Volunteers are essential for the very existence of the Ski Club and for every Club program, special event or fund raiser.
Ski parents, our high school skiers and community member volunteers support Club programs and events with their time and energy. Some of the things our wonderful volunteers do are:
- Teach, encourage and supervise young skiers and runners
- Help swap shoppers choose the right size and type of gear
- Mark race courses
- Man aid stations and refreshment tables
- Assist race timers, keep track of finishers, and collect race bibs
- Contact sponsors
- Design race awards and shirts
Superiorland Ski Club volunteers also show up to support the Ore to Shore mountain bike race by staffing the final aid station and beer tent.
There are volunteer opportunities throughout the year – on snow, in the summer sun and even indoors. Many volunteers spend just a few hours once or twice a year making sure an important event is successful, while others make season long commitments. Volunteer positions are available for Youth Programs (including coaching and assistant coaching), Adult Programs, Ski and Bike Swaps, Administration, and The Lake Superior Shore Run among other things.
We need you! If you are interested in volunteering or want more information on ways to help, contact Jennifer Bruggink at superiorlandskiclub@gmail.com.
