Seeking Board members for PSIA/AASI – Intermountain Division

Volunteering has become a big part of our society.  School programs, snow sport programs and many others have initiated and encouraged members to volunteer their time.  Volunteering can be a rewarding and satisfying position. 

Please consider and encourage others to run for the PSIA/AASI – Intermountain Board.  This is a great opportunity to serve other members and the Division.  Requirements for the Board include personal attendance to 3 meetings per year.  These are tentatively scheduled for May, September and January.  We also ask Board members to write an article for at least one of the 3 issue’s of The Edge newsletter.  

Every Board has obligations to be involved in events.  We ask that you attend and be available for major functions like Ed College General Membership meetings, Spring Clinic and various other activities that need Board representation.

I hope that you choose to run.  This is a fantastic opportunity to represent your peers by serving on the PSIA/AASI – Intermountain Board.  Nominations/applications are due in the Division office by Wednesday, February 15, 2012.  Any certified member (L1, II, or III) in good standing who is either employed by a snowsport school within a region whose seat is up for election in this cycle, or who wishes to run for an at-large seat is eligible to run and, if elected, serve.  Please submit a passport photo, a letter of interest and intent with 5 signatures from PSIA/AASI-Intermountain members in good standing.  Ballots will be mailed out to current members by the end of February, with ballots due back in the office by March 15th. 

The opening Board positions are:

Region I:       Jackson Hole, Grand Targhee, Snow King, Pine Creek

Region VI:    Solitude, Brighton, Sundance

Region VII:  Alta, Snowbird

Two (2) Member-At-Large Seats

Spring Clinic 2012
Grand Targhee

The Intermountain division is proud to hold the 2012 annual Spring Clinic event at the Grand Targhee Resort. If you haven’t visited this Teton gem this is your opportunity. Come up for 2 or 3 days of skiing with the Intermountain DECL staff or some of our special guests.

Over forty years ago local skiers in Teton Valley realized their dream of opening a lift served resort on the west slope of the magnificent Grand Tetons. Grand Targhee Resort was born! Since then many major base area improvements, added terrain and upgraded chairlifts make Grand Targhee a true gem among the Intermountain resorts.

Unmatched, corduroy groomed trails and legendary knee deep powder provide an all mountain riding experience to be remembered for many seasons to come. The key is the more than 500 inches of light fluffy powder that fall on the backside of the Tetons (the snowier Western side) each year.  And, if you like freestyle, Grand Targhee has two terrain parks plus awesome natural freestyle terrain as well.
