Forge Snow Team
About the Team:
Under the organization of Bogus Basin Ski Education Foundation (http://bbsef.org), Forge offers the opportunity for students to take part in Alpine, Nordic and Snowboard competitions. The team offers students the opportunity to better their skills, practice sportsmanship, and meet other racers.
Snow Team Philosophy:
1) Provide a safe environment on the slopes in which to participate.
2) Encourage students to represent and compete for their school in a life sport activity.
This provides a venue for many students to represent their school that might not
otherwise.
3) Provide a level of competition in which the maximum number of students can participate.
Forge’s Role in Snow Team:
The advisor for Forge’s team, Megan Furois, will be present the morning of all races to provide support with registration and race day logistics. We will not be hosting any practices for this season. Forge will be participating in lifesports in early February in which snow team members are highly encouraged to participate for a day of skiing/snowboarding and a lesson to improve their skills.
