Motion to have a summer social meeting (Anderson - Zeigler) - Carried. Woody Anderson was appointed Chairman and he picked his committee - Jack Simpson, Bob Smith. An ISIA sponsored Pro Race (Instructors Only) was brought up by Dennis Staley. Some of the points mentioned regarding the race were: spectator interest, additional income for ISIA, having a substantial entry fee to be used for prize money and ISIA advertising, stimulate interest and enthusiasm, bringing certified instructors before the public, logical time being during clinic. Action: Staley to present to membership 23 April 1966. Keith Lange stated that he had been asked by some area operators to present to the ISIA a request that a policy be established as to what area operators should provide for ski instructors and coaches. It was felt that this was the job of the Intermountain Division of the USSA. The president announced that Roger Haran is representing ISIA at the Area Operators meeting in Jackson this weekend. Woody Anderson presented some points on not certifying associates. Discussion followed. Motion: That the Secretary and Treasurer be paid $100.00 each (Anderson - Smith) - Carried.

Motion: To ~djourn (12:15 a.m.)- (Zeigler - Frank) - Carried. As Approved by Board of Directors R. Lou Lorenz, President Date- ---- ----------------- ""-~~-"--"---------- APPENDIX A - PRESIDENT'S REPORT Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #4 The PSIA convention at Mammoth last year was attended by several ISlA members. The recommendation by PSIA regarding the special use permit was acted on by this Board at Jackson. The Fall Examiners Meeting was very successful and it was suggested by the President that this become an annual affair. An increase membership has put additional work load on Cert Chairman, Sec., and Treasurer and the possibilities of hiring an Executive Secretary should be considered. 146 candidates went through the examination last year, 162 this year. Our relationship with the Forest Service was discussed, i.e., special use permits. 6 regions approved the move; 1 region opposed it; 2 wanted to see it on a trial basis. The Forest Service has dropped the requirement for Certification in the Special Use Permit, the following stipulations applying: that the Instr. Assoc. keep in close contact with each other and that the F.S. keep in closer contact with the Assoc. Our association should be on a more professional basis and make for better growth with the same high standards. This will now allow the Ski Schools to use apprentice people in any number they wish which in turn will help Instructor Associations. One hundred-fifty applications maximum is all a Chief Examiner can handle on a part time basis, that it is difficult to get enough examiners, and that more people in­volved in examinations will mean watering down of standards. There are 650 fully certified in the East and they had 75 this year. I recommend ISlA examine only for fully certified. Discussion on the report followed. APPENDIX B - SECRETARY'S REPORT I feel that there has been a definite disadvantage to my removed geographical location from that of the President and Treasurer. If at all possible it would be advantageous fa them to live in the same metropolis. We have been quite successful in keeping our correspondence up to date. However, there are certainly inefficiencies in the system which should be eliminated this next year. It has been a great help this year to have the clinic committee handle registration. This practice should certainly be persued further. I have started some research on the aspects of hiring an Executive Secretary. I wrote inquiries to both RMSIA and FWSIA. I received only material from RMSIA, the following of which is a summary adopted 4 years ago when RMSIA had a membership of approximately 300: - Salary: $175.00 per month and will probably increase; Functions: handles all administrative work, reproduction of mailing, cards, banking, treasuring, etc.; RMSIA equipment - electric typewriter, photocopy machine, addressorett, electric mimeograph, metal files. APPENDIX C - TREASURERS REPORT Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #5 4-15-66 REVISION TO THE PRESENT TREASURY POLICY THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN JACKSON, WYOMING - 10-2-65. I have, at this time, found that the present treasury policy as set up by me at the subject meeting not to be an effective trouble free system for payment of our representatives in the Association's work. Therefore, I am requesting a reV1S10n. This revision I have been using since 28 February 1966 whereon I obtained the approval from the executive committee quorum at Solitude Ski resort examination. As the policy reads in the 2 October 1965 minutes of that Board of Directors meeting, I am revision: Examiners shall be paid the amount of $25.00 per day fee for a day of examination. They shall also be reimbursed for their meals at a flat rate of $8.00 per day. No receipts are necessary. Examiners will also be reimbursed for their lodging expense by receipt only. An expense summary sheet will be furnished by the Chief Examiner or examination chairman at that particular examination for all examiners involved before the Treasurer will pay the examiner. Examiners will be paid a mileage allowance of $.07 per mile driven. This will also be submitted for payment by the Chief examiner or chairman. If the examiner has received an advancement from the treasurer before the examination, he shall complete an expense summary sheet with the