Winter Term Send Off

BMA officially recognized its winter term students with a musical round coordinated by Lindley van der Linde and supported by Rachel Norton, Anna Bruce, McKenna Wilson, and Charlotte Mauer.  Anna and McKenna were special participants as they were members of Lindley's first winter term.  The entire dining hall was broken into three groups in order to sing the round.  It was one of our better efforts at coordinated singing! Each student was presented a giant cookie, a BMA tradition.

We wish all of them well as they prepare to depart BMA until next fall.

Maggie, Lani and Katie

Greetings from Italy



Greetings from Italy! We've been having a great trip, the training has been good, the food excellent and the kids are working hard and having fun. We spent our first two days in Tarvisio Italy, near the Austrian and Slovenian borders, for a day of freeskiing and a day of GS training. On the 4th we drove to Kranjska Gora (a 20 min drive) to watch the men's WC GS, it was a rainy day but a great experience. After the race we packed up the vans and drove 4.5 hours to Paganella near Trento, here we have had excellent training, beautiful weather and yes more good food! Tomorrow we drive 1.5 hours to Folgaria for one more day of training on Thursday before our races on the 10th and 11th. Zoe and Reed are doing well, having fun and fired up for some racing. We look forward to meeting up with Raph, Xavier and maybe Ella too. Attached is group photo from our training session today. From left to right, Zoe, Tanner Graves (KMS), Reed, Olivia Holm (SMS), Diego Holscher (SMS/Chile), Jenna Braun (SMS), Aiden Mann (SMS).

​Ciao,
