Academy News – Dec 2, 15

Hello all,
This weekend we will be running sessions for all, pre-course for un-cert’s, returning instructors, and the pilot project TA’s, please be at the hill by 9 am.
I have decided that we will use the Dec training phase to hold a food drive. To that end I ask that all who use the pro room drop off food donations each day you come out to slide.

Our Top Ten priority items are:

– Peanut Butter
– Cereal and oatmeal
– Canned pasta
– Canned beans
– Salted cookies and crackers
– Canned fruits and vegetables
– Canned soups
– Dry pasta

We will deliver this food to one or more of the local food banks, I think that with this small gesture we as a group can make a real difference. Thank you in advance for taking the time to grab an item before coming up to the hill.

At Tremblant this week for training and the CSIA convention, see you all on sat morning.

Sincerely
Frank Bernier
