Emily ClarkeHead Coach, Lake Louise Grizzlies Ski Club We knew when we were assigned two casinos on the same two days that it would take a village to fill all the required shifts, however we are confident that with over 200 athletes we can meet our obligations! As of writing this, we only have a small handful of vacant shifts Thursday and Friday mornings at both locations. The same cannot be said for the Friday We understand that Saturday is a ski day for many families as such, for any individuals who volunteer their time for the Friday, January 24, 2025, 7 pm or 11 pm shifts we will credit you with 25 financial volunteer points rather than the typical 15. Carla Ogryzlo and Anne FrickCasino Chairs, Lake Louise Ski Clubs *** NEW DATES ADDED for the Lake Louise Freeride Comp, see details below. Correct link for FIS NorAm week*** I have been working with the Lake Louise Inn this fall to organize rooms at discounted rates for all the events we are hosting. This includes the Santa Slalom, the NorAm FIS race, the U14 Provincial Series Race, the Doug Meyers Invitational and our Year End Awards Banquet. These discounts are available to all our members, not just those involved in the events. The rates I have secured are lower than rates available at the time of making these arrangements and in most cases are lower than the Season's Pass rate. If you are wanting to extended any of these windows, the Inn will honour our prices for 3 days before and after our event dates. If you already have booking for the season that overlap with these dates, please contact the Inn directly and they can add them to our bookings and in turn reduce your rate. All booking links below will expire 2 weeks before the event. Rates will still be available if rooms are available within that window but you must call the Inn directly. Santa SL: December 20-21 Must book by Dec 6 to use the code otherwise call directly.

As time goes on we will be offering more options in-house, but in the interim if you are looking for hoodies, t-shirts and flannel shirts our Tuxedo store remains open as well. Stephanie JohnstonMember Services, Lake Louise Ski Clubs With the snow conditions improving and all 210 of our athletes on snow this weekend, and the lodge and the base area getting busier, we would like to take this time to remind everyone of a few things. The lodge is a shared space, and while we try to coordinate lunches and stagger start times across clubs, it gets very busy in the mornings and mid day. We ask that you please be considerate of others who are looking for a seat and welcome others to sit if you have empty spots at your table while you are waiting for your athletes to join you. We also ask that our members set a great example by cleaning up your tables when you leave. The Lake Louise Ski Resort also asks that all bags be stored on bag racks or in your lockers and any any bags left in the lodge end up removed by resort staff. We know that as racks get full, piles of bags often form. Please be courteous of others space and consider how dropping your bag in the pile effects access to others bags already on the rack, and may get in the way of lane ways and access to the lodge. Please remind your athletes to be courteous and use the facilities the hill provides appropriately, keeping walkways and doors clear. Let's RISE up and be good patrons of the Lake Louise Ski Resort. Stephanie JohnstonMember Services, Lake Louise Ski Clubs What is Sisters in SendSisters in Send (an initiative by the LLSCs) was created because we identified a disparity in the number of female-identifying athletes participating in certain environments, compared to their male-identifying counterparts. This investment in gender equity combats the factors that contribute to the disparity by providing specialized female-specific training environments. We build progression-oriented, focused, and diverse training camps which create a sense of belonging, and are led exclusively by strong, female-identifying coaches. Our hope is that this commitment to gender equity will improve access and increase the quality of sport experience for our female-identifying athletes. Over time, Sisters in Send aims to contribute to equality in free-ride, freestyle, and high-level race environments. Camp InfoOur next Sisters in Send camp is on Friday, January 10! This is a full-day, all-abilities camp for female-identifying athletes aged 6 & up. It is focused on big mountain/freeride skiing. Registration opens December 6th!
