Attention Comp Day Heroes!
Comp Day Heroes – a.k.a., volunteers - are key to successful ski and snowboard events at every level of competition. Be it a World Cup event, the Olympics, Regional Championships or our very own Home Team Coaches Cup competitions, volunteers make it possible for athletes to show their stuff on course.
As of this writing, 22 of the 25 volunteer positions needed for this Saturday’s Coaches Cup events remain open. 18 of the 25 volunteer positions for Sunday remain open. We really need you to throw on your hero capes, sign up and help us provide fun competitions for these hard charging athletes.
Please read through the descriptions below, choose your position and tap a link to sign up! The Coaches Cup Comps will only happen with your participation.
