OUTGOING DIRECTORS

Dave Grant

DAVE GRANT, MEMBER ENGAGEMENT It is hard to believe that four years on the Board have now passed and I am officially “retired.” When I reflect on what my time on the Board has meant the word that most comes to mind is gratitude. Gratitude to all of the members who engage so enthusiastically with the Club and help make Alpine the wonderful place it is. Gratitude to the member volunteers who dedicate their time and knowledge to various events throughout the year and without whom these events would not be possible. Gratitude to my fellow Board members, both current and past, who have volunteered countless hours to ensure Alpine has been and will continue to be run with member experience at the forefront. And finally, gratitude to the management and staff. COVID-19 dealt an incredibly challenging hand and the staff delivered the best possible experience from member engagement, to programs to fiscal prudence. It was truly remarkable. Over the last several years, Men’s Days, Ladies’ Days and our Après-ski events have grown to be among the best events on the ridge and it has been very rewarding to see the level of member engagement. I very much look forward to the coming season and I will #seeyouatthebar.

KERINA WILLIAMSON, MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS #alpinefamily #alpinetogether #alpineforever

As a retiring Marketing & Communications Director, it’s a bit ironic that I’ve been at a loss for words to express what I’ve learned most from my experience at Alpine. Where do I begin when I have learned so much? Then, at Alpine’s Fall Festival, it suddenly struck me. Outdoor sports are what we do – family is who we are. It may sound simple, but as I looked across the terrace that day, the joy of members and friends coming together again was beautifully palpable. It’s been so long since we’ve been able to look forward and enjoy each other’s company in person. At that moment, I couldn’t help but reflect on what we have all been through – individually and together. Since March 2020, I’ve heard countless touching stories of members supporting one another through the most trying times. That’s what family is all about. I am so excited to see Alpine’s next chapter and all the great things we will do together as Alpine’s family. I would like to thank my fellow Board members, the Management team, and the staff. Your passion, dedication, and tireless efforts are truly inspiring. We are all incredibly fortunate to share a community that cares so much.

JACQUIE NEWALL CHAPMAN, MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS #familyandfriends As I end my term on the Alpine Board, I am filled with both gratitude and optimism. The Alpine community showed creativity and perseverance last year to make a challenging season innovative, memorable, and safe. Thank you to the incredible team who work tirelessly to provide us with so many new ways to enjoy the Club! As we head into the next phase of Alpine’s evolution, I am excited about our continued growth in new members, our expanded offerings both on and off the slopes, and our strengthened community. We have so much to be proud of – and that solid platform will allow us to continue to grow, diversify and differentiate. SKIDOODLE 2022 10
