As parents\/guardians of participants in the Alyeska Ski Club, you play a crucial role in the program not only through the support you provide your child\/children, but also in supporting the program on race\/competition days, as it takes as many as 30 people to staff an IFSA, USASA, USSS or FIS race. We have a very strong tradition of involving families in our competitions and races. Having a volunteer staff for these events helps us to host a safe and well run event as well as helps keep program prices lower for the entire club.<\/p>\n
Race and competition day volunteer duties are outlined below. \u00a0Some positions are only available to volunteers who are certified Officials (Technical Delegates, Judges, Referees, Chief of timing, Race Administration, etc). If you are interested in volunteering in a position that requires certification, please watch for postings of Officials Clinics in the Fall for the Juniors Program. For the Freeride and Alpine X Programs, please contact your Head Coaches. Most positions do not require any certification and many positions don’t even require any experience.<\/p>\n
There are inside, as well as outside volunteer positions. Race or competition experience is not a necessary requirement for volunteering. We will be happy to teach you what you need to know.<\/p>\n
