Are you willing to serve your club by volunteering for a one-year term on the Board of Directors? The commitment required for a rewarding and enjoyable experience is to attend a 2-hour board meeting once per month where you will participate in discussions about everything skiing and snow.  Most board members will also take on an additional project to help develop and enhance our club. Detailed job description here

In accordance with the club bylaws all board positions are open for nominations and election each year.  This year we will have up to 5 vacancies due to retiring board members or currently unfilled positions: Treasurer and up to four Directors at Large.
