"New England Telemark provided an amazing 2-day program
for 13 students and chaperones from Falmouth High School this January
at Shawnee Peak. The Intersession Program at FHS focuses on hands-on
educational experiences that stimulate a student's passion to learn,
and New England Telemark absolutely accomplished that and more. In the
capable hands of 3 instructors from New England Telemark, 13 kids and
2 chaperones from FHS, who had never been on telemark gear before, were
treated to 2 days of educational theory and practice that were stimulating,
motivating, and challenging, and fun. Students are already asking for "Telemark
II" for next year!

Hi to all you supporters of the Jay Peak telefest last weekend. I've
never skied before, was interested in learning tele so decided to make the
long drive to Jay. The seemingly endless 4 hours in the car was completely
worth it. Everyone helping out at the event was awesome. The volunteers
from netelemark were professional and first class...I took clinics with Ron
and Mary (hubby and wife dynamic duo) who were both spectacular. The
EMS guys, an employee from the Burlington, VT store (can't remember his name...he
was taking care of the boots) and Mike from North Conway, were exceptionally
helpful and friendly. As was everyone else with whom I had contact.
Many thanks for all the hard work! You've won a new free-heel addict. =)

Last weekend at J was great!!! I took a clinic with Mickey and
now, not only do I tele better, but got the summer cobwebs out of my skiing
in record time. He saved me a lot of bad
turns! thanks and will be looking to start the next season off the same way.

Thanks for a great New Hampshire festival.. With Jean's great
instruction that included to pretend I was wearing a short skirt, corking wine
and pouring wine, plus a days worth of practice and I
now consider myself to be the second best telemarker ever!
Thanks for the memories and great instruction Jean!

Biff and Matt, Once again the whole festival was fantastic. We
really enjoyed both days. Thanks for all your energy and effort to pull this
off. On the specific side-my clinics with Paul Smith were excellent. The circle
ski and shadowing a buddy really got the whole group talking and giving each
other great feadback. i was glad to be a part of it.

doing. Keep it happening!
