Goals

The Goals of the club are:

1. To promote the sport and enjoyment (fun!) of cross-country skiing.
2. To encourage participation in cross-country skiing and provide opportunities for skier development
3. To establish and maintain programs and activities that support an integrated skier (athlete) development system up to the provincial team level.
4. To create a unified voice for cross country skiers at Mt Washington and on Vancouver Island.
5.To work for the improvement and development of cross country ski facilities on Vancouver Island.

One of our most exciting club goals is to send Vancouver Island skiers, coaches and officials to the 2010 Olympics which we hope will held in Vancouver / Whistler. ‘Making’ the Olympics takes many years of training and preparation. By developing a strong skier development program we can provide the opportunity for local athletes to aim for the Olympics. Competitive international skiers range in age from early 20’s to mid 30’s where will you be in 10 years? Likewise, coaches and officials will be required for the Olympics and the club program provides the starting point and access to the certification course and experience needed to get there.
