Camp cancelled for day, Saturday May 19th

Posted on by

Alyeska Resort has cancelled skiing for the day due to high avalanche conditions which has also forced us to cancel camp today.  The entire day (including dryland) is cancelled.

We will keep everyone updated as we receive mountain info and are able to make decisions.

Yesterday was a great day on the hill for everyone and we will just have to stay tuned for daily weather conditions.

RTC Locker Clean-Out April 28 & 29

Posted on by

Athletes need to vacate lockers this weekend.

Please clean-up the debris in your locker and take all clothing, skis, and equipment HOME. Your locker should be left completely empty and clean for the next athlete. Please attach the lock to the swinging door of your locker.

It would be great to have 4-5 volunteers remove rubber mats, sweep, and scrape wax from the tuning tables and floor. Volunteers will get choice lockers next year!

May Summer Camp athletes will have locker room access during CAMP, beginning May 18. There will be no access to the locker room after April 29th.
