Volunteer Opportunities

Thank you for taking the time to join us in the Sitzmark last weekend. It was great to see many new and familiar faces. Volunteering, really is the backbone of the community within the Lake Louise Ski Clubs and is often a fun and rewarding experience that leads to life long friendships. 

As promised, here is a recap of the volunteer opportunities that were presented and the ways in which you can sign up. 

• IT Support (20 points): If you have a background with software and are familiar with Microsoft Office Administration and or Weebly, our wonderful Member Services, Steph, would appreciate your knowledge and assistance.
• Fundraising committee (15 points): We are looking for a member from each of the three clubs to sit on a committee that helps organize fundraising events for the club. i.e.: Meat sales, 50/50 raffle, etc. 
• ​Sponsorship committee (15 points): This committee would help bring sponsorships across the line by collecting necessary documentation from the sponsor to be shared on social media and our website. 
• Grant writing (15 points): If you have experience navigating and writing grants, please put your hand up. 
• Competition coordinator (10 points): All Mountain is looking for a Competition Coordinator for each away comp. This volunteer would book blocks of rooms, coordinate team dinner(s), skiing with fellow parents and act as a go between  for  staff and families.  A sign up will be circulated to All Mountain families directly.
• Content provider (5 points): We are looking for photographers and videographers that would be willing to volunteer their time to get some content that we can use for social media and the website. We like to collect a fairly substantial catalogue that we can pull from over the seasons.  Interested? Reach out to Member Services.
• Race Organizing Committee (20 points): ROCs are the backbone of every race/event that we host. Members of the ROC will participate in weekly meetings leading up to the events and play a crucial role in the execution of the events.  Watch for sign-ups to be circulated.
• Race Volunteers (10 points): We are always in need of volunteers leading up to and on the day of events. These roles include setting up safety, maintaining the course, working various positions on the race course, assisting with timing, etc. Last year's DMI had close to 100 volunteers/day from various clubs. Some positions do not require you to be on snow.  Watch for sign-ups to be circulated.

To sign up for any of these positions, please email Sheena and Mandy at [email protected]. If you have any questions about volunteering, please seek out one of your board members or Steph at Member Services. The list above is not comprehensive.  Do you have a skill that may be of assistance, please let us know.
