Gunnison Nordic Team
The Gunnison Nordic Team is a small but mighty junior racing program, encouraging kids ages 8-18 to be the best they can be - on and off their skis!!
Coached by former Olympic coach, Kendall Butts, and his wife Ingrid, 3x Olympian, GNT offers decades of coaching expertise, experience and wisdom.
GNT offers 3 levels of participation depending on age, attitude and ability. The Development team meets 2x/week, the Competition team meets 3x/week and our new Comp-Plus team meets 4x/week. Both the classic and skate/freestyle ski techniques are coached as well as training, racing and recovery strategies and tactics. We encourage Gunnison's youth to explore the adventuresome world of cross country skiing, while gaining strength, fitness, character, determination and focus.
CB Mountain Sports Team
Crested Butte Mountain Resort is pleased to offer its eighth season of comprehensive mountain sports programs that are available to a wide variety of athletes, from kids learning to ski and ride to driven student athletes. Crested Butte Mountain Sports Team (CBMST) offers various levels of participation beginning with weekend development programs to full-time, competitive based programming.
CBMST Development Programs focus on bringing kids exhibiting strong fundamentals by taking their personal skills to a higher level in alpine racing, snowboarding, freeride, and telemark skiing. Development Programs will introduce athletes to tactical and technical approaches while taking advantage of all the terrain the mountain has to offer.
The primary goal for our athletes is to set them up for success. With this in mind, we have created a developmental pipeline for our participants. This approach aids in creating an environment that allows coaches to focus on athletes’ developmental and skill level in a similar age range. They move through a system that teaches fundamental skills in technical skiing and progresses them towards tactical skills within their specific discipline.
The following is an outline of the development pipeline for athletes and the disciplines offered for each team:
JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT TEAM “JR. DEVO'S”
DEVELOPMENT TEAM “DEVO’S”
The Development Team is designed to continue to allow our athletes to grow in their specific discipline, with the commitment to local and regional...
COMPETITIVE TEAM PROGRAM
The Competitive Team Program is designed to support athletes in their specific discipline throughout the winter, with individual coaching for athletes...
Crested Butte Community School
Gunnison Elementary School
Gunnison Elementary School is once again sponsoring the Alpine Ski Program offered by Crested Butte Mountain Resort (CBMR). Fourth grade students are invited to participate in the CBMR ski/snowboard program. Participation in the ski program is not mandatory; however, it is an important part of our curriculum and benefits students in many ways. We strongly encourage all students to participate.
4th grade ski dates: 4th graders ski on four Wednesdays in a row:
Departure: The ski bus leaves the school each morning at 8:30 a.m.
Return: All students will arrive at GES around 5:30 pm each ski day – weather and/or bus arrival at Mt. Crested Butte permitting.
Money: Crested Butte SnowSports Foundation has generously donated $20 of the overall cost of the program again this year for all 4th and 5th grade students dropping the cost of the program for students to $125.
*The cost of the program covers all day lessons and transportation. Ski/snowboard rental equipment and lift tickets are provided at no cost by CBMR.
