LNST supports three levels or teams:

GRADES 3-4, Development Team - Elementary School (ES) LNST coaches teach how to ski through fun and games. On Monday & Thursday evenings, ES skiers meet December through February from 4:00-5:30 at Minocqua Winter Park (MWP). From games in front of the chalet to getting comfortable on the trails, your kids will have fun and stay active all winter long! 

  

GRADES 5-8, Development Team - Middle School (MS) LNST coaches work with MS skiers who are beginners to those that want to race competitively. MS meets December through February from 4:00-5:30 on Monday & Thursday evenings at MWP and, optionally, on Tuesday evenings at local trails . The MS race schedule has lots of options to explore racing across the region from Rhinelander, Hayward, and Wausau over January and February. LNST provides support for your child as they learn the in’s & out's of racing.
