Forest Service UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOREST SERVICE WASATCH NATIONAL FOREST 430 SOUTH 4TH EAST SALT LAKE CITY 11, UTAH Mr. Lou Lorenz, Chairman Certification Committee, I.S.I.A. 2010 West North Temple Salt Lake City, Utah D'car Lou: IN REPLY REFER TO- 2340 January 7, 1964 Following is a report of the meeting of December 20, 1963 at the Forest Supervisor1s Office regarding certification and registration of Brighton Ski School Instructors. This constitutes our understanding of the major items discussed and the decisions reached. The meeting was attended by yourself, Mr. K. Smith, Director of the Brighton Ski School, Mr. A1f Engen, Director of the Engen Ski School at Alta, Mr. Zane Doyle, representing Doyle and Jensen, area operators at Brighton, Mr. Charles H. Morton and Mr. Joe Quinney of Salt Lake Winter Sports, area operators at Alta, Forest Super­visor Koziol and Gerald Horton of the Wasatch National Forest. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the I.S.I.A. registration pol icy as it app1 ies to the Brighton Ski School and the impact this pol icy has on the avai1abi1 ity of ski instruction for the pub1 ic at Brighton. The general pol icy on registration is understood to be that those people who intend to teach but who do not have the qual ifications for examination or who want to teach before they are examined may do so by applying for registration with I.S.I.A. They would accompany their app1 ication with the required fees and required first aid evidence and could then teach before they were examined. This pol icy is in effect for every ski school except Brighton. A separate pol icy was made for Brighton which requires their people to be examined before their registration is accepted. The exception for Brighton was made because of the past record of that school in the use of temporar i es and un­certified instructors. Applications for registration from the Brighton Ski School which were sub­mitted just before the ho1 idays were not accepted. This left the Brighton Ski School insufficient instructors to accommodate the expected ho1 iday business and they would have to turn away persons desiring ski instruction. Mr. Smith stated that he was short of instructors because of normal attri­tion and the opening of new ski schools. Also, that his pattern of use is - .-..- 2 heavy on weekends and very 1 ight on week days which makes it very dif­ficult to recruit and hold full-time certified instructors. The performance of the Brighton Ski School was discussed. [t was un­doubtedly poor in the past but it has improved greatly in the past two years. The percentage of candidates passing the examination has been satisfactory in that time and there has been no unauthorized use of in­structors. After considerable discussion it was the Forest Supervisor's decision that the special registration pol icy for the Brighton Ski School was discrimina­tory and not in the publ ic interest. This is because of the shortage of instructors due to opening of two new ski schools in the general area, the heavy weekend - 1 ight week day pattern of use at Brighton, the improvement in the performance of the Brighton Ski School in the recent past and the need for sufficient instructors to meet the publ ic demand for instruction at the Brighton Ski School. The Director of the Brighton Ski School was directed to enter his appl i­cants in a first aid course to get them qual ified for registration. He was then to file applications for registration for these people with I.S.I.A. and the Forest Service would consider all who were qual ified under the general registration pol icy as registered and they could then teach at the Brighton Ski School which operates on National Forest land under Special Use Permit. 'f ,. The above is the Wasatch National Forest's posi~ion in this matter. Your certification committee is under no obI igation to agree with it, of course; however, we feel the need for the special restriction on the Brighton Ski School could be reconsidered and removed. In notifying you of the meeting, we thought that city mail posted on Decem­ber 18 would be del ivered on December 19. However, it was not and the notice reached you late. Also, there was the necessity of considering the situation before the hoI iday season. We appreciate your coming down to the meeting and hope that this situation with the Brighton Ski School can be resolved. Sincerely yours, F. C.

These people have organized groups who pay for instruction and are taught skiing in areas which already have a competent and qualified ski school. On occasions it has been reported that these groups are under the guise of racing schools, when in fact these students are~ or should be receiving basic fundamentals of skiing, It seems every year we have reports of unauthorized ski teaching in this area. I feel the most effective way of protecting the public from this type of ski instruction is to inform the public that certified instruc­tion is the confident way to learn skiing. If you would all please help in this matter> I feel it will help the public in having them seek certified instruction as well as increase your ski school's business. Please. feel free to contact me if you have any problems in this vein or any others the association may be of help with. ~cere1Y~ wo~rson, President.

At their request. Mr. Gerald Horton of your office was present at this meeting. It was agreed, in this joint connnittee meeting, that the certification connnittee has been discriminatory in its special registration policy for the Brighton Ski School. In order to correct this situation. the certification connnittee will change its general policy as fo1lows~ Beginning February 1, 1964, the I.SoIoAo will accept as registrants, only those candidates who have been examined at a regularly scheduled certification examination, failed to meet the I.S.I.Ao standards for Associate Instructor and are recommended by the Board of Examiners for registered status. The policy will apply to all ski schools in I.S.I.Ao In reference to the applications for registration received from the Brighton Ski School prior to February l~ 1964, the I.S.IoA. certification connnittee will acknowledge receipt of the forms and will administrate them as required, how­ever 9 the connnittee will not assume any responsibility for their qualifications nor condone their actual teaching.

