In order to make the drop off and pick up process as safe, efficient and convenient as possible, SSCV has adopted the following procedures for drop off and pick up of athletes. Also note that the Town of Vail and Vail Resorts Base Operations expects SSCV to manage congestion and delays on Vail Valley Drive so we also ask for your cooperation in minimizing our impact on the traffic flow.
We ask that you take note of procedures for drop off and pick up on HIGH IMPACT DAYS compared to NON HIGH IMPACT DAYS.
HIGH IMPACT DAYS: WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS
- SSCV Clubhouse driveway to be used only for drop off and pick up, with a maximum stay of 5 minutes. Parking during high impact days is not available. Unauthorized vehicles left unattended may be booted, relocated and/or a fine imposed.
- On high impact days program start and ending times will be staggered to allow a consistent flow of traffic through the Clubhouse driveway.
- SSCV staff will be on site directing the traffic flow and assisting you with loading or unloading your vehicle on high impact days
NON- HIGH IMPACT DAYS: weekdays (and non-holidays)
We ask that you follow the same general procedures for drop off and pick up on NON-HIGH IMPACT days, but we will have limited parking space to conduct club business (tune shop, coaches meeting, etc.) Please pull your vehicle as far forward as possible and park either on the left or right side. Also in every case, please leave the keys to your vehicle in the ignition so that SSCV personnel may move the vehicle as needed based on traffic demand.
ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION
- Dropping off at the Gold Peak Lodge or Children’s Center is NEVER an option. Using those areas for pick up and drop off is not allowed by Vail Resorts, and your vehicle could be subject to a traffic ticket or being towed
- One exception is too many. Daily, many cars are left in the drop off/ pick up zone while parent’s “run inside real quick”. Please note the following suggestions to make necessary trips inside.
- Are you aware that parking the Town of Vail structures is free for the 1st two hours? Drop off the kids, park in a Town of Vail parking area and return to the clubhouse on foot.
- SSCV encourages you to conduct other business between 9:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Please be mindful that the SSCV lot remains a loading and unloading zone all day long through the winter and keep your visits as short as possible.
- To manage drop off and pick up more effectively, or if you need to conduct business on high impact mornings/afternoons you may consider the two adult method where one parent hops out while the other exits the parking lot and then returns a few minutes later to pick the 1st adult up.
