The International Olympic Committee The main activities of the IOC since the FIS Congress in Antalya included the organisation of the first Youth Olympic Games which took place in Singapore from 14 th to 26 th August. In June, the IOC organised a seminar about gambling and the potential dangers for sport. During both the Olympic Games in Beijing 2008 and the Winter Games in Vancouver 2010, the IOC monitored betting patterns. The IOC Executive Board (EB) met recently in Acapulco (MEX) and decided that it is looking favorably at the inclusion of ladies’ Ski Jumping, Freestyle ski half-pipe, Freestyle ski slopestyle, Snowboard slopestyle, along with events from other Sports namely the Biathlon mixed team relay, Figure Skating team event and Luge team relay in the programme of the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. However, before taking a final decision, the IOC EB said it would like to consider the outcome of the respective World Championships during the winter season in 2011. FIS President Gian Franco Kasper stated that FIS is pleased to know that four of our event requests are seen favorably by the IOC Executive Board. At the same time, FIS is very disappointed that out of all proposed new events on the Olympic Winter Games program across all sports, the only one excluded from the positive list is the Alpine Team Event. It is difficult explain why the most established discipline that is best liked in terms of global TV audiences would not be considered further. This has already been expressed officially to the IOC with a request to study also the Alpine Team Event at the upcoming FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. The IOC Olympic Programme Commission analysed all the requests put forward by the International Federations based and submitted its findings to the EB. The key positive factors included whether the changes would increase universality, gender equity and youth appeal, and in general add value to the Games. Other considerations included the cost of infrastructure, and the impact on the overall quota Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Oberhofen (SUI), November 2010 4 and the number of events. Final decisions on the events to be included on the Sochi 2014 programme rest with IOC President Jacques Rogge and are planned to be taken in early spring 2011. 5.1 Youth Olympic Games 2012 in Innsbruck The second meeting of the IOC Coordination Commission, chaired by FIS President Gian Franco Kasper took place in Innsbruck from 29 th to 30 th June 2010. A change of the venues was confirmed with the Snowboard and Freestyle Skiing events to be moved to Kuhtai from Seefeld, which will host the Nordic events. President Gian Franco Kasper and Council Member Peter Schröcksnadel reported about the status to the facilities. Permission has been granted for an upgrade to the Alpine course in Patscherkofel to enable one finish area for all competitions, whilst a new Ski Jumping hill in Seefeld and a new Biathlon shooting range will be built.

    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.
