Hi All,
This Saturday we are hosting ‘Kids upfront’ for a learn-to-ski day, we will need 15 instructors to work for a couple of hours in the morning. If you’re able, please let me know by email ( even if you have not already done so).
Cheques and Jacket return can be done as of this weekend, if you plan on being around to teach some more, then bring the coat back later . Last weekend to return coats is the 7th & 8th of April.
Next Wednesday we have a school in at 9:30, we will need some help teaching. If you plan on being at the hill for that lovely spring day, we would love to have your help. Please let me know via email.
On Thursday we have a school at lunch time, again if you’re around, please let us know. Thanks in advance.
Banquet tickets are on sale in the pro room.
This weekend and the Easter weekend we can count on having privates to teach. The snow is great and the season is far from over.
All for now:

Hello all,
Those that have been up at the hill know that the snow has been good, and now this new natural stuff will make it even nicer. On Friday we re-open for the season, Pinnault and Paradise will be open along with the carpet area. Saturday, we will add Clifford to the mix, so 3 chairs and 3.5 runs . Snow-making is working hard on both sides and we can expect Marshall early next week , followed by Skyline around Xmas.
Come out, get in some runs with our new supervisors Eva Margo-Dermer and Josh Cassidy McDowell.
We plan to review some class management, teaching techniques, along with discussing some changes we will be implementing to improve the service we provide to our customers.
Look forward to seeing you all. If you are a new instructor with Fortune Academy or a returning instructor who would like to instruct in the All Mountain program please come out and join us.
We have a number of incomplete instructors, people that have not yet graced us with their presence, I encourage you to get here to complete the process. As we will soon be assigning classes . if you are not on a list, we won’t need you.
All for now

Hey all,
Yesterday’s Hiring Clinic was well attended. Great to see so many new people planning on joining our team, hoping that we see you all take the pre-course, and work towards your certification.
Je veux aussi souligner que les sessions pour les aides moniteur, moniteur et le pré-stage, débute la fin de semaine prochaine. So to that end, I would expect our staff to be here over the next couple of weekends in order to get up to speed technically and be ready for the holiday season .
Performance Programs will be looking for a few good Men/ Women , if your able to commit speak with Clayton cpolan@bell.net next weekend . This is a 15 day program beginning Dec 16th.
Privates Program, these are the instructors that commit to privates and get booked for Sat and or Sun all winter. if your able to commit contact Roger or SJ for now please contact sjnormand@gmail.com
All program supervisors will be drafting people from the active list so be sure you get organized in order to be selected, this does not apply to our new candidates you will be added in as you get cert.

Hey all,
It’s the last week of our 9 week programs. This last memory is largely what they will remember of the season spent with us, so it’s very important to finish strong and be sure we plant the seed for next season.
I can tell all of you that I have had a very positive winter with very few negative issues that have needed my attention, and that means you all did a great job teaching/entertaining your people.
Be sure you give out the report cards and stickers. Please return any remaining cards to your supervisor.
As the programs come to an end, the season marches on – we still have; Ontario March break week, walk-in privates to teach and a few special events like the pro race and masters finals.
Be sure you get/reserve your banquet ticket and book April 8th for the Awards dinner. Please buy/reserve now – 25$ cash at the Cage.
If you are certain of not returning before the banquet, you can leave your coat this weekend, otherwise do it on the last day you work. And that being said the season is far from over.
Still looking for award nominations. Once the list of nominees is complete I will post it on the blog.
All for now,
Frank
Hey all,
As we approach the Family day weekend, I would ask that those of you that teach one day a weekend be kind enough to come out on both days. It would be a great help to the supervisors if people were to give us a bit of extra time to make up for the absent instructors.
We will also need extra bodies on Monday as its Family day and we will have lots of lessons, many hands make light work.
Also please note that we will have a meeting both Saturday and Sunday morning at 8:15 to go over our new report cards.
All Mountain info below; and I am sure Ski Wee will need spare instructors also.
“Can you please post a request for instructors will to help out with the All Mountain program this weekend.
Looking for 3 or 4 instructors for Saturday, 5-6 for Sunday.
Please request them to contact me at either, joe.mclean@pwbcorp.com or 613-261-9278.”
We will also need a few extra Snowboard Instructors for tomorrow during the day – if you are able to help out please let the cage know at 819-827-1717 ext 2223 or academy@campfortune.com
The Academy banquet is set for the 8th of April, more details to follow.
We are having a great year, let’s keep it going. Have to say its perhaps the best season ever as far as our team goes. Keep up the good work all.
All for now see you on the weekend.
Frank
