Another SUCCESSFUL GMVS Camp in Vermont

We are now back in the Midwest with just have spent an amazing 8 days at the 2019 GMVS Summer Camp. This year 6 amazing athletes from Wisconsin & Minnesota join us for the GMVS camp. Athletes from 9 states, many who took top three placements at the 2019 Junior Nationals, along with athletes headed to the Youth Olympic Games & More. Coaching staff was comprised of a great core group of 6 representing Eastern Ski Academies, NCAA Programs along with Elite & Junior Programs. Also joining us were three former GMVS athletes now skiing for Harvard, Bowdoin & Dartmouth.

Our Trip left on Saturday, heading across the state picking up athletes on our way East. Trekking across the US, visiting Lake Erie and the Adirondacks along the way. Beginning Monday athletes arrived at camp and headed off to the first workout – Pole Hike & Run up Sugarbush Mountain! Day two began with a morning run & movement and leading into an OD Double Pole workout & River Run. Day Three continued with Classic Progressions with “MooseHufs” and Bounding. Wrapping up the day with a Strength Circuit workout in the Race Performance Center at GMVS. Day Four was “Jericho” and the Rollerski Track. Day Five we had Skate Agility on the awesome ramps made by NENSA‘s Justin Beckwith. Followed by a recovery run & mobility work. Day Six was the App-Gap Challenge Rollerski Race. Day Seven wrapped up with some amazing OD Hike/Trail Runs along the Long Trail.

Thanks again to the Athletes & Coaches for a Fantastic Week!

GMVS Camp

This summer a wonderful opportunity presented itself for athletes from the Midwest. Green Mountain Valley School (GMVS) in Waitsfield Vermont hosted a Summer Camp from July 31st- Aug 4th. This camp is geared for Young Athletes in the U14-U23 categories. This past March at the NENSA U16 Championships in Maine GMVS Nordic Director Colin Rodgers extended and invitation to our Coach Kris to bring a small group of athletes from the Midwest to the camp. Planning began in earnest in late March.

Well this past week our Coach Kris headed off with two Midwest athletes to the camp. Traveling from Wisconsin by car east. With visits to Niagara Falls along the way and a scenic drive thru the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York they arrives in Vermont.  With a full week of events the athletes came from across the New England, the Midwest & even Norway. From Fantastic OD runs at Sugarbush Resort, OD Rollerskis, Rollerski Agility work, Strength & Conditioning and a Rollerski TT at the Ethan Allen Biathlon Range in Jericho Vermont. Yes a TT on a ROLLERSKI Track! Participating also in the TT event were athletes from Mansfield Nordic & Craftsbury.

Now everyone has arrived back in the Midwest and the enthusiasm of the upcoming season is HIGH. Plans are already underway for the Summer 2018 event. For 2018 there will be the similar MAX number from the Midwest of 6 athletes, so if you would like to snag one of those spots let us know. Email us at GMVS Camp 18
