Week of Oct 16th - Ninja Camp Weekend!!!


Another week of great weather as we get ready for this weekend's "Ninja Camp".


Look for an email on Wednesday will full details on the weekend.  You can reference our past email, as well as some of the notes below, for a general sense of the weekend.

Tuesday - More Strength and Fun at Hardwood

Please meet at The Palace at 5:20PM so we can get moving by 5:30PM.  Temperatures look to be mild, but when the sun goes down it's always cooler.

We start with Soccer Baseball for the first 30min and then will do a group "conversation-paced" ski-run.  BRING POLES and a HEADLAMP this week!

Practice will run until 7:00PM.

Saturday & Sunday - Fall "Ninja" Camp

The weather is looking great this weekend, but we will have so many fun activities planned.

With the Senior Skiers practicing at Mt. St. Louis on Saturday, it seemed like a good opportunity to join them!  I hope everyone is ready for another amazing view from the top of the ski hill!

Please arrive by 9:15AM so that we can get Ski Walking by 9:30AM.  Practice will run until 11:30AM.

We are asking parents to drive back to our house (just 8-10min) and enjoy your packed lunch with us on our deck.  Parents are welcome to enjoy the area in the afternoon, or simply drop their kids off and go!

We'll do some activities in the area on Saturday afternoon and we will provide dinner on Saturday night and breakfast on Sunday morning

All the kids need to bring is camping gear (i.e. sleeping bag and team-up with others for tents) as well as their "sports" gear for the weekend.

We'll do some more activity on Sunday morning and pick-up will be on Sunday from our place (just 8-10min from HSB) just before lunchtime.

Full details on the weekend will be forthcoming in an email later this week once the weather forecast is more certain.

As for the rest of your week, here are some suggestions for other activities should you need them:

  • Be active every day, get enough sleep and be sure to always eat healthy
  • Running – Try for 20-30min.  Start easy, but find some hills if you can!
  • Cycling – Try for 45-60min, either on-road or off-road
  • Fun at Recess – Play Basketball, Touch Football, Grounders, or just about anything that has you moving and jumping
  • Strength Training – Try some of the exercises that we do at practice on your own.  These can all be done either inside or outside and I would encourage everyone to try to do one additional Run/Strength session each week.  Perhaps combine them with a run in your local park or forest!
  • Be sure to keep working on your mobility either through stretching, yoga, pilates, etc.  There are LOTS of great resources online
  • We know that most of you are quite active between practices, just be sure you are doing something for 45-60min most every day.
