Snow on the "Hill"

I can't lie...seeing the snow on our hill today, all the way to the base area, really toggled the switch for me! OK! Now I can align with the calenday and be way ready for winter, a lot of snow, some great training, skiing and some terrificlly good times shared among all of us!

David Chodunsky Blog Page

David's blog page has some good reading for all of us. It clearly shows the values of goal setting, evaluation of our progress towards our goals and how we might most positively respond to and modify that plan according to our evaluation… His persistance is mighty. David is working to make the US Ski Team and ultimately score well on the World Cup. His path, having gone through college first, is not the most normal of paths to the US Ski Team. I personally think that many college programs are very capable of preparing athletes for this level of competition. David’s experience and that of many of his teammates tends to prove to me that possibility is very viable.

I had had the good fortune to meet David in the East when he was skiing with the Dartmouth College Team. I think you will enjoy this reading and find some interesting insights in his web-site. I especially enjoyed his “Bio” page and particularly his comments about his college years!

Parents Meeting

Hi Ski Racing Families,

Don’t forget that Monday October 25th is our parents meeting. The time and location are now set at: 6:00 pm at the Whitefish Library.

Please do try to attend as this will be instrumental in kicking off our season in many ways. I will talk about our plans for our programs and try to quickly outline our plans and expectations for the coming season. FVSEF will also spend some time with their early season items. This is an important meeting and I urge you to have at least one family member present.

Thanks and I hope to see you all there!

Whitefish Alpine Officials Training

Hey all of you Race Officials;

I just wanted to send along a short thank you for participating in our Officials training this week-end. It was a beautiful week-end and I know you all have a lot to get ready for winter.

But I also know that you recognize the importance of what you have just done and how strongly it will impact the children involved in our chosen sport!

We all know what a great sport it is, but without all of you to keep it going strong, alpine skiing would suffer greatly…

Also want to be sure to thank our staunch supporters Bob Petitt from Bozeman and Sherri Hale for coming to lead our training programs!

Thanks again and I will see you on the hill SOON!
