I may be relocating from WI to northwest Indiana and will need to find a race program for my kids (9 and 7...with the 3 year old closing fast!!!!).  I am familiar with programs in the UP of Michigan...but way to far.  Are there any programs in the southern part of Michigan, or northern Indiana?

 

Thanks!

Check with Bittersweet or Timber Ridge. Both have a very active Nastar/League program for adults, so they probably have even stronger kids programs.

 

I believe that Kermit Anderson coaches at Timber Ridge, and he's really, really good.

Check the USSA web site and look for the Member Club Directory.

CUSSA held a race at Cannonsburg near Grand Rapids this past season and WinAlpine runs a training program there also. Timber Ridge has a program but I don't know much about it. Bittersweet is owned by a former Michigan high school champion, so I would think that they have a program. I checked their website but, it didn't give any detail.

Great Junior program, Mark is the Head Coach.

Also, a good adult race program.

 

HS ski racing is starting to take hold at this area also.

 

Look under programs on Swiss website.
