Ski League Winter FUNtastics on Saturday

Posted by

Hello Parents,
Our final day Winter FUNtastics is happening this Saturday March 9th at 10:30 am.

(Please note: Bunnies have their own activities, however if any Bunnies want to join the „big kids“ they are more than welcome .)

Please bring your kids to the chalet before 10:30 to sign up at the coaches table for groups.

We will have stations with fun activities for the children around the stadium and hot dogs and snacks at the end.

We can’t do it without you.

We need your help in order to have a truly Winter FUNtastic day. Volunteers will be needed for signing up kids, supervising activities, leading groups of kids and BBQ personnel.

Volunteer opportunities for “Winter FUNtastics” are now open.
Please click on the following web link (or copy it into your web browser if clicking doesn’t work) to go to the signup sheet:

To sign up, just follow the instructions on the page. It only takes a few seconds to do. Please sign up NOW.

Volunteers meet at 10:00 am at the chalet and our coaches will tell you what to do.
Thank you for volunteering!

See you there.

Hoping to not diminish the contribution of all our volunteers this weekend, I am going to single out Jill Stamp and I want to be the first to say a HUGE than you to her for all the time she put in over the past 4 weeks to choreograph this BC cup.  In the volunteer role I was honored to be awarded this weekend, I got to see the underbelly of a major race and I for one had no prior concept of the amount of pre-planning and real-time decision making that happens and Jill Stamp is at the center of  it all.

Further, there is an entire “black ops” team of people, spending as much time as any athlete or race parent, who pull everything together for race day.  For example, think about how it came to be that the entire course is already groomed to perfection and marked out when you arrive at 7:00 AM!   Please take the time to go back and re-read the “competition committee” list in the race notice and give each of them a special thanks next time you see them.

Thank you to the athletes and parents who stood in the cold selling raffle tickets today.  The results were better than I expected, your time was worth it!
