The award for March in relation to the 6.00 – 7.15 lesson has been presented to Alex Lutwyche. Alex is one of our younger skiers and has worked really hard in training during March, especially when we have been working using the small gates and focusing on line, ready for the start of the National Races.
Pendle races enjoyed medal success at the first of the Stoke fun races recently.
We had five racers representing the club at the first event of the summer series at Stoke with a number of parents also assisting Stoke as Race Officials.
It was an overcast Saturday morning when everyone booked in at around 8.30, with the course open for practice at 9.00. The morning saw some drizzle for the two timed runs which saw great performances from all those from Pendle.
Eleanor Eaves 1st in the U10 girls, Josef Huppach & Robert Holmes putting in 1st & 2nd in the U12 boys, Jonathan Eaves 2nd U14 and John Holmes 1st in the over 19 category.
After a quick lunch break and prize giving the course was reset and the day brightened and stayed dry. The afternoon saw exciting head to head racing with the morning performances putting our racers in groups one, two and the lowest in an impressive group 7 out of the 12.
Everything wrapped up by 2pm to allow parents to provide a leisurely taxi service home to the children.
