What should i bring to practice?
For all of our programs, we asked participants to bring the following:
For Kickers and Gliders and JR DEVO XC, we provide the skis, boots, and poles for all participants, but we do encourage families who can to buy their own equipment.
For SR DEVO XC, we strongly encourage all participants to bring their own equipment. We can provide equipment for those in their first year on the SR DEVO team or those who are participating in the Health hand Lifestyle program.
- Water and a way to carry it (water belt, water bottle waist pack, etc.)
- Clothes appropriate for the weather (we recommend dressing in layers and bringing extras in case of changing weather)
- A snack for during and after practice (you may not need them, but it is always nice to have them just in case)

How does the team communicate with athletes and families?
We use email as our official communication platform. Head coaches may also use GroupMe or WhatsApp for last-minute or trip communication.
Where can I get equipment?
You can purchase all of the equipment you need directly at Soldier Hollow. We have partnerships with both Rossignol and Toko, so the team can get a discount on both brands. Keep a lookout for our Team Night in the fall, where families can get large discounts on all of the ski and waxing equipment you could need.
How can i get involved as a volunteer?
do we offer financial assistance?
We do offer scholarships. Some programs will have an inline self-selected scholarship option that you can select during registration. For other programs, you will have to apply for a scholarship. Applications for our spring/summer programs are due by May 15. Applications for our Fall/Winter programs are due by October 15. We do offer a travel scholarship called the Howard Peterson Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship is not needs-based and is based on the strength of the application.
