The
Alternative Sports club is designed to reach out to students who do not
participate in "traditional" sports. Three times per year there are
field trips to various skateboard parks, which are open to 7-9th graders. Eighth graders are also invited to
join us on one, two or all three trips to Bear Creek Mountain in January and
February to enjoy Snowboarding or skiing. Lessons and rentals are
available. 9th graders are invited to go on 5 trips to Blue Mountain in
January and February as well. All students can also continue their
affiliation with the club by going on the Blue Mountain trips throughout their high school
years. There are no regular meetings, although periodically we will have a
video party or host another event. There is nothing special to do to
become a member, just sign up and come to any and or all of the events
available.
