News & Events

Mount Snow Golf TournamentMSA Boarders Head for Rev Tour
Three Mount Snow Academy snowboarders, Chris Abel (Keene, NH), Christina DeJoseph (Palmyra, NY), and Marshall Lobell (Middletown, NJ), are at Copper Mountain, Colorado, with coach Will Rivera. They are preparing for competition at the first stop in the seventh annual Revolution Tour. The Rev Tour, known as a showcase for up-and-coming riders, is a series of open competitions for riders aged 13 and over.

Later seasons stop will be at North Star at Tahoe, Otsego Resort in Michigan, and our own Mount Snow.

Kelly Clark Wins Grand Prix…Yet Again
It’s getting to be a habit. MSA grad and two-time Olympian Kelly Clark has flown again, scoring her record-breaking 25th career Grand Prix victory in the halfpipe at Copper Mountain this week. Clark will be moving on to the Dew Tour at Breckenridge next week.

Devin Logan Dominates in New Zealand
While some of us were sweltering through a New England August, MSA alum freeskier Devin Logan was in New Zealand capturing big air. Logan won both women's superpipe and slope style competitions at the New Zealand Winter Games, achieving, among other moves, a rodeo 5 and 7 tailgrab. She dominated the women's field, leading the scores by 20 points. Last spring, Logan was named to the inaugural US Freeskiing Slopestyle Pro Team.

Community Service in the Valley
The Deerfield River Valley experienced tremendous damage from Tropical Storm Irene this summer, and has shown extraordinary resiliency as it rebuilds homes, lives and businesses. Despite busy academic and training schedules, many MSA students have committed time to helping out. One group spent an afternoon assisting a local Wilmington business to clean up storm damage preparatory to re-opening for the ski season. A group of other student volunteers helped set up hundreds of luminarias around Snow Lake as part of Bright Lights, a Deerfield Valley celebration of both the holidays and the revitalization of the valley following the flooding. Lighting the lake was part of the kick-off of a seasonal round of Bright Lights events around the valley.
