Alpine January Newsletter

Season is in Full Swing!!!

After long Fall we are all on snow training gates and free skiing. We are one of the only ski clubs on West coast that has snow and is able to train. WE WOULD DEFINITELY ACCEPT MORE SNOW!!!
We already hosted four very good race series and I would like to use this opportunity to say thank you to all volunteers. We can't do races without volunteers.
As a Program we are also doing good at all these races and we will only get better. We had podiums at every race series that we participated. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Message from Marketing: 

Dear Alpine Parents,
The Club needs your help gathering photos throughout the winter.  JHSC needs hundreds of photos throughout the season to use for social media posts and marketing materials.  We make an effort to utilize every option available including  coaches, staff, and hiring professional photographers.  That said, you as parents experience the Club from a unique perspective, one that isn’t easily replicated.
That is why we are asking all our parents and club supporters to help us build our photo library.  If you take any photos of JHSC athletes at an event or practice, and don’t mind sharing them, we would love to acquire copies. 
Simply email the photos to JHSC CMO, Jeff Moran: jmoran@jhskiclub.org.  If you include details such as photographer’s name, location, event, and athlete(s) name(s) we will include it in our marketing and posts. 

Fantasy Ski Racer      

Fantasy Ski Racer is an app where you can go in and predict the top 10 for World Cup Racers. We recommend that all athletes participate in this app! Its a great way to stay engage in whats happening in the World Cup. 
When you create your profile or if you have already signed up, please go into your settings, http://www.fantasyskiracer.com/#/dashboard/settings and choose "edit profile" and choose "Jackson Hole Ski & Snowboard Club" as your US Ski and Snowboard Club.
