Pat & I found SSMR 20+ years ago and like so many, after visiting for years we finally purchased a house and made it our winter home. 

From the first time our neighbors took us out XC country skiing I was hooked and became a “XC camp junkie”.  I’ve attended ski camps in California, Wisconsin (home of the American Birkebeiner), Alaska (in July) on a glacier where multiple national and Olympians go to train, and it was in Bend, Or where we heard about ski camp at SilverStar. 

In my real life I still work full time in a leadership role with my organization, a job that allows me to ski everyday (just don’t tell my boss that!) I practiced in Emergency Medicine for 30+ years as a PA and now do telemedicine for my clinical work. 

I have skied at the World Masters XC and World Loppets in Italy, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden , such a great excuse to go ski some of the most beautiful places in the world, but my favorite place?  Why SilverStar of course!
