The next nine days will prove to be an incredibly exciting time as a record number of SSCV athletes and alumni continue to display countless examples of CHARACTER, COURAGE AND COMMITMENT in pushing their physical and mental abilities to the limits in order to try to secure a spot at the Sochi Olympics. Please join me in wishing them well in their pursuit of excellence over the next 9 days as well as joining me at Solaris Plaza on February 1 to celebrate those SSCV athletes and alumni who achieve this Olympic status!
Additional details on the One Year Countdown Celebration will be provided shortly.
To further celebrate USSA National Club Day, SSCV is creating an Olympic torch to represent the spirit of our club as well as participating in a coast-to-coast snowsport parade with clubs across the country via a “virtual parade” video involving SSCV athletes representing each of our snowsports.
The February 1 events will provide the opportunity to get together as a club, celebrate our mission and gain exposure with prospective families and supporters. We also want to thank our current athletes, families, members, the resort and community for their continued commitment and efforts.
Sincerely,
Aldo Radamus
