A Note From Your Rookie Supervisors…

From Alicia...

Thanks to everyone for an incredible season! I am very proud of you all and of the success that we created as a team. I appreciate all the support, tips and tricks that you generously sent my way and for hanging with me as I explored my role in Youth Programs. The comradery I felt here is incomparable and I am already looking forward to next season. Good luck to all of you this summer! I hope to see next year.

From Jenn...

I just want to say it’s been a blast working in the Ski and Snowboard School this year. For being my first year it immediately felt like family and I am so excited to see you all next year and to get to know all of you more!! I want to give a shout out to the best staff I have ever supervised, ok maybe my only, but hey, the employees I was gifted with this year have far exceeded my expectations and are the best group of people I could have ever asked for, thank you guys for making this year stellar! See you on the flip side!

From Sydney...

Hi guys! Just wanted to throw out a massive thank you for making my first season here at Stevens Pass and SSS so great! I’ve enjoyed getting to work and play with all of you and am so thankful for your kind welcoming into the ski school family! Thanks for putting up with my complicated emails and obnoxious animal pictures 🙂 I’m already looking forward to next winter and hope to see you guys around this summer!!
