Johnson Recreation Ski & Ride Program. 2020-2021
Johnson Rec. has a wonderful Ski & Ride program at Stowe Mountain Resort. Every year, our adult chaperones hit the slopes with Johnson's youth for 6 fun-filled Sundays.
At this time, Stowe Mountain cannot say if they will be hosting town programs this winter. I spoke to a mountain representative and the message at this time is, "we just don't know yet."
I will continue to update our Skiers & Riders, on our Website https://www.johnsonrecreationvt.com/, on FaceBook, and onFrontPorchForum
Please feel free to reach out with questions: tojrecreation@townofjohnson.com
Thank you,
Lisa
WINTER SPORTS 2020-2021
The Johnson Recreation Committee met last night for our monthly meeting. We discussed what to do about Basketball, Futsal and Skiing. Currently the Governor has all Recreation League Sports on hold.
Governor Scott will be addressing sports again on Tuesday, November 24th.
The Recreation Committee and I are committed to offering sports when it is safe to do so. We have been in touch with Stowe Mountain Resort, Smuggs, and the Craftsbury Outdoor Center. They all share our commitment to programming. We will monitor the COVID-19 situation and if anything changes, we will be standing by ready to spring into action to get our community back to recreating.
The indoor sports, Futsal and Basketball, are complicated not only by the Governor's restrictions, but also because we are unable to use the JES gym. We have some gym space reserved for later in the winter and we are working with the management team there to ensure it is a safe space for indoor recreation during the pandemic.
We will be offering some events aimed at spreading holiday cheer in December and hopefully some Zoom yoga and art classes over the winter.
I will send emails, make posts on FrontPorchForum, update our Facebook page and Website as we receive more information.
Sincerely,
Lisa & The Johnson Recreation Committee
