If I volunteer do I get any benefits for it?
Yes, but remember the basics of volunteering is the sprit of helping to create
something that would otherwise not be able to occur. Volunteering is also an
affordable way to become an Honorary Member, which is the equivalent to a Due Paying
Membership. Volunteer benefits come in a variety of flavors that give perks to our long
term as well as our short term volunteers.
Ski Area volunteering benefits guidelines are at the discretion of Officers, Directors,
and Managers
 | 4 hours of work will grant you one day of skiing or tubing for a person of your
choice. You have the option of either working and playing during the day or working the
whole time and getting a voucher, or having someone else use your on slope time while
you work. |
|
|
Free Dinner if working a Double session day (work both day time and night
time session general on Sundays and some holyday periods) Meal made up of
entry, fries, drink and desert item (combo meal plus desert) |
|
| Free rentals if available, except during weekly lesson program, generally
Saturday
mornings, and no guaranteed reservations, feel free to have pre fit but if they are need
for the public they will be put into service. |
|
| 8 hours per week commitment will grant 1 person unlimited (season pass status)
skiing or tubing |
|
| 15 hours per week average from an individual or family will grant a family season
pass status, skiing or tubing. A family is defined as parents and their children but
will consider exceptions, on a case by case basis. |
|
| Family is welcome to end of season party just for members and volunteers with free
use of the area and free food and fun. |
Off Season Volunteering
| Individuals volunteering during the off season well be evaluated based on the tasks
they perform, amount of time committed to activities and regular attendance at scheduled
work sessions. Volunteers will be awarded either with vouchers, discount cards, or
membership status that will be distributed in the fall season. |
Honorary Membership status eligibility
| Individual Honorary Membership will be awarded if you commit to 4 hours a week for
at least 75% of the season or 75% of the operating days. Special consideration will also
be made for helping during vacation periods, or working 3 or more of the 4 weekend
sessions for a number of weeks, also volunteering time in the off season. |
| Family Honorary Membership status will be extended to volunteers that generally have
two members of their family meet the criteria of individual membership or if more
members of the family are involved or a volunteer virtually is living at the facility
that meets the requirements of commitment for 2 people or also volunteers time during
the off season. |
How is eligibility determined for the various programs
There will be two tracking areas that will determine who is eligible for various
benefits
| The first is based on historic performance both documented and undocumented that the
board or membership feels is accurate and agrees to extend benefits to that individual
or family |
| The second track will be based on current performance or committed/pledged time. An
example of performance based eligibility is that a person is at the area for 3 weeks and
is putting in 8 hours a week and feels they will continue doing so for the remainder of
the season, they may be extended a season's pass as long as they maintain the criteria.
|
Can I lose benefits extended by the Club
| Yes it is possible, the largest group this will primarily affect will be the
volunteers that come on for the season that have pledged to work a number of hours a
week and are in danger of or are not meeting the set criteria that is set for a
particular benefit. But all volunteers in the group are subject to scrutiny in this
matter. We will carefully consider this action and warn folks ahead of time, in most
cases a week in advanced. It might be a matter of simply losing season pass status and
going back to vouchers, so it is by no means a complete loss and it can easily be
regained by working extra time or just getting back on track as far as time commitments. |
