I hope that everyone is having a great summer and trying to enjoy the brief periods of nice weather. Plans are being made for the upcoming season and the dates for all of the refreshers have been set.

HVSP OEC - October 3, 8:00am

Other area OEC refresher dates can be found at the Regional Ski Patrol website: http://www.patrol.org/war/warevent.htm#refresher

Regional Nordic On The Trail - October 9 & 10, 8:00am

This Nordic On the Trail Refresher is open to all patrollers both Alpine and Nordic. An optional overnight is offered for those who wish to sleep under the stars. To accompany the Granola and Tofu, Chefs Timcik and Shaeffer provide a gourmet steak dinner. If you plan to attend please contact Jerry Timcik Timcik@yahoo.com so that he has a head count for the dinner.

HVSP On The Hill / CPR / Lift Evac / Corporation Meeting - November 13, 8:00am

Bob Snoby did a great job scheduling our OTH on a Saturday as not to conflict with the Steelers. Due to the unique Lift Evac technique we employ at HV it is absolutely mandatory that you attend the On the Hill at Hidden Valley. Attending the On the Hill at another area will not be acceptable. Missing the HV On the Hill and Business Meeting will be counted as an unexcused absence.

Please remember that per National Ski Patrol Policy we must refresh our CPR annually no matter what your CPR cards says.

As always lunch will be provided and I will personally do my best to keep the business meeting as short a possible.

Along with the refreshers the Annual Golf Outing is scheduled for Saturday September 18th at the Hidden Valley Golf Club.

If anyone have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me at ptrbilt@hotmail.com

I look forward to seeing everyone at the refreshers and golf outing.
