The Council acknowledged the progress reports from the respective Council Members, representatives and Organising Committees and that all the various preparations appear to be going according to schedule. Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Oberhofen (SUI), November 2014 - 2 - Additionally, the Council confirmed the above dates of the 2019 FIS World Championships in Åre (SWE), Seefeld (AUT) and Park City (USA). 3.2 Candidates for future FIS World Championships The Council appointed Sollefteå (SWE) as Organiser for the FIS Roller Skiing World Championships in 2017. 3.3 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships - Qualification In Barcelona the Alpine Committee proposed to the Council to reduce the number of competitors for the 2nd run from 60 to 30, so the leader after the 1st run is last to compete as is the case in World Cup. This change was already foreseen for the 2015 Championships. Shortly after the Congress several National Ski Associations raised their concerns, notably because the decision to have 60 participants in the second run of the technical events was a Congress decision in 2010. Consequently at its Meeting in Oberhofen, the Council decided it would be necessary to submit a proposal to change of the number of participants in the second run from 60 to 30 to the FIS Congress in 2016, Therefore it is not applicable for the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2015 in Vail Beaver Creek (USA) and the number of participants in the 2nd run of the technical events at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2015 in Vail Beaver Creek (USA) will remain at 60. In order that the winning athletes are properly celebrated by the spectators and are captured on the live television transmission, a presentation of the winners through a leaders applause will take place after the top 30 are in the finish, before positions 31 to 60 race. 4. The FIS Junior World Championships 4.1 Future Championships The Council Members or representative on behalf of the respective organising National Ski Association reported on the following upcoming events: FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships 2015, Hafjell (NOR): Vice- President Sverre Seeberg FIS Nordic Junior World Ski Championships 2015, Almaty (KAZ): Council Member Andrey Bokarev on behalf of the Ski Federation of Kazakhstan (Council representative at the Championships: Roman Kumpost) FIS Snowboard Junior World Championships 2015, Yabuli (CHN): Vice- President Sung Won Lee on behalf of the Chinese Ski Association FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships 2016 in Sochi (RUS): Council Member Andrey Bokarev FIS Nordic Junior World Ski Championships 2016 in Rasnov (ROU): Secretary General Sarah Lewis on behalf of the Romanian Ski Association (Council representative at the Championships: Roman Kumpost) Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Oberhofen (SUI), November 2014 - 3 - FIS Snowboard Junior World Championships 2017 in Klinovec (CZE): Council Member Roman Kumpost The Council acknowledged the progress reports on behalf of the various Organising Committees and confirmed that it will be represented at the respective Championships by the Council Member from the host nation where possible, or as indicated otherwise. 4.2 Candidates for future Junior Championships The Council appointed the following new Organiser: - Valmalenco (ITA) as Organiser of the FIS Junior Freestyle World Ski Championships in 2015 5. The International Olympic Committee / Olympic Winter Games President Gian Franco Kasper reported on the activities of the International Olympic Committee. He stated that it is an important time in the history of the Olympic Movement with the Olympic Agenda 2020, a strategic roadmap for the future of the Olympic Movement, defining the direction of the organisation in the future and thus to a large extent international sport. President Gian Franco Kasper is a member of the Olympic Summit (a group convened by IOC President Thomas Bach comprising the leaders representing groups of stakeholders in the Olympic Movement to contribute to and drive the Olympic Agenda 2020) and he updated the Council about the latest situation. 14 Working Groups were established as part of Olympic Agenda 2020 to help frame some of the key recommendations that were deliberated by the IOC Commissions and Executive Board, before they will be presented to the Extraordinary IOC Session that will take place on 8th and 9th December in Monte Carlo. The 20 + 20 Recommendations to shape the future of the Olympic Movement which will be presented to the IOC Session were communicated publicly by the IOC coincidentally during the FIS Council Meeting on 18th November and they can be viewed in full through the following link http://www.olympic.org/Documents/Olympic_Agenda_2020/Olympic_Agenda_2020-20- 20_Recommendations-ENG.pdf Key areas that concern FIS and the Olympic Winter Games are: - Shape the bidding process as an invitation A sustainable approach for the Games will be endorsed, so that existing venues are used instead of insisting on compact Games in order to avoid building white elephants and prevent an explosion of costs on facilities. - Evaluate bid cities by assessing key opportunities and risks The IOC will provide specialist advice to assist shape the bid and reduce the involvement of expensive consultants who are just focused on winning the election. Expertise from the IFs to assist the OCOGs technical preparations for the Games will be facilitated. Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Oberhofen (SUI), November 2014 - 4 - - Reduce the cost of bidding - Include sustainability in all aspects of the Olympic Games and within the Olympic Movement’s daily operations - Set a framework for the Olympic programme (number of athletes, officials, events) and move from a sport-based to an event-based programme. The limitation of the number of events, athletes and officials for the Olympic Winter Games will remain at the present level of 100 events, 2’900 athletes and 2’000 officials. The Games programme should no longer be limited to sports (IFs) but changed to events. Therefore individual events could be replaced and/or introduced from new sports and disciplines. - Reduce the cost and reinforce the flexibility of Olympic Games management Use the knowledge and competence of the International Federations in preparing the organisation of the Game - Change the philosophy

    From: Lee Greenwald To: FS-objections-pnw-mthood Subject: Twilight Parking lot Date: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:44:20 PM Attachments: 2013 International Report on Snow Mountain Tourism.pdf Cross-country skiing experiencing a Nordic renaissance Olympian.pdf Twilight Parking Lot OBJECTION 3-1-14 EAE v2.doc Dear objections official, I previously raised several objections concerning Mt Hood Meadows application to build the Twilight Parking lot. Though some, not all, of these objections were ostensibly addressed in their responses, they were not addressed fully nor adequately. I raised concerns regarding Meadows assumptions on growth in demand for Alpine skiing. The last ten years MHM stated continued growth trends, but actually the most recent previous two years that has not been the trend. The true growth is in Nordic skiing. The majority of the Nordic community is against the creation of the Twilight lot without a comprehensive analysis of potential future use of this terrain, and nearby Nordic trails and connecting trails. This type of analysis has not been done, and would be precluded by proceeding with the construction of the Twilight lot before all future use options have been considered. Second, I asked that MHM be required by the FS to place the funds, $500,000, for a Nordic center in a designated account for a future Nordic center building, and a restrictive timeline for construction. If the parking lot is to be built, the Nordic community should have some prior input on the Nordic facility to be built prior to the lots final approval. The response that was posted simply stated that "a" facility would be built within three years.
