Eastern Section Chief Election 2008

(For Blue Knob, Mountain View, Sawmill, and Tussey ski areas) 

Candidate: Michelle Koons

27 year patroller at Ski Sawmill, Morris, PA

OEC Instructor (Phase I & II), Circle A & M, yellow merit star,

6 years APD, 6 years PD, Ski Sawmill Ski Patrol

3 years Regional Awards Advisor, WAR 

This is the first election of Section Chief under the ‘one patroller, one vote’ system.   

If elected Section Chief by the patrollers of the Eastern Section, I pledge to maintain an open door policy, available to any patroller who has questions or comments.  I will maintain two-way lines of communication to convey updates from National, Division, and Regional offices to the individual patrols in our section, as well as communicating information/questions/comments/concerns from individual patrollers to the officers and advisors of the region.  I will support and assist the patrols in anyway I can.   

I will do my best to complete the administrative duties of the office, submitting registrations and the form 990’s for tax exemption in a timely manner, with the goal of having Eastern Section be the first in our region to have such paperwork completed. 

I will thoroughly enjoy meeting and skiing with the patrollers of the Eastern Section’s patrols! 

Respectfully submitted, Michelle Koons
