2022 safety grant program opens
To US Ski & Snowboard Alpine member clubs:
The Kelly Brush Foundation is excited to announce that our 2022 Ski Racing Safety Grant Program application is now OPEN. The application deadline is Friday, June 24, 2022.
This is your opportunity to receive support from the Kelly Brush Foundation to purchase safety equipment. Is your B-Net starting to age and need replacement? Do you need more netting for proper safety installations? Are you opening a new race or training trail? Do you have other obstacles that need better protection?
ABOUT THE KBF’S SKI RACING SAFETY MISSION
APPLY HERE
DEADLINE: Friday, June 24, 2022
Please share this email with everyone on the team at your club that makes on-hill safety as well as budget decisions.
We at the Kelly Brush Foundation hope safety is always a priority discussion at your club. Since Kelly’s injury in 2006 we have been committed to leading the discussion on safety and have backed up our advocacy with almost 200 grants to clubs around the country to improve safety on their venue. If you have any questions about our grant program, your application, or anything else about the Kelly Brush Foundation’s ski racing safety mission, don’t hesitate to reach out.
About the KBF Ski Racing Safety Equipment Grant Program
The Kelly Brush Foundation Ski Racing Safety Grant Program is intended to help Alpine ski race programs and venues purchase safety equipment. All grants are matching (meaning we will only fund up to half of an equipment purchase). We have been administering this program for 15 years in addition to the safety advocacy and educational programming we provide the ski racing community.
About the KBF
Since Kelly sustained a spinal cord injury ski racing in an NCAA D-I race in 2006, we are proud of the change we’ve driven in the culture of safety. We have helped purchase over 15 miles of b-netting, supported trail widening projects, and contributed to other safety measures at hundreds of venues around the country. We are confident that every US Ski & Snowboard Alpine racer around the country races at least one venue (or many more) every year that we have made safer. Learn more about our ski racing safety mission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygePbuie8Q4
Thank you for your commitment to safety and please reach out with any questions.
Best,
Zeke Davisson

2022 Bryce Astle IMC final weekend nears
The 2022 Bryce Astle IMC Series will end this weekend with the finale being at Snowbird. It has been a great series and we’ve had two athletes dominate the Series!! The current overall standings are as follows:
Women
1. Reagan Harrison-JHSC
2. Natalie Gowe- SVSEF
3. Lowie Watkins- SVSEF
Men
1. Karsten Schillinger-RM
2. Max Meucci- SVSEF
3. Austin Aten- PCSS
Typically, the IMC awards would be awarded at the conclusion of these races. Due to a conflict with U16 Nationals in Sugarloaf, Maine, a lot of the award recipients will not be at the finale of the Bryce Astle IMC series. Instead the awards will be given out at the IMD Spring meetings in May. Hopefully next year, we will once again ring the cowbell in Bryce’s honor.
Good Luck to everyone at the SnowCup and Last Chance races.

2022 PC South Series race announcement
Hi All,
We have a concern that the format previously discussed for the South Series will not work according to plan. While the idea of a 3rd day added to the races, where the non-competitive U10’s and U12’s can race along with the non-competitive U14’sx is a good idea. We are finding that the 3rd day of racing really hasn’t gained that much traction and will not have a viable field size. We are reverting back to the format of just a 2 day race.
The South Series will still be gender split. The first two races will start with the girls on the first day and the last two races will start with the boys on the first day.
We will revisit this idea again in the spring.
Thanks so much,
Carma

Mark Archer named BBSEF Program Director, Head Coach
On behalf of the Bogus Basin Ski Education Board of Directors, it is a pleasure to announce that Mark Archer, aka “Speedy”, has accepted the position of BBSEF Program Director and Head Coach.
Coach Archer is a lifelong ski and snow sport enthusiast with wide-ranging experience in all aspects of U8 to U21 athlete development and performance. His passion for the sport has taken him from regional, national, and international competitions as a competitor to worldwide venues as a World Cup Service Technician and World Cup Service Program Director. Yet program development and coaching are where he thrives as reflected in the roster of athletes that he has successfully coached to Olympic, World Championship, NCAA National and Regional podiums.
He is the founder and owner of Speedy’s Ski Camps – yearly training programs held in Squaw Valley, Mt. Hood and Sweden. Coach Archer is a Level 300 USSA Certified coach and has worked with development programs throughout the US, most recently as the Men’s/Women’s Head Alpine Club Team Coach at St. Michael’s College in Vermont and previously as the Senior Program Director at Mount Snow Ski Academy also in Vermont.
As a former successful junior, FIS, Can-Am and professional athlete, Coach Archer possesses a personal connection to the highs and lows of competition and a commitment to developing athletes who are not only technically skilled, and tactically sound, but are unwavering in their approach to being physically and academically fit as well as being kind and caring individuals.
“My goal is to use my proven teaching and programming practices to champion BBSEF athletes to their best performance levels,” he said.
Please join us in welcoming Program Director and Head Coach Mark Archer to the Bogus Basin Ski Education Foundation, US Ski and Snowboard’s Development Club of the Year.
