June 2, 2008 – The BMA August camp that runs from August 10-18 welcomes Jesper Johnsson, a member of the coaching team at the Jaerpen Ski Gymnasium in Sweden, as a guest coach for the camp. Jesper joined Jaerpen when Magnar Dalen moved to take over the Finninsh National team, and often is the “voice” at major Swedish events. A good coach and a lot of fun!

Burke’s August Camp is meant to evaluate and build on the summer’s training. It will be geared to different levels of experience and different ages but it is focused at athletes who have followed a summer plan. Assessment, and making individual plans for getting the most out of the remaining months of the fall is the primary goal of the camp. Interval sessions, and intensity will play a significant role. This is a Burke Team camp, but we eagerly welcome skiers from other programs, or those who have primarily trained on their own and want to get an idea of where they are. Camp to be held in the Adirondacks.

Registration: Cost $450
