With the chilly mornings this weekend I encourage you all to be prepared. We are holding training sessions each morning between 830 and 915. if interested please plan on arriving early.

TAs and some instructors that may have purchased a pass prior to joining our team, are asked to return the pass for a refund we will need the name and email of the person that paid for it i.e. the parent if that is the case.

For those that work privates , the meeting area will be next to the chip truck now .

Salut a tous

Nous sommes ouvert alors préparer vous pour une journée fraiche. On colder days we need to be prepared ourselves as well as be active on snow to keep our clients moving and warm. The attitude of the instructor makes the difference, keep it moving and be positive. If needed take a quick break but avoid a long stay indoors.

Same as last week be here before 9 am in order to be on snow at 915.

All for now.

Important message we will be closing the hill this afternoon at 4 pm and reopening on Wednesday morning. So no session this evening.

Snowmaking opts and lighting repairs require machinery on the hills and this will be easier without clients skiing/ riding. Another reason is to give a break to some staff that need a bit of a breather.

all for now

Notre première journée faites et on peu dire que la deuxième est bien démarrée.

One day done and Sunday is well underway.

Evening programs and Wednesday breakaway begin this week.

Bit of housekeeping our first Monday evening training starts on the 10th. Session on snow between 7 and 9 pm.  These sessions are open to our instructors and Tas.

From now on you will need a parking pass to enter the lower parking be sure you get one or you will need to walk from upper lot.

The first days of lesson programs can be difficult with varying expectation from the pupils and parents. The key is to communicate with your supervisors and sort out any issues that may have come up.

I would like to thank everyone for being here on time good and early, it makes a world of difference to have time to get organized.

Bonjour a tous,

C’est un depart, it’s a go. Cette fin de semaine les programmes débute, et nous voulons que tous nos moniteurs et aide moniteur soit présent avant 8 h 30 pour être sur neige à 9 heure.

All instructors and Tas should be here before 830 in order to be on snow at 9 am.  Plan for a lunch either in your car or in pro room for those that don’t have a car, that said the pro room is good for changing and bags can be left here, we just have to be conscious of distancing and masking.

Please use the procedural masks that we have for you , do not wear a buff or neck warmer without a good mask and make sure the mask is visible.

 At 9 am all instructors are either standing at a program meeting area or at the privates meeting area.

If you committed to a day, we expect that you are here all day regardless of lesson assignments and we will do our best to give you work.

I am looking forward to a great start to our programs. Be here and be ready.

Bonne Année /Happy New Year

Yesterdays Gov. statement, will not affect the programs . The main lodge will only be open for warming and washrooms, Cafeteria will be open for take out , no eating indoors . Be prepared to either eat in car or in pro room as it is considered a staff lunchroom. A reminder, the pro room is for instructors only.

Remember to maintain masking and distancing indoors. I also want everyone to understand that a procedural mask is a must for instructors and TAs alike . Some have gotten into the habit of wearing a buff over the mask, if this is the case be sure the mask is visible to all or don’t wear the buff. Its important that we are providing a good example. do not be too cool for school :)

In closing I would like to thank everyone working the checkpoints and teaching the Xmas camp and privates. You are all doing a great job and are much appreciated by our customers . I know it can sometimes be negative with certain people but remember the majority are happy.

The big show starts soon and I am confident we will be up to the task.

All for now, see ya next year.
