U.S. Ski & Snowboard And Woodward Park City To Empower Female Athletes Through Mini-Camp Experience
U.S. Ski & Snowboard continues to foster and cultivate a culture of diversity and inclusion in a new and exciting opportunity for girls ages 12 and up. In partnership with Woodward Park City, U.S. Ski & Snowboard is hosting a Girls’ Mini-Camp March 6-7, 2020.
During this two-day camp, participants will work with U.S. Ski & Snowboard coaches and athletes to develop acrobatic skills in a safe learning environment. The camp begins on Friday evening at the Center of Excellence, home of U.S. Ski & Snowboard - the same training facility used by Olympic athletes - where participants will get comfortable jumping and twisting on the trampoline developing crucial air-awareness. On Saturday morning they’ll take their new, honed skills to snow at Woodward Park City to ski and ride with some of the best athletes in the world.
