WPI's Alpine Ski Club has begun practicing for the upcoming season. To get everyone in the mood, they have acquired a sneak preview of Warren Miller's "Snowriders". This movie is packed with footage of "hold on to your seats", live, extreme skiing. Miller took his cameras around the world to get the best shots of skiers tackling the most difficult slopes and snowboarders carving into the edges of untamed mountains. This is a movie not to be missed by both those who love to ski and those who just enjoy action and watching people live on the edge.
"Snowriders" will be shown Friday, November 15 at 8PM and Saturday, November 16 at 3PM and 8PM. All three showings will be in Perreault Hall. Tickets can be purchased at the door. The cost is $7.50 for the 8PM showings, $5 for the matinee on Saturday, and $5 anytime for children under 12.
If you like what you see or you already enjoy skiing, perhaps you would like to join the team. They have dryland practices weekdays at 4:30. The team meets in front of Harrington Auditorium.
