OREGON HIGH SCHOOL
WINTER BREAK SKI RACE CAMP
Open to OISRA & OSSA racers
DECEMBER 19-20-21-22, 2011
4 days. Train 1, 2, 3 or all 4 days.
@TIMBERLINE
LODGE
**December 12, 2011 update: There is simply not enough snowpack at Ski
Bowl for gate training, so our camp will take place at Timberline.
The long range weather forecast doesn't show any significant snow, so we went
ahead and made the decision to officially move the camp to Timberline.
We'll meet in the Wy'East day lodge near the fireplace each morning at 9am.
Please disregard any references to "ski bowl" elsewhere on this website below!
We'll train all 4 days at Timberline regardless of future snow storms between
now and the end of camp. We've had to move our camp to Timberline 1 or 2
other times in past years due to low snow levels, so we are more than prepared
to make this change of venue and Timberline knows we are coming.

Testimonials from our high school
camps:
Robin, Sean,
Thanks so much for providing instruction for
our son, Lito, and all the other kids this
week. It was a thrill to see them all up
there. The pace of learning was truly
amazing, like watching a plant grow before
your eyes. See you at the races!
Bill Nicolai (OES ski
team parent)
Dear Mr Cressy,
Thanks you very much for the excellent
ski camp experience. Hunor had a great
time, learned a lot and decided to race
on the Lincoln HS team during the next
season.
Sincerely,
Marta Somogyi-Mann (Lincoln high school
ski team parent)
Robin and Sean,
Taylor got home tonight and talked
non-stop through dinner and into the
evening about his experience at camp
these past 4 days. He had a great
experience and so much fun. Thank
you for your time and energies! I
know this is a tough time of the
year, so busy before the holidays
and we really appreciate the
opportunity for Taylor to train with
you. We loved the photo’s and
update you sent each evening,
(especially since we couldn’t reach
Taylor on his cell due to a weak
signal). It was great to get the
daily reports and photos. He
learned so much from you at the camp
and had a ton of fun. I have to
tell you that you can double your
fees for camp and it would be worth
every penny! Taylor would love to
do it again so keep us in mind when
you schedule the next one!
Happy holidays!
Laura J. Gentry (Tigard
high school ski team
parent)

thank you enough
for the
