Volunteer Commitments
Crystal Mountain Alpine Club is predominantly a volunteer organization. We depend on Parent participation to ensure our season runs smoothly. Becoming active in our club as a volunteer is one of the best ways you can learn more about the sport of ski racing and our club.
CMAC requires Families to volunteer as part of our Annual Registration process (see number of days below). On the registration page you will see the option for a volunteer deposit. At the end of the season, the deposit will be returned to each family that completes their volunteer commitments. For example, a Sunday Mighty Mite family is asked to volunteer 4 days (some positions count as more than one day). CMAC will return the full deposit if all 4 days are completed. If the family only completes a fraction of the required 4 days, they are refunded their deposit at a rate prorated to the buyout cost. For example, if they complete 2 of the 4 days required, they will be billed for two days at the buy out rate of $150 per day ($100 for Saturday MM Prep).
Families that choose not to volunteer may select the buyout option for $600 ($400 for Saturday MM Prep) at the time of registering.
Note that if you have athletes in both the Prep and other programs, your family is subject to the larger of the volunteer requirements.

Helpful tips for volunteering:
- Sign up early to secure the position and dates you prefer.
- Remember that volunteer race days do not always coincide with your racers schedule. Please Check the training calendar and plan accordingly. You may or may not have lunches at the same time as your child.
- Ask questions - we will help.
- Sign in early on volunteer days so you can catch your breath before heading out to your position.
- Remember your ski gear and be prepared for the ever changing Pacific NW weather.
- Please choose your volunteer commitment days by 01/15/2013 or you will be charged the full buyout amount.
Volunteer Opportunities
This season we have several opportunities available for you to consider. Please be sure to review this comprehensive list of Volunteer Positions (doc) for more information. A summary of these includes:
- Race Volunteer – This season CMAC is hosting 6 races at Crystal. Each race requires approximately 50 volunteers in order to be successful.
- Special Events Volunteer – Every year CMAC holds several special events and we need volunteers to help organize and run these events for the club. This year we are planning a Social, Prep season BBQ , and End of Season Banquet.
- Race Program Representative - Parent/Coach/Program Communications are critical and every season we rely on Race Program Representatives to keep the lines of communications open.
- Officials/Judges - Parents can also become licensed officials by taking a training session offered in the fall. Email Kari, Jeff or April for details. You can find out a bit more by checking the USSA website. http://www.ussa.org/magnoliaPublic/ussa/en/formembers/officials/about.html

Note: Volunteer Positions are allocated on a first come first served basis starting the day the 2012/2013 Application becomes available. Failure to schedule your volunteer days and/or missed volunteer days will result in a charge to you at the buy-out daily rate of $150 to $200/per day. Please choose your position and race days carefully as we can not run a successful race without your help. Please sing up for your days prior to January 15th!
