From Matt Gnoza, US Freestyle Ski Team:
Due to a conflict with recently adjusted US Ski Team Training Camp dates. I need to adjust the dates of the Eastern Freestyle Mogul 200 Clinic scheduled for this coming weekend November 22 and 23, 2014.
The new dates are December 1 and 2, 2014.
Hopefully the new mid-week dates will give us a few more participants and a less crowded hill.
I apologize for any inconvenience, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
