If you've been around Sun Valley for 30 years, you'll remember that Carol Levine was perhaps the best female ski racer on Baldy in the late 1970s and early 1980s—and one of the best female softball players in the glory days of adult recreational slow-pitch softball at Ketchum's Atkinson Park.

Levine, now a national champion Masters ski racer and highly regarded instructor, returns to Sun Valley next week as guest coach of Sun Valley Resort's "Her Turn" February 2011 Women's Ski Clinic. The session is Friday through Sunday, Feb. 4-6. Cost is $575 for the three-day session.

Sun Valley Resort's press release states that women alpine skiers who want to take their tech-nique to the next level should consider the program. It includes five hours of on-snow instruction daily, a 5:1 instructor to student ratio, demo equipment rentals, lunch at River Run, video analysis, parties and goody bags.

A past National Alpine Team member and current Rocky Mountain examiner, Levine was the original organizer of the National Women's Seminars. She pioneered the integration of women's issues at the national level and created her own women's program for the Vail Ski & Snowboard Schools called "Her Turn."

In addition, Levine helped develop Vail's successful "Focused Learning" ski immersion pro-gram. She now works with the Ski & Snowboard Schools of Aspen, and continues to work with women instructors.

Class sizes are limited. Sign up at the Sun Valley SnowSports School at 622-2289 to insure your space.
