Ski season 2012-13

provide a number of lessons in beautiful conditions
at Arrowhead Park, Huntsville, Grey County, and
Bechtel Park, Waterloo.
Thanks to all who took on
the challenge of learning the skills of cross country
skiing with enthusiam and determination.
We saw some amazing skill development and lots of
smiles at the end of the day!

Ski for Life is aimed at encouraging people in
the communities of Ontario to participate in an
activity which we are certain will target one
of the most crucial risk factors for cardiovascular
disease, namely lack of physical activity. |

The term Ski for Life reflects two different aspects
of life:
we
are stressing the vitality and longevity of life
by promoting a healthy lifestyle which can prevent
cardiovascular disease from putting a premature
end to one's life by the occurrence of debilitating
heart attacks or strokes.
by
starting with an active, enjoyable, fun pursuit
for youngsters at age eight or nine, we are promoting
a lifelong pattern of activity which can be carried
on with vigour into one's sixties, seventies,
and eighties. This is in marked contrast to other
sporting activities for youngsters such as hockey,
basketball, or baseball which tend to come to
an end during one's late teenage years. |

how you can sign up for an ongoing session,
