CAROLS
Angels we have heard on high
Deck the halls
Go, tell it on the mountain
Hark! the herald angels sing
Jingle bells
Let it snow
O Christmas tree
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Santa claus is coming to town
Silent night
The first noel
The twelve days of Christmas
Up on the housetop
We wish you a merry Christmas

Luge Description:
The track provides an Olympic thrill with the safety of the participant in mind. Top speeds of approximately 30 mph are possible from the public start area located about 3/4 of the way up the track. The 850’ track was designed by three-time Olympian Frank Masley and consists of six curves and two starting areas. Coaches are on hand to teach and assist both beginners and those who have slid before. Scouts will have a 2.5 hour session, which will include lessons and coaching.
