Hello Telemark Ski Families,
As you all know by now, the PHO has mandated that everyone working with Youth Athletes in programs needs to be vaccinated and have a valid BC Vaccine Passport or equivalent.
This would include parent helpers (anyone with the group more than 10 minutes) and all coaches (including youth coaches) for all program areas – Bunnies, Jackrabbits, Adventure, Track Attack, T2T, L2C. It would also include Event volunteers (eg. TA Champs, BBQ sales).
Telemark has created a zone4 registration page to make sure that we capture everybody and have proper records. This process takes less than 5 minutes to complete.
Please link to this Zone 4 page to upload your Proof of Vaccination. As of practice on Saturday, November 6th, any parent helper or volunteer that has not provided Proof of Vaccination will not be able to work with the kids.
Additionally, we are requesting that athletes with vaccine passports also register on the Zone4 page. This will assist our coaches and volunteers in planning practices and events. Also note that vaccine passports will be a requirement for most events this season, such as the upcoming Teck Regional Camp at Sovereign Lake, the Dec 4-5 FIS Canada Cup at Sovereign Lake, Rossland Kootney/Canada Cup, BC Games Trials for Nordic and Biathlon and the World Junior Trials in Canmore.
