49ER SKI CLUB BOARD GUIDANCE ON SCHEDULING CONFLICTS

 

The ski club leadership schedules activities for the purpose of encouraging members to ski or participate in a variety of other events together. These activities will be planned with input from the general membership. It is anticipated that members will help support these events. Individuals should let the Ski Activity Coordinator know as soon as possible of any problems with the schedule.

 

Members should refrain from:

  1. Announcing an event or ski location at a 49er meeting or other means of communication that conflict with a previously scheduled event.
  2. Scheduling (or inviting all members) to any ski trip that is close in date to a regularly scheduled ski trip, thus possibly causing members to choose only one of the activities, even if it is possible to participate in both.
