The Wilton Family Y has begun registration for its winter session of classes and programs, which start Jan. 5. Enrollment for membership and classes may be made online through the Y’s Web site, wiltonymca.org, or at the Y front desk.

The Y offers a wide range of programs and classes during the winter session, including swim instruction, gymnastics, youth sports, preschool activities, adult and youth exercise classes, after-school child care, and several special events. All classes are open to both members and nonmembers.

Strange things happen when you win a state championship. Having to make cuts

the following season, for example.

For the first time, the Wilton High boys ski team had to trim its roster

before next Thursday’s opening meet at Mt. Southington. The large turnout

for tryouts was partially due to the team’s success last season, when it

held off Greenwich by less than one second to win the State Open title.

With most of their top skiers returning, the Warriors should be among the

state’s top teams again this winter.
