Olympian, AJ Kitt Skis At Sugar This Friday
Sugar Mountain, North Carolina - Sugar Mountain Resort will host the Nature Valley NASTAR Pacesetter trials Friday, December 21, 2007. Nature Valley NASTAR's traveling pacesetter AJ Kitt, a former U.S. Ski Team star and four-time Olympian will compete against Sugar Mountain Resort pacesetters and other regional ski area pacesetters to establish their own certified NASTAR Handicap against the Par Time or "0" handicap. Individual resort pacesetters use their certified handicaps to set the Par Time at their local Nature Valley NASTAR course and in turn give each participant a NASTAR handicap.
Competition is scheduled to begin at 10:00 am on Big Birch. Skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to watch some fantastic competition. AJ Kitt, four-time Olympian and Krista Schmidinger, two-time Olympian will be among the competitors to watch.
Developed by SKI Magazine in 1968, NASTAR (NAtional STAndard Race) is the largest recreational ski and snowboard race program in the world. Since the program's inception, more than 6 million skiers and snowboarders have raced NASTAR. NASTAR’s mission is to provide a fun, competitive and easily accessible racing program that, through the development of a handicap system, allows racers of all ages and abilities a means to compare their race results to other competitors across the country regardless of when and where they race.
Sugar Mountain Resort has been a NASTAR resort for more than 30 years and is proud to be one of six resorts across the country to host the Nature Valley NASTAR Sanctioned Regional Pacesetting Trials this season.
For more information on NASTAR programs please go to www.nastar.com. Sugar Mountain Resort can be contacted by calling 800-SUGARMT or visiting www.skisugar.com.
