Fall Camp 2022: Registration Open

By Adam Terko on 5 September, 2022 in Junior Blog, Uncategorized

Last year we held our first-ever Fall Camp. This is common among many college teams and helps split the long gap between the start of the school year/fall training and the anticipation of Thanksgiving Camp. It’s a great way to get in some volume training and be energized by a different location and atmosphere to really focus-in on training.

In 2021 we visited North Conway, in part because we had been away for a few years with Mountain Camp being in VT. You can read a recap of that trip here.

This year, we are heading to Lake Placid! We’ll be visiting the area for the rollerski races in late September, but in October it’ll again be a great base for some volume with rollerski loops, hiking, and great trails every direction.

You can find the registration for this camp here. Camp takes place October 14-16 (Friday thru Sunday).

The seasons are changing, and Fall Training begins in earnest with the return to school and the countdown to winter! Our fall is very busy, with lots of fun trips like Keys/Climb to the Castle and Fall Camp in Lake Placid, as well as our own rollerski race, the FreeFall, on September 18th.

Whether you are an XC runner or other fall sport athlete looking to keep your skiing sharp, or interested in training full-time with MNC Academy, there is an option to fit your interest, ability, and availability.

Find all of our registrations for these opportunities below on the MNC Registration page below.

Note that this is the final program to utilize your ’21/’22 Membership number: for winter we will re-open singups for new Membership numbers for our Juniors, along with incoming BKL and Masters skiers for the upcoming winter.

There’s plenty more to get ready for and involved in, too…

MNC Annual Fund 2022

The 2021/2022 season will probably always be remembered as the first year “back” from many pandemic restrictions and adjustments. Training in groups became more feasible, and we all enjoyed getting to connect on the snow again. Mass start races brought people together again in a wholly different sense, and fun trips and camps helped unite members of all ages. But while the season could be remembered for its return to normalcy, we’d also be remiss not to remember it as a huge step forward in club achievements and milestones. As we look ahead to more experiences we hope you’ll consider a contribution!
