Third Week of Camp

During the 3rd week of camp, we were lucky enough to have Allan Serrano, former head coach of the nordic ski teams at the University of Vermont and at Northern Michigan University, to work as our visiting coach. He worked with the campers on their classic technique going over a number of dryland drills and then heading out on the roads to implement what they just learned. In these photos, we see the kids working on their double poling after watching Allan demonstrate the technique.







Here we see a camper trying their double poling.













Good job.











Keep those hands high on the return.














The campers are listening and watching as Allan talks about the doble pole technique.











Allan shows what he just talked about.

















Good forward arm swing.












Good follow through.













Listen and watch and you will learn.