aforementioned policy included and return this summary with any excess funds he has in his possession and return to the Treasurer. If he has spent more than his advancement, he is to show this on the summary sheet as a credit balance. The treasurer will in turn reimburse him accordingly. The treasurer will hold statement of funds due the association on any examiner that does not reimburse the association for any funds he has in excess of his receipts. The Directors and Officers shall be reimbursed for their expenses only, subject to the approval of the President and Vice President and Treasurer at the rate of $8.00 per day meal allowance and lodging per receipt only. No mileage allowance will be allowed; however, reimbursement by receipt for gas, oil, etc., will be allowed. Balance Sheet - See minutes of Annual Meeting on 23 April 1966 APPENDIX D THE ETHICS COMMITTEE REPORT Board of Directo~s Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #6 19 April 1966 The Ethics Committee investigated the rumors of members leaving Treasure Mountain Inn last clinic without paying. In the interim period from the clinic date to when the reports were investigated, the facilities at Park City changed ownership and the charges were apparently dropped. The past owners were unable to produce any names thus far, so the Ethics Committee has dropped this matter. No other major ethics problems are pending at the present time. Respectfully submitted, Keith Lange, Chairman TO: FROM: SUBJECT: APPENDIX E Board of Directors, ISIA Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #7 23 April 1966 Richard L. Voorhees, M.D., Chairman, Publicity Committee Publicity for Year 1965 - 1966 As is customary with most functions, one ends up the end of the year n~having accomplished as much as desired. However, along the publicity lines several attempts were made to get beyond the "mere reporting" that I felt so important when I took over the chairmanship last year. In a letter from Wayne H. Moss at Radio Station KLO in Ogden, December 15, Mr. Moss stated that he would be happy to put on ski news and reports each morning at 7:35 with condensed reports later in the morning. This was sponsored by Perkins Limited and Snow Basin. I called Mr. Moss on two occasions with news that I felt was germaine to the area. I was not able to talk to him on either occasion. I was assured at one time in the first instance that some publicity would be obtained on the subject. However, I must confess that I do not listen to this station and do not know if there has been any feed back in the area. I attempted to get information in the local newspapers with regard to events that I felt were important. In one instance we had a little spread on Ski Mechanics and Biomechanics and another instance in which I suggested an article be done on Ski Instruction in general and then more specifically as it related to the Inter­mountain Area. Nothing was forthcoming unless it was published at a time when I was out of the city and did not read the paper. If not I think this would be an excellent subject for early in the year of this coming fall. I am sure that the general public does not know nearly as much of the background required of a ski instructor and would greatly influence their attitude toward ski instruction in a helpful way. The usual attempts were made to report results of examinations as soon after they were completed as possible. A suggestion in this line would be for the area representative or whoever handles publicity in the local area to be contacted immediately by someone, one of the examiners, immediately after the exam. Inasmuch as I am currently not planning to be in this area the next season I would appreciate the appointment of someone to fill the job. Respectfully submitted, Richard L. Voorhees, M.D. TO: SUBJECT: APPENDIX F Intermountain Ski Instructors Assn Board of Directors Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page ff8 21 April 1966 National Forest Recreation Assn. Activities Report Gentlemen: As you know, I have been representing the Intermountain Ski Instructors in the National Forest Recreation Assn. for several years. I am the only representative of ISlA holding membership in or attending the meetings with the exception of A1f Engen who has attended some meetings. Dues for membership are approximately $15 annually and I have been paying this for ISlA and myself. I would like to hear an expression from the board as to whether or not they wish to continue this membership or withdraw. The association carries considerable weight with the U.S. Forest Service and furnishes a direct link with the top command of that agency for resort operators and recreation interests in general where forest lands are used. Our meetings are frequently attended by the Chief of Forests and always by one or more of his top assistants. Some eight regional foresters are also normally in attendance. In this way we are able to negotiate with the Forest Service proper, without going through a ranger or supervisor. In my opinion membership would be well worth while for ISIA. Last year the NFRA went on record recommending deletion of a clause from the U.S. Forest Service requirements for ski area operators that all instructors in their schools must be certified. This had been pending for some time, but recommendations from the NFRA brought immediate action. With the excellent assistance of Bill Lash I was able to present the instructors' recommendations which received approval of NFRA and subsequently the Forest Service.

