Letter: Whistler Mountain Ski Club kickoff a success

"This is a legacy piece that will ensure our ability to host local, national, and international ski races and events for years to come."

Whistler Mountain Ski Club coaches and athletes are excited to make use of the new timing hut at the bottom of the Dave Murray National Training Centre this season.

The Whistler Mountain Ski Club would like to gratefully thank everyone who supported and came out for our Season Kickoff fundraiser event hosted by Gibbons and the Longhorn Saloon.

The club was raising money for a new timing hut, which will be located at the bottom of the Dave Murray National Training Centre starting this season. We are pleased to report that we were successful in reaching the evening’s fundraising goal, thanks in large part to the Whistler Weasel Workers and their magical fund-matching promise, which they committed to prior to the kickoff. This sparked a generosity and giving spirit to which many then participated in.

We would also like to share a big thank you to our wonderful funding partners in this project: Whistler Blackcomb Foundation, Wheaton Precious Metals and the Dave Murray National Training Centre. This is a legacy piece that will ensure our ability to host local, national, and international ski races and events for years to come, starting this season with the return of the NorAm Cup finals in March and the 30th Whistler Cup in April.

Here’s to a great winter full of fun and development.

Michael Janyk // Executive Director, Whistler Mountain Ski Club
