Academy News, Nov 8, 17

Hi all

Things are coming together for the season, the weather is getting colder and snowmaking is ready to go at our first opportunity.

Our General meeting is this Sunday at 10 am. The meeting will not take more than an hour,  we will be activating passes and handing out coats to returning instructors only.

In order to get pass and coat, the following must be completed:

  1. Online registration.
  2. Have your current id  (CSIA, CSCF, CASI) or proof of payment .
  3. Have a signed Instructor agreement.

The plan is to get our returning instructors processed and then we will get the new people processed after the hiring clinic is done. Let’s make sure we all have registered online and have paid our dues.

Un-certified candidates and TAs will be given passes once training begins. Until then we will produce daily tickets.

See you all on Sunday.

Attention Snow Boarders

Hello all snowboarders!

Snowboard Instructors:
We will be drafting instructors into groups at 8:15 AM on Saturday and Sunday for the nine week program. If you want a chance to work programs on Saturday or Sunday, you must meet us with your green jacket at the back of the Pro Room at 8:15 AM. Even if you’re not assigned a program at 8:15 AM, please still come to the black flag at the beginning of every program as more students may show up and you may still have a chance of receiving an assignment for the season.

At the moment, there are more instructors requesting to work Saturdays than there are groups, and more groups than instructors requesting to work on Sundays. If you can be flexible with your day, you could have a better chance at being assigned a program.

Snowboard TAs:
Please meet Ashley in the back of the Pro Room at 8:30 AM with both your completed forms. Don’t forget, in order to complete all your hours, you are requested to be at the hill both Saturday and Sunday this weekend only.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email Ashley at ashley.heideman@gmail.com.

Thanks and see you all this weekend,
Ezio and Ashley