Woody Anderson presented some points on not certifying associates. Discussion followed. Motion: That the Secretary and Treasurer be paid $100.00 each (Anderson - Smith) - Carried. The $100 would be paid for their services throughout the year. A letter from Dr. Voorhees was read by President Lorenz to the effect that Voorhees was resigning from the Board due to a move to Seattle in three months.

F. Zeigler, Secretary APPENDIX A - PRESIDENT'S REPORT Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #4 The PSIA convention at Mammoth last year was attended by several ISlA members. The recommendation by PSIA regarding the special use permit was acted on by this Board at Jackson. The Fall Examiners Meeting was very successful and it was suggested by the President that this become an annual affair. An increase membership has put additional work load on Cert Chairman, Sec., and Treasurer and the possibilities of hiring an Executive Secretary should be considered. 146 candidates went through the examination last year, 162 this year. Our relationship with the Forest Service was discussed, i.e., special use permits. 6 regions approved the move; 1 region opposed it; 2 wanted to see it on a trial basis. The Forest Service has dropped the requirement for Certification in the Special Use Permit, the following stipulations applying: that the Instr. Assoc. keep in close contact with each other and that the F.S. keep in closer contact with the Assoc. Our association should be on a more professional basis and make for better growth with the same high standards. This will now allow the Ski Schools to use apprentice people in any number they wish which in turn will help Instructor Associations. One hundred-fifty applications maximum is all a Chief Examiner can handle on a part time basis, that it is difficult to get enough examiners, and that more people in­volved in examinations will mean watering down of standards. There are 650 fully certified in the East and they had 75 this year. I recommend ISlA examine only for fully certified. Discussion on the report followed. APPENDIX B - SECRETARY'S REPORT I feel that there has been a definite disadvantage to my removed geographical location from that of the President and Treasurer. If at all possible it would be advantageous fa them to live in the same metropolis. We have been quite successful in keeping our correspondence up to date. However, there are certainly inefficiencies in the system which should be eliminated this next year. It has been a great help this year to have the clinic committee handle registration. This practice should certainly be persued further. I have started some research on the aspects of hiring an Executive Secretary. I wrote inquiries to both RMSIA and FWSIA. I received only material from RMSIA, the following of which is a summary adopted 4 years ago when RMSIA had a membership of approximately 300: - Salary: $175.00 per month and will probably increase; Functions: handles all administrative work, reproduction of mailing, cards, banking, treasuring, etc.; RMSIA equipment - electric typewriter, photocopy machine, addressorett, electric mimeograph, metal files. APPENDIX C - TREASURERS REPORT Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #5 4-15-66 REVISION TO THE PRESENT TREASURY POLICY THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN JACKSON, WYOMING - 10-2-65. I have, at this time, found that the present treasury policy as set up by me at the subject meeting not to be an effective trouble free system for payment of our representatives in the Association's work. Therefore, I am requesting a reV1S1on. This revision I have been using since 28 February 1966 whereon I obtained the approval from the executive committee quorum at Solitude Ski resort examination. As the policy reads in the 2 October 1965 minutes of that Board of Directors meeting, I am revision: Examiners shall be paid the amount of $25.00 per day fee for a day of examination. They shall also be reimbursed for their meals at a flat rate of $8.00 per day. No receipts are necessary. Examiners will also be reimbursed for their lodging expense by receipt only. An expense summary sheet will be furnished by the Chief Examiner or examination chairman at that particular examination for all examiners involved before the Treasurer will pay the examiner. Examiners will be paid a mileage allowance of $.07 per mile driven. This will also be submitted for payment by the Chief examiner or chairman. If the examiner has received an advancement from the treasurer before the examination, he shall complete an expense summary sheet with the aforementioned policy included and return this summary with any excess funds he has in his possession and return to the Treasurer. If he has spent more than his advancement, he is to show this on the summary sheet as a credit balance. The treasurer will in turn reimburse him accordingly. The treasurer will hold statement of funds due the association on any examiner that does not reimburse the association for any funds he has in excess of his receipts. The