2023 Week 2 New and Notes

NO BUCK HILL SUNDAY AM – on January 15

There is no race this coming Sunday, January 15 for the Buck Hill Sunday AM race.  Buck Hill is having a FIS race all weekend.  Sunday PM will still go on as scheduled.

Sunday, January 22 we will be having a double race.  This will be considered week 2 & 3.

BHSUNA – HUTCH

Please try and clean up the best you can after being in the Hutch.  Throw away any paper products and pick up any garbage that may have fallen to the floor.

TABLES IN THE BUCK HILL EVENT CENTER ROOM

If your team moves tables together for your race night in the Buck Hill Event Center Room, please move them apart and put in original place before you leave.  This will help our server for the night get the room ready for the next day.

Pre-orders – Don’t forget to use the pre-order forms and write when you estimate you will be coming in.  That way you will get your order in a timely manner.  If you order after you get it in, it will take a lot longer to get your food.  You can use the pre-order forms for both food and beverages.

REGISTRATION FEES DO NOT INCLUDE LIFT TICKETS

Just a reminder that your race fee of $170 is strictly covering all expenses and fees for racing.  You can go here to see more about fees:  RACE FEES.  All racers must purchase a separate lift ticket or have a season pass from the ski area.  Buck Hill offers a discount if you purchase your ticket ahead of time online.

FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM

You can find us on Facebook and Instagram!  We share many things on social media including our league racers of the week and photos from each race.  We also post information about schedule changes and cancellations.  Sponsor events and sales are shared too!

FASTEST / FAST / MOST IMPROVED RACERS OF THE WEEK

Fastest: Always the female and male, girl and boy with the lowest handicap at that race. This award will be given out all seven weeks.

Fast: This is the next fastest female and male, girl and boy who have not received a fast or fastest award yet. This award will be given out all seven weeks.

Most Improved: Always the female and male, boy and girl with the most improvement from the previous week. This award can be given to someone who has earned it before. This award is given out at weeks two through seven.

Each winner will receive an award certificate. The top five in each category are announced each week. Winners are posted in the newsletter each week.

LIABILITY FORMS FOR THE SEASON

Every Ski Challenge member needs to fill out a liability waiver online.  This only needs to be done once and will be completed if you fill out an online registration form.  If you did not register online, paid at the hill and signed a paper waiver, this only covers you for the race you signed at.  You still need to sign an online waiver.  You can go here to see if you have signed a waiver online:  ONLINE WAIVER PAGE

We will be sending an email after week 1 to all racers who have not set signed an online form.

Happy Retirement to Joel and Linda!

Joel and Linda have worked with Ski Challenge for 30+ years. They were an integral part of the formative years. Linda and Joel first worked for Patricia Lecy, the original owner of Ski Challenge. They helped set up leagues at Wild Mountain, Welch Village, Powder Ridge, Hyland, and Buck Hill. They also helped enormously at our Championships at Giants Ridge. They have decided to step away from Ski Challenge work and will be greatly missed!
