Vacation Week  – We will be off from December 21 – January 1. Here are some ideas on how to stay active over school vacation.

  •  Yard Skiing – If you have snow at home try yard skiing. Make a little track, build a jump or ski after dinner with your headlamp.
  • Tomasi Meadow skiing is  open to the community –  Tomasi Conditions and Grooming Updates
  • Sleepy Hollow and Craftsbury are also great local-ish options and they both make snow.
  • NENSA Ski Bingo is back this year. It’s a fun skiing challenge with prizes.
  • Ice Skating – lots of local indoor community rinks and most rent skates.