Directors and Officers shall be reimbursed for their expenses only, subject to the approval of the President and Vice President and Treasurer at the rate of $8.00 per day meal allowance and lodging per receipt only. No mileage allowance will be allowed; however, reimbursement by receipt for gas, oil, etc., will be allowed. Balance Sheet - See minutes of Annual Meeting on 23 April 1966 APPENDIX D THE ETHICS COMMITTEE REPORT Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page 116 19 April 1966 The Ethics Committee investigated the rumors of members leaving Treasure Mountain Inn last clinic without paying. In the interim period from the clinic date to when the reports were investigated, the facilities at Park City changed ownership and the charges were apparently dropped. The past owners were unable to produce any names thus far, so the Ethics Committee has dropped this matter. No other major ethics problems are pending at the present time. Respectfully submitted, Keith Lange, Chairman TO: FROM: SUBJECT: APPENDIX E Board of Directors, ISIA Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #7 23 April 1966 Richard L. Voorhees, M.D., Chairman, Publicity Committee Publicity for Year 1965 - 1966 As is customary with most functions, one ends up the end of the year nd having accomplished as much as desired. However, along the publicity lines several attempts were made to get beyond the "mere reporting" that I felt so important when I took over the chairmanship last year. In a letter from Wayne H. Moss at Radio Station KLO in Ogden, December 15, Mr. Moss stated that he would be happy to put on ski news and reports each morning at 7:35 with condensed reports later in the morning. This was sponsored by Perkins Limited and Snow Basin. I called Mr. Moss on two occasions with news that I felt was germaine to the area. I was not able to talk to him on either occasion. I was assured at one time in the first instance that some publicity would be obtained on the subject. However, I must confess that I do not listen to this station and do not know if there has been any feed back in the area. I attempted to get information in the local newspapers with regard to events that I felt were important. In one instance we had a little spread on Ski Mechanics and Biomechanics and another instance in which I suggested an article be done on Ski Instruction in general and then more specifically as it related to the Inter­mountain Area. Nothing was forthcoming unless it was published at a time when I was out of the city and did not read the paper. If not I think this would be an excellent subject for early in the year of this coming fall. I am sure that the general public does not know nearly as much of the background required of a ski instructor and would greatly influence their attitude toward ski instruction in a helpful way. The usual attempts were made to report results of examinations as soon after they were completed as possible. A suggestion in this line would be for the area representative or whoever handles publicity in the local area to be contacted immediately by someone, one of the examiners, immediately after the exam. Inasmuch as I am currently not planning to be in this area the next season I would appreciate the appointment of someone to fill the job. Respectfully submitted, Richard L. Voorhees, M.D. TO: SUBJECT: APPENDIX F Intermountain Ski Instructors Assn Board of Directors Board of Directors Meeting 21 April 1966 Page #8 21 April 1966 National Forest Recreation Assn. Activities Report Gentlemen: As you know, I have been representing the Intermountain Ski Instructors -- in the National Forest Recreation Assn. for several years. I am the only representative of ISlA holding membership in or attending the meetings with the exception of Alf Engen who has attended some meetings. Dues for membership are approximately $15 annually and I have been paying this for ISlA and myself. I would like to hear an expression from the board as to whether or not they wish to continue this membership or withdraw. The association carries considerable weight with the U.S. Forest Service and furnishes a direct link with the top command of that agency for resort operators and recreation interests in general where forest lands are used. Our meetings are frequently attended by the Chief of Forests and always by one or more of his top assistants. Some eight regional foresters are also normally in attendance. In this way we are able to negotiate with the Forest Service proper, without going through a ranger or supervisor. In my opinion membership would be well worth while for ISIA. Last year the NFRA went on record recommending deletion of a clause from the U.S. Forest Service requirements for ski area operators that all instructors in their schools must be certified. This had been pending for some time, but recommendations from the NFRA brought immediate action. With the excellent assistance of Bill Lash I was able to present the instructors' recommendations which received approval of NFRA and subsequently the Forest Service.

