LLSCs CLUB UPDATES

Final Volunteer Opportunities for the Season

3/10/2025

 
Picture
It's hard to believe that we are nearing the end of the season with only 5 weeks left on snow for most of our athletes!  This means it's time to check in on where you are at with your volunteer requirements.  

​Please remember it is not just the points that are important but also that you have 1 community and 1 financial commitment.  Our amazing volunteer coordinators are doing their best to keep our tracking up to date.  This includes indicating when you have finished the community and financial commitments as well as your overall requirement.
Volunteer Tracking
Please reach out to our volunteer coordinators directly if you have help with something that is not reflected on the tracking sheet.

Needed - Ski Sale Volunteer - Floor Manager

3/1/2025

 
Picture
As most of you are aware, Lake Louise Ski Clubs is one of the four organizing clubs for the Calgary New & Used Ski Sale held at Maxwell Theatre each fall.  Part of our responsibility as an organizing club is to provide volunteers to fill  key roles.

One of these roles, Floor Manager for Clothing, has been filled by long time club parent, Colleen Garnsey for many years.  As Colleen's daughter is close to moving on from the club we are looking for someone to transition into this role.  Colleen will be around for the 2025 sale (October 22-26) to share the responsibilities of the role and provide any training needed.  In Colleen's words
It is a super fun, action packed sale and you get to meet loads of other volunteers from LLSC as well as Calgary Ski Club and the Calgary chapter of the Canadian Ski Patrol.  Oh and they feed us really well and you get to shop the sale before the public 😉.
As filling our commitment to the Ski Sale is essential to the financial stability of the club, this roles earns a significant number of volunteer credits.  You will earn 20 financial credits for the commitment plus 10 financial credits for each shift you are on the floor at the sale.

​If you are interested in this role or would like more information, please reach out to us and we will connect you with Colleen for further details. ​

We just want to take a moment to thank all of you for your efforts so far this season!  To date we have successfully met our ski sale and casino commitments as well as hosted a handful of very successful on snow events!  

​As we approach the mid-way point of the season we'd like to ask each of you to take a moment to review our tracking spreadsheet.  The link is provided below.  If anything is missing from the spreadsheet for your family, please email us directly at the volunteer email.

Still need credits for the season?  Watch your inbox in the next few weeks as sign-ups will be circulating for the Griz and Voli Cups as well as the Doug Meyer's Invitational.

Friday Night Volunteers - Bonus Points

12/9/2024

 
Picture
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.

Volunteer FAQs

​How are credits tracked?
We receive a list from the event organizers (internal and external) with all the names of the people who volunteer for LLSCs. Sheena and Mandy then match the parents' names to their athletes to award credits. 
What if someone volunteers for our family? 
If you have someone other than yourselves volunteer for your family, please email us ([email protected]) to let us know who it was and for which event. That way Sheena and Mandy will know who to put the credits towards! 

How do I view our credits to date?
You will find the same link at the bottom of the weekly volunteer update in this newsfeed. We will do our best to update the tracking spreadsheet in a timely manner.  Please remember we are volunteers.

What if I notice discrepancies with my credits?
Please email Sheena and Mandy at [email protected] with the details so we can make any necessary corrections!  

I have enough credits but it still shows I have not met my annual commitment?
In addition to the number of credits you must earn you must also complete at least one financial and one community commitment. 

What if I get charged my Volunteer Bond and I feel I met my commitment?
It is your responsibility to ensure your family's credit tracking is accurate by May 1, 2025 otherwise you will be charged an admin fee when we refund the bond.

2024:25 Registration Update

5/27/2024

 
Picture
Registration is just around the corner as such I have a few updates:
  • Deadline to apply for the Skier for Life Bursary is Friday May 31.
  • All program information for the 2024:25 season is up to date on Grizzlies, Race and All Mountain websites.
  • We are aiming to have registration open within the first couple weeks of June.
  • Returning members will have 2 weeks to register before we open to the public. Demand is high for programs this season and we will likely hit capacity in ALL our programs.  If you are unable to register within this 2 week window please contact me directly. 
  • The Volunteer Policy has been updated for the upcoming season. As there are numerous changes, I recommend all members give the policy a read before registration.
  • Our Refund Policy has also been updated. I would like to call your attention to the addition of the Volunteer Bond to the policy.

A Message from Gavin Preziosi

3/11/2024

The dedication of our volunteers plays a crucial role in the success of our sport.

To those who have already contributed their time and effort for the past U16 SG races, the Voli Cup and the upcoming Grizzly Cup, a big thank you for your invaluable support. Your commitment enhances the overall experience for the athletes, and everyone involved.
​
For those considering volunteering, your efforts truly make a difference, not only in the logistics and success of the events but also in fostering a sense of community and friendship.

As the U16 Western Regional Championships approach and the 21st annual Doug Meyers Invitational draws near, your continued support is vital. Whether you're helping with setup, assisting during the events, or participating in the leadup, there is a job for each and everyone's skillset.
​
Thank you to all the volunteers for your time, dedication, and passion. Your commitment to the sport and the community is truly commendable.
U16 Western's Voli Sign-up

URGENT - Alberta Alpine Parent Membership

2/16/2024

 
Picture
With our Comp/Race seasons underway it has been brought to our attention that it is absolutely essential for ALL parents to register as General Members with Alberta Alpine.  This ensures that each of you are insured to volunteer at both at Lake Louise and other ski resorts.  Going forward, ROCs and event hosts WILL be checking you are a member in good standing before you will be allowed to volunteer at any sanctioned competition or in- house events including Grizzly Cup, Voli Cup and the Doug Meyers Invitational.  

This year, there has been a shift from the previous framework of automatically charging membership fees when registering athletes to a per-parent membership model. Unlike the previous Family Membership structure that covered everyone upon registration, the new approach requires individual membership for each parent. 

If you're unsure whether you've previously registered for your 2023/24 membership, you can refer to our VOLUNTEER TRACKING SHEET under the 'Parents can volunteer' column. Those who have already registered with Alberta Alpine will have a check mark beside their name.
