  • Rusty Parka News
    Rusty Parka News Vol. 59 Issue 1 www.nspcentral.org Fall 2020 Division Director’s Report It’s fall and folks are getting ready for the season. At least one resort has opened, and skiers are anxious to hit the slopes. As we get ready and are thinking about staying safe ourselves, there are several things to report and information to get out to you. COVID-19 safety information was distributed to the Patrol Directors through the Region Directors. This information and recommendations were put together by a Central Division Medical Committee headed by our Division Medical Supervisor Dan Goldberger with the Medical Advisors from all the regions. Remember these are only recommendations as each resort partner has the responsibility for guest, employee and patrol safety per their own protocols and procedures. Mike Schons Division Director This said, the Division and regions have cancelled all face-to-face events this sea- son. I know this is disappointing to a number of folks who are working to improve their skill sets and obtain higher certifications. I apologize for this, but we are a safety organization and your safety in this environment is our primary concern. Youth Protection Training, you have heard me talk about it in previous articles. The requirement is now in the National Policies and Procedures, Chapter 13. This is great training and well worth the one and a half hours necessary to complete. It is a requirement for some; however, I encourage all members to take the training, especially if you have a desire to become active in patrol leadership or become an Instructor.

As I write this it’s just a few days before Christmas, and it’s not looking very much like winter, however will hope that will change by the time you read this. Another year is in the books, and if you are like me, your slamming it shut! I have no words other than to start by paying respect to a long standing member we recently said goodbye to. For those who do not know, Senny Wegner passed away recently. He has been a long-time member and attended most every trip and will be missed. At the time of writing this article, our Midwest trips are proceeding as drive-up. There is still room on our trips to Powderhorn and Houghton. We have quite a few day trips planned for you as well with the full details included as always in this newsletter. Interested members should read further for all the details and if applicable, get their registration in today, to ensure they are accounted for. The Board is beginning the planning process for Spring Banquet 2021, with a possibility of an in-person once again. One thing is for certain, is the election of officers with the positions of President and Social Chair being open this year. We are working out the details, and nothing is set in stone as of yet, so make sure to read the upcoming newsletters for updates on how we will address the banquet and elections.
