Updated Mission and Vision• Mission Statement - To create a program where athletes can develop to their

highest potential – both in ski racing and in academic endeavors; building character and sportsmanship. We will guide and hold athletes, parents, coaches, and board members to the highest professional standards in ethics and sport. We will work to develop a passion for the sport of skiing, for fitness, for community, for academics, and for personal excellence.

• Vision Statement - To develop and maintain one of the top non-profit USSA competitive skiing programs in the Nation; where athletes achieve their personal goals. The Foundation will increase the local community's awareness of alpine ski racing and facilitate the continuous growth of winter sports in Northern Utah through community involvement. The Foundation is committed to helping the State of Utah continue its ongoing Legacy of ‘The State of Sport’ through the development of model citizens and future Champions.
