 The Mt Peter Race Club is the parent booster organization of the
Mt. Peter Race Team. Our mission is to support the race program to enhance the overall ski racing experience for all Mt. Peter racers. The Club is one leg of a 3-legged stool: The parent organization (Club), the Race Program (Coaches), and the Mountain. When all three legs hold up their end, the program works! We have excellent coaches and we get tremendous support from our mountain – and our parent organization is outstanding! We’re also a very “social” organization – we like to hang out together during the season and enjoy our “winter friends”. A 10-member Board coordinates our Club's activities:
Club dues are $25 per racer, with a $75 family maximum. There is also a $100/per family volunteer bond. Once a family achieves its required “5 Volunteer Points” the volunteer bond is returned. But there is no penalty for earning more than 5 Volunteer Points! We always need help to run races, coordinate events, sell raffle tickets – there’s plenty of opportunity to earn 5+ Volunteer Points.
Our Club dues and fundraising efforts go to improve the overall experience for all racers. The Club sponsors the annual Parent Social, End of Season Party, and Fun Race for Dynamites, Dev Team, and J5/J6 racers. It also pays for post-season awards, coaches gifts, coaches support at post season events, our USSA race sanction fees, timing equipment so that we can host NJSRA/USSA races, and honorariums for expert guest coaches to work with our racers. This year one of our initiatives under consideration is to purchase video equipment so coaches can provide video analysis and review with all racers. Important fundraisers throughout the year include Warwick Applefest, ski raffle, car magnet sale, Lake Tahoe condo raffle, and any other ideas are welcome!
Thank you in advance for joining the Mt. Peter Race Club and for your support of our athletes. It is greatly appreciated. Think Snow!