To provide contact between candidates and the association. 4. To circulate information to amateur teachers. 5.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING 8 October 1966 President's Report At the P.S.I.A. Sun Valley convention, the newly formed Division Officers Committee met formally for the first time this year. All eight division presidents or chief examiners agreed that the main purpose of the committee was to allow for exchange of ideas on administrative policies, at a division level. Since each division has the same basic problems created by rapid growth of membership, each will benefit by the others experience. This committee will also make recommendations to P.S.I.A. and receive recommendations from P.S.I.A. This committee along with the certification committee will give divisions more adequate representation to P.S.I.A. and be able to maintain better communication. I observed, in this meeting, that other divisions in some respects are more progressive than we, in others they are behind us; but all are working toward the same goal. That goal is to preserve unity in the division, to maintain a good certification program and to stay solvent while attempting the first two. The only way this can be achieved is to support P.S.I.A. with our membership, our ideas and representatives to support our ideas. We, as a division, should avoid provincialism and accept the future, as well as help guide the future of organized ski instructors. Discussion during the meeting covered such items as one level certification, foreign instructor relations, change of Forest Service certification requirement, finances-dues, fees, fines, etc., division responsibility to Inter-ski. Willy Schaeffler (chairman of Interski 1968) reported to the committee on the tremendous task ahead and asked division cooperation in making it successful. Further information on this will be forthcoming as it is received from Interski Planning Committee. I.S.I.A. should be ready to cooperate in any way possible. The division officers also agreed that the P.S.I.A. technical coordinating committee is correctly composed of a group of specialists. However, they recommended that each division send a technical representative to meet with the P.S.I.A. committee for the purpose of accurate, concise dissemination of technical information not possible by any other media. I recommend that I.S.I.A appoint a technical coordinating committee for this purpose. In the past, the certification committee has been known as the technical committee. In the future, this job can be better accomplished by another committee. Each committee, Certification and Technical, will be more than busy if they are to function correctly. I also recommend that an ISlA demonstration team be selected. Purpose of the team: to demonstrate as nearly as possible perfect interpretation of the American Ski Technique final forms. The team will be utilized at the Annual Spring Clinic, examiners clinic, and regional clinics where ever possible. This team also to be ready for Interski demonstrations, if called for. As directors and committee chairmen, we must avoid petty differences and act as a mature and progressive team. We should take advantage of other division's experiences. We should utilize the vast amounts of technical information available from PSIA. This information can be conveyed to the members by the joint efforts of the technical, clinic, and certification committees, and the demonstration team. The result will be a more uniformly informed membership. If this is accomplished, the weakest area of ISlA operations will be stronger. The entire association should be better unified. Respectfully submitted, Lou Lorenz, President 8 October 1966 APPENDIX B CHIEF EXAMINER & V. P.'S REPORT The P.S.I.A. portion is primarily the same as the President's so I will report that I have been in contact with the Exec. Comma during the summer months by phone and made a trip to the Salt Lake City Area. Plans for the Examiner Clinic are being formulated as well as an agenda. Most important is the grading system - to bring the Examiners closer together on what to look for, and how to score. The 1st and 2nd of October I attended the fall seminar at Mt. Hood, Oregon put on by the P.N.S.I.A. The most significant thing I saw was the use of the Seven Basic Principles used on the score card to grade by. That is - a certain number of the principles are used in each maneuver. If a candidate violates these it is easier to look for the mistakes thinking of Basic Principles. On the hill, mistakes as well as having the latest definitions in print should help the Embryo examiner as well as the Veteran. Respectfully submitted, Don Rhinehart APPENDIX C TREASURER'S REPORT I respectfully submit my report as written by our auditor in his investigation of our records for this 65-66 fiscal y
