23rd annual ski clinic held at Hunter/Windham mountains


HUNTER, N.Y. - The "Ukrainian Men's Senior Ski Team in Exile" held its 23rd annual ski clinic at Hunter and Windham mountains in late January. The annual event was organized by the skiing coordinator of the Carpathian Ski Club (KLK)-U.S.A., Orest Fedash. The racing clinic was organized by Erko Palydowycz, KLK-U.S.A. president, who was able to enlist Karl Plattner, two-time world champion downhill skier, for additional pointers. The annual clinic provided an opportunity for the seniors to further improve their skiing abilities and speed. During the four-day clinic racers were able to compete on a NASTAR course similar to the one that will be used on March 11 for the annual KLK ski races. The annual event, geared for the whole family, will be held at Ski Windham with an awards dinner the same night at Hunter Mountain. Trophies and medals are to be awarded in all age groups.
