The Far West Ski Association and member councils benefit greatly from belonging to the National Ski Council Federation (NSCF). The Federation provides Far West councils an opportunity to interact with ski councils in the central and eastern United States to exchange ideas and get information to disseminate to member clubs. Dialog with ski industry representatives is an integral component of the annual national meeting, which was held this year at Mammoth Mountain, September, 15-18. The Federation provides a wide variety of benefits to members. If your ski council belongs to the Federation, you are also a member of the Federation. The Members Only section of the Federation website contains a resource center with templates for by-laws, requests for proposal for trip bids, club officer job descriptions and other documents that clubs can adapt to meet their unique needs. The user name and password for the Members Only section are available from council presidents. The website also offers members a variety of attractive discounts on items such as travel insurance, ski rentals, lodging, car rentals, and a variety of ski gear in the Members Only section of the website. The Federation website will have a complete renovation this year that will expand the information offered and improve navigation within the site. Look for it and check it out! The Federation was formed in 1997 to provide councils an opportunity to exchange information and to discuss important issues that impact clubs and councils throughout the United States. The current officers are: President, Joe Harvis (New Jersey Ski Council); Vice President, Dennis Heffley (Bay Area Snow Sports Council); Treasurer, Dawn Peterman-Harris (Metropolitan Milwaukee Ski Council); Secretary, Lisa Beregi (Crescent Ski Council – Eastern U.S.).
