The sliding season is fast approaching. While I don't yet have a club
sliding schedule for Lake Placid from USA Luge yet, I've been told to
expect that it will predominantly be the same as the past few years.
Specifically, it'll be Saturday evening sessions beginning in January
and hopefully extending into April.

For those that are going through "Sliding Withdrawal" (which includes
Yours Truly), Club sliding has begun out in Park City. The annual
Ice Engineer's Open race is coming up in two weeks and about a half
dozen members of the Adirondack club are making the trip out to slide
in that event.

While the time is tight, if there are any members that sliding
confidently from Start 4 at Lake Placid and would like to make the
trip out, please drop me a note and I can provide details.
