MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

 The ’20-’21 season was challenging as an organization, but we were able to continue to serve our students and their families for another successful year.  We fine tuned our training for all instructors, had many new certifications for multiple instructors and managed to navigate the challenges of teaching lessons under the restrictions required by a pandemic.

We are looking forward to another year and even though there may continue to be challenges, we know that with the success we had last year, we’ll be able to carry on and provide as many opportunities as possible to our students who want to participate. Given the additional challenges that a pandemic places on our program, we may not have full participation from our students or all of our instructors this year, but we will be ready to teach and will make sure we provide a safe learning and teaching experience for all of our participants.

We encourage you stay involved and get registered as early as possible to make sure we can get as many opportunities as possible for our students and instructors.  If you want to ski or ride with us, but have concerns about whether or not you will be ready participate this year, reach out to me and let me know what concerns you may have.  We plan on being around for at least another 40 years, so if you don’t feel comfortable participating this year, please stay in touch and involved so you’re ready to participate when we get back to whatever normal will look like.

Stay safe and healthy and we hope to see you sooner rather than later on the mountain!
