This week marks the halfway point in the Black River Middle School Snowsports Program. This low-cost Wednesday afternoon opportunity affords middle school students the chance to ski, snowboard, ice skate, or nordic ski for eight weeks in the winter. Black River's participation in the program and collaboration with Okemo Mountain Resort has been excellent, and Black River would like to express much gratitude to Okemo. We are also appreciative of the generosity of parent and community volunteers each week for assistance with supervision.
Black River Middle School is writing to immediately seek candidates for Program Coordinator for the Black River Middle School Snowsports Program. Since there are still several weeks of the program remaining, there would be an opportunity to cross-train the upcoming coordinator with Ms. McBain, who has managed this program for BRMS for the past four seasons. Ludlow Elementary School's program is run solely by parent volunteers, and it is the hope that parents at Black River will take this on so that the program may continue next year. Please be in touch with Black River High/Middle School at 228-4721 if you are interested in volunteering as the Snowsports Coordinator for the 2012-2013 season.
Duties for this position include a Coordinator’s meeting with Okemo in early November, distributing information to students and parents/collecting registrations, coordinating volunteers, explaining procedures to students, and supervising students and volunteers at the mountain each week. There are trainings for volunteers regarding rentals supervision and instruction for students. The job requires collaboration with the school cafeteria for student lunches, coordination of transportation with the municipal bus system, and working with the school to cut one check for the payment to Okemo.
