The Red Mountain Racers - North America's Most Successful Alpine Ski School - will be having their Mars Spring Series - 2GS/2SL April 3 to 6 at Red Mountain Resort.
2008 is another exciting year for Red Mountain Racers. We have 86 racers this season from ages 6 to 18. Red Mountain Racers offers coaching and support to young skiers who desire to participate and compete in all age categories from Alcan Nancy Greene Ski league, the K1 and K2 programs, through FIS.
This season we have 15 FIS racers making us the 2nd largest FIS team in British Columbia. Working together with Red Mountain Academy we are able to offer equal time shared between education and on hill training. Athletes travel to races across British Columbia and Canada, and as far away as Chile for training. We are also very proud to have Sasha Zaitsoff named to the BC ski team.
This year our club will host 4 races at Red Mountain attracting up to 500 racers and 300 - 400 parents and support people to our
community. We rely on our generous community for support and volunteers. During some of these events we will require upwards of 120 volunteers. It is an exciting time to get out and be a part of world class events right here in our town.
If you are interested in helping with a race please contact Volunteer Coordinator - Alar Ruutopold at 352-5635 or email: ruutopold@shaw.ca
Come out and cheer on the athletes.
