Day 102 - Blake

Second day in a row of dealing with four and five year olds.  Yesterday we had seven between two of us and today we had ten between three of us (well, one of the three was my "helper" who's in a mentor program).  Regardless, he was still an able body helping us strap in bindings, zip up jackets, clip up helmets, etc etc.

Numbers dropped today with only 60 kids in snowboard lessons but that's still a busy and hectic day.  Sign in's usually don't finish until around 9:30am and even at that time, some random kid always shows up like 20 minutes later.

A local kid named Blake rocked up today.  Blake is only three years old but he was given special permission to take a lesson.  To make a long story short, Blake is going to be the next Lil Ripper Grom in the Whistler Snowboard Club.  He could side slip on his board the second he put it on his feet.  When Mom signed him out, I told he that he needed to be in Club next season so she's going to sign him up for Saturdays and she's going to request me to be his coach.  I'm hoping to take Blake out on a couple of my days off before the season ends as well.

Weather wise, it was another warm one with no new snow but not quite as sunny as yesterday.  Snow base is currently 256cm.
