Recreational snowsports started their season with hopeful individuals waiting for the snow. During dryland practice, when the temperature was not cold enough, recreational snowsports enjoyed a plethora of activity options. These included soccer, hiking, rock climbing, ultimate frisbee, and pickleball. Students could also experience a new program of short routine stretching and endurance training to ensure they were ready for the snow.
After the refreshing break, students were able to finally enjoy skiing or snowboarding. This was thanks to the cold weather, which allowed the snow machines to make artificial snow. The frosty mountain was filled with joyful students merrily enjoying their snowsport mediums on both Langly’s and Amy’s run. For individuals new to the sport, coaches were able to guide them to find fun when skiing on the hill. The Ski Patrol team has also been excellent with keeping fellow students safe from icy boulders to cliffs and ensuring everyone on the hill is in safe hands. With more signs of the genuine arrival of snow, the students could not be more delighted by the fantastic news.
As a student who has seen all the aspects, I find this season to be as intriguing as ever. I have enjoyed the various activities given to me by my fellow friends, and the warmup routines felt rejuvenating instead of cumbersome. After the break, I found myself captivated in the snow, skiing down the hill that looks best when covered in snow. Skiing down with friends is a true joy I will never forget after my time in Eaglebrook ends. Every time I go down the slopes, I feel a small sense of gratitude to go to a school with its own ski hill. I cannot wait to continue this season with high hopes for more snow, and I look forward to skiing more often with my friends in Eaglebrook.
