Men’s Ski Clinic at Vail Colorado / Dec. 1-7, 2008

You already know Vail is ranked among the best ski areas in the world, but that is only part of the reason our members come back year after year for the Men’s Clinic. The #1 reason given for such loyalty is “getting together with the boys!” A group of guys enjoying a week of unparalleled skiing, awesome instruction from our world-class instructors and evenings filled with relaxation and comradeship – what could be better!

Our Men’s Clinic will be formatted the same as last year: small groups and 5 days on the mountain getting your skiing techniques polished. For the 11th year running, our award-winning instructors from Keystone will be on hand for exclusive instruction of OTHGI members to help them improve their skiing, stamina and comfort on the slopes. These instructors win the highest praises from our members and we are thrilled they will be joining us again this year.

The Marriott Mountain Resort is a natural to host our Clinic again with its superb location in the heart of Lionshead. The resort is a short walk away from the Eagle Bahn gondola and is known for its luxuriously appointed comfortable rooms, hospitable staff and fine dining. The Avalanche Pub and the Ocotillo Restaurant offer great food in a relaxed setting – a perfect place to meet friends, old and new, and brag about your successful day on the slopes.

New this year – we will be hosting a hospitality reception, along with a talk by curator Justin Henderson, at the Colorado Ski Museum/Hall of Fame. The Museum was established in 1976 with a mission to preserve and appreciate the legacy of skiing in Colorado. Within the Museum’s

collection are over 1,500 photographs, artifacts, equipment and clothing representing over 130 years of Colorado skiing. This promises to be a special evening.

Your trip will start off with registration at Charter Sports (inside the Marriott) followed by a welcome dinner where your OTHGI host will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. The next morning after a hearty breakfast, you will meet your instructors and set goals for the week. By the end of the clinic, you’ll be amazed at the improvement in your skills. Your personal goals are up to you. Our goals for this trip: good organization, no hassles, a compatible group of skiers, excellent instruction and a peak learning experience.

So, if this appeals to you - don’t be left out – come join us for a second outstanding year at Vail!
