The public will vote for the essay of their choice. Voting will take place from November 1 through 16. On November 29th, the winner will be announced. The author of the winning essay will receive a Saddleback Gift Card and the teacher featured in the essay will be given a Saddleback PEAK Pass for the 2013-14 Season.

SKI RACE CLUB IS GROWING 
The primary purpose of the SaddleBack Ski Club (SBSC) is to provide a high level of technical and tactical skiing skills for intermediate and above skiers aged 8-18. It is a complete team effort that involves professionally certified and experienced coaches, athletes, parents and mountain management. As a US Skiing Association (USSA) and Maine Alpine Racing Association (MARA) member club, the SBSC promotes competitive ski racing. We provide an environment where young athletes learn the sport of ski racing in an enjoyable, supportive manner that encourages personal growth and fulfillment, not only as athletes, but as human beings. For more information, contact Program Director Ron Bonnevie: ron.bonnevie@gmail.com
