BW Champs/U14 Finals Pacific Northwest Ski Association A Division of USSA Buddy Werner Update Feb. 15, 2015 Due to the snow conditions at Mt. Spokane, SSRA has asked SARS to co-host the 2015 Buddy Werner Championship, holding the event at Schweitzer Mountain Resort. SSRA and SARS are working together to produce an excellent Buddy Werner event in a very trying snow year. Schweitzer Mt. Resort has agreed to partner with the two clubs to provide venues for SL and GS and, if there is enough snow, Super G. Schedule details to follow.

The three-day racing event starts on Friday, March 13 and will feature slalom, giant slalom and super-G races for over 200 athletes from the Pacific Northwest. For a lot of the racers and their families, this is the first time they have been to the Sandpoint area and according to Jamie Landwehr, the Program Director for SARS, the reception has been good. “We have families and coaches from Oregon, Washington, and Northern Idaho who are here only because of this race. This event is a fantastic opportunity to introduce them to our mountain and our town.” The U-14 event is the culmination of the 2014/15 ski racing season. “There are 19 teams comprised of 12 & 13 year olds who have competed all season long hoping to make it to the championships,” said Conney Edmondson the race administrator from SARS. “We were really worried that we were going to have to cancel the race but Schweitzer stepped in and has worked really, really hard to make this event happen.” “We’re glad that we are in a position to help both organizations go forward with the race,” said Tom Chasse, CEO of Schweitzer Mountain Resort. “These kids have been working hard all season long and to cancel the championships due to lack of snow would have been heartbreaking for them.” Schweitzer has been able to continue operations this season despite the low snow-pack thanks to the resort’s grooming and snowmaking efforts. Colder temps at the end of February and in early March made it possible to make snow at night while still having warmer than average temperatures during the day. “It’s obvious the groomers have been working so hard to keep the mountain in good shape,” said Edmondson. “We’ve had so many parents thank us for making the event possible and we couldn’t have done that without all the hard work from the Schweitzer staff. These kids are thrilled to be here and so excited to race.” ### About Schweitzer Mountain Resort Schweitzer Mountain Resort is quickly rising in the ranks of the nation’s top destination resorts with 2900 acres of amazing terrain and renowned tree skiing. Located in the rugged Selkirk Mountains of the northern Idaho panhandle and the northwest Rocky Mountains, Schweitzer overlooks the town of Sandpoint and Lake Pend Oreille. Schweitzer is well known for its two massive bowls, breathtaking views and amazing gladed terrain. For more information on Schweitzer Mountain Resort call 877.487.4643 or visit www.schweitzer.com.

    September 17, 2019 PRESIDENT’S LETTER A Commitment to Professional Development An efficient professional organization exists to serve its members. As Janet Franz wrote in our March 2019 newsletter (posted to NASJA.org, NASJA can trace its roots back to late 1962, days when most press members wrote about snowsports for print outlets. Now that the number of media outlets have grown exponentially, although not particularly remuneratively, the need for professional development is as strong as ever, particularly in regards to pitching stories that will resonate with editors, and by extension, readers, viewers or listeners. To that end, earlier this month we held a Communicators Camp during the New England Summit in Sunday River for 60 industry professionals, and plan further professional development during our Nov. 15 meeting in Boston at the Seaport World Trade Center, held in conjunction with the Boston.com Ski & Snowboard Expo. Broadcast journalism teacher and Boston Globe sportswriter Eric Wilbur will discuss how to more effectively pitch stories to editors. It’s our hope that through professional development we can make snowsports journalism less a labor of love, and more profitable for our members. We thank our corporate members for identifying newsworthy elements of their businesses, and we thank our more seasoned members for sharing their expertise in communicating the role snowsports plays in enriching the lives of millions of North Americans. Finally, don’t forget to consider entering or recommending to another snowsports journalist that he or she enter the 2019 Harold S. Hirsch Awards, the “Oscars” of snowports journalism. Two categories to consider: WORDS and IMAGES.
