Bubblecuffers

Good Morning Everyone,

Minicuffers, Bubblecuffers, Junior Pros, & Big Mountain Program are all a go for this afternoon’s session.  At 12:00 your coaches will be at lineup to ski with you.  Keep your eye on the lift update on Sugarloaf.com or WSKI for updates. 

Since we didn’t go this morning, we are offering Minicuffers this afternoon starting at 12:00 with the rest of the programs.  We have our trusty Moose Cabooses ready to get your children safely up the hill so there will be skiing going on today!

Any questions please call the Perfect Turn office at 237-6924 sorry for any inconvenience and thank you.

Dear Bubblecuffer Families,

 We are choosing to postpone the start of our Bubblecuffer, Minicuffer, Big Mountain, and Junior Professional programs from December 10-11 until Tuesday December 27. 

 As you’re likely aware, the weather during the past two weeks has presented numerous challenges for our snowmaking team. As a result, we’ve decided to allow our snowmakers and Mother Nature some more time to get the mountain into shape and provide you and your children with the high quality experience you’ve come to expect from our junior programs. 

 Since we are pushing back our start date, we are going to tack on another weekend, March 24^th and 25^th, to the end of the season long junior program season.  Please make a note of it on your calendars.

 Once again Bubblecuffers will not be starting on the 10^th and 11^th.  Our first day will be December 27^th, 8:30 up in the King Pine Room.  Letters with your children’s groupings will be coming next week.   As always, please give us a call if you have any questions.

We also have a website just for Bubblecuffers, www.bubblecuffers.com which will have up to date information about the program, calendars, and the odd photos and videos. 

Thank you, have a great holiday and see you all in the King Pine room on the morning of December 27^th.

Sincerely,

Tom Butler

Director

Sugarloaf Perfect Turn Ski and Snowboard School

Start of the 40th Anniversary Season is fast approaching.  We have our line up of coaches all set for the program and groups are beginning to take shape.  Spread the word, if you have friends who haven’t signed up yet, they need to get their applications in ASAP!

Skiing and riding were good on the first day of the mountain opening and with 8-12 falling right now, it’s going to get better really fast!  See you all in the coming weeks and remember December 10 is just around the corner!

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone,

Tom

Welcome back Bubblecuffer, Jr. Pro, Big Mt., and Minicuffer families.  This is the 40th anniversary season of our Sugarloaf junior programs.  That is not a typo, 40 years we’ve been skiing with you and your children and we’re looking forward to this season like no other.  A new lift and expanding acreage have us primed for a great season.  Our first day is December 10 so start watching lots of ski and snowboard videos and stop by to say hello.  We look forward to seeing all of you in the coming weeks and Happy Birthday Bubblecuffers!

Tom Butler

Dear Bubblecuffers,

Yes, it is here sad, but true, the last weekend of Bubblecuffers for the 2011 ski season.  We want to thank all of you for your outstanding support and attendance in the program this season.  The consistent attendance this year was amazing, and truly, is an important factor to the success of your child’s improvement.  Thanks again from all the staff of the program.

 A few final items as regards to the last weekend:

 –  The legendary “Hot Dog Cookout” will press on this Sat. @ 11:00 at the bottom of the Birches.  Menu:  Hot Dogs, chips, salad, fruit, whoopie pies, and drinks. Cost: $5.00 (Adult beverages will be available in the Shipyard)

–  The final lollipop race will take place @ 9:30 Sunday in the Race arena on Boardwalk.

–  Race arena Saturday……… As many of you know Matt Tinker, Supervisor of Jr. Pros was named to the Eastern Team of the Professional Ski Instructors of America.  There are many costs associated with the training and travel of being a member in this elite squad, one of which is spring training at Snowbird, Utah.  The Bubblecuffer race arena is donating all proceeds Saturday to Matt for his training fund for this upcoming trip. Please stop by and take a run if you can. If you wish to donate without racing just see any of us throughout the weekend.

 Once again, thank you all for the success of another splendid season here at “The Loaf”.

 Until next year,

 Lani  Tapley, Steve Moore, Matt Tinker, & Charlie Randall

Hello everybody.  Unfortunately the weather isn’t working for us this weekend so we’re postponing the cookout until next Saturday.

Cookout is $5 per person, families welcome.  We’ll keep our fingers crossed for better weather. 

Thanks for a great season everybody and see you Saturday,

Lani