SUBJECT: Spring Clinic and Convention Arrangements At a recent executive committee meeting of the I.S.I.A. the date for our annual Spring Clinic and convention was set for April 17, 18 and 19, 1964, at Alta with convention headquarters being at the Peruvian Lodge in Alta, Utah. The Executive Committee also felt that the I.S.I.A. in general and the I.S.I.A. convention in particular were not doing a great deal to weld the ski school directors and ski instructors, as individuals, into the professional group it was intended to be. Furthermore, the Ski School Directors have not been as active in the past few years in the operation of the I.S.I.A, as the committee feels necessary for an efficient ski instructor's organization. We feel the great success of Professional Ski Instructor's of America throughout the United States is due to the fact that almost every member of their Board of Directors is a ski school director and can work on problems of management as well as those of the individual ski instructor. Many of the problems that the I.S.I.A. faces each year should be recon­ciled at the ski school level. With this in mind, the Executive Committee recommended that I appoint a clinic committee compoased of ski school directors to conduct the annual Spring Clinic. Therefore, the following ski school direc­tors are hereby appointed to the Clinic Committee: Alf Engen, Alta M. Earl Miller, Ogden Bill Ashley, Jackson Sigi Eng1, Sun Valley Jim McConkey, Treasure Mountains, Park City I would like to call a meeting of this group for 8:00 p.m. on March 16, 1964 at the Hotel Ben Lomond in Ogden, Utah for the purpose of outlining the events of the clinic and to prepare the agenda for the meeting. All Ski School Directors are encouraged to attend this meeting or send in ideas and suggestions on the enclosed return post card. Would you also indicate on the return post card if you plan to attend the Ogden meeting.

Spring Clinic, Let me inform you that the LSoLAo9 has already arranged an informal session of ski school directors designed to sit down and get acquainted with one another and discuss any problems they see fit. The agenda for this meeting is not set and will not in any way resemble Mr, Smith's meeting, Mr, Smith was a member of the ISIA for approximately 10 years and on the BoOoDo of this organization for over 9 years, It is unfortunate that his efforts at that time were not directed to building the organization rather than tearing it down, Mr. Smith is not a member of the ISlA and will not make any decisions or set agendas for meetings called by the ISlA, He may attend the meeting (other than the general membership meeting) as we have invited the general public to attend, The Ski School Directors present at the meeting may invite Mr. Smith to their informal session as they may want to invite the United States Forest Service or anyone else, I t will not be a "closed sessimL" Your B,O.D. has worked very hard in the past several years to build and strengthen an organization composed of certified ski teachers which includes ski school directors, certified ski teachers 9 and associate ski teachers. Mr. Smith would have a separate organization for ski school direct.ors 9 when the fact is that the ski school directors should take a more active part in the operation of this organization. This years clinic committee composed of Adrien Segl" chairman, Dave Parkinson" Gene Huber and Mrs, Sue Petersen have arranged an excellent clinic and convention for us and I would urge all of you to attend and bring your friends who are also interested in the ski teaching profession, P.S.

At least for this first timeo ThErE: was too much travel involved to attend both meetings. Mr. Earl Miller of Snow Basin has talked with Woody Anderson about this Directors meeting~ and Woody assured him that it would not conflict, and that we could meet during that time~ in closed session. So, make it a point to attend, and then we can go over the subjects that I outlined in my letter of February 25. SincerelY9 J, K.

Box 2203 Salt Lake City., Utah 84110 June 24, 1964 TO: Intermountain Ski Area Operators and Ski School Directors FROM; Zane Doyle, Brighton Ski Area Operator & Al Hansen, ISA Executive Dirftr. At the recent ConTention of the Intermountain Ski Association, Zane Doyle and Al Hansen were named a committee of two to investigate the possibilities of securing the cooperation of Intermountain Ski Area Operators and Ski Sch.ol Directors in the following program of benefits for Intermountain members. 1. A one-time reduction of 50¢ in the cost of a day pass from all Inter­mountain Ski Areas. 2. A one-time reduction of 11.00 in the cost of one group ski lesson from all Intermountain Ski Schools. The reasons for participation in the above outlined program are many. but most importantly, it offers ski areas and ski schools the opportunity to be exposed to many new people from allover the Division. Once exposed, these people then become potential repeat customers at regular prices. At the same time. the Intermountain Ski Association will realize a broader membership among recreational skiers, thus exposing many new people to organized skiing. Precedent for such a program has already been established in the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association and tbe Far West Ski Association. Similiar programs are set for the Northern Rocky Mountain Ski Association, the dentral Ski Association and the Pacific Northwest Ski Association for next year. The Intermountain Ski Association's responsibilities under the program would be as follows: . 1. Preparation and distribution of satisfactory coupon books to imple­ment the program. 2. Preparation of suitable posters for display in the ski areas, describing the program. 3. Initiation of a complete public relations program making the skiers of the region aware of the program and the cooperation the ski area operators and ski school directors are providing organized skiing. To date the Alta, Beaver Mountain,Brighton, Park City and Snow Basin ski areas and the Brighton Ski School have agreed in principle with the provisions of the program.. Mr. Doyle will be contacting the ski area operators and Mr. Hansen will be contacting the ski school dir~ct()rs within the next few days. Will you please consider the program carefully and be prepared to discuss it with them when they call. Thank you very much.

CERTlflED SKI TEACHER INTERl\fOUNT AIN SKI ASSOCIATION To: From: Subject: INTERMOUNTAIN SKI INSTRUCTORS ASSOCIATION Office of the President 945 East First South Salt Lake City, Utah August 7, 1964 ISlA Members, Ski School Directors, Board of Directors, ISlA Dick Voorhees, President, ISlA Executive Committee Meeting, ISlA Thursday, July 30, 1964, a meeting of the Executive Committee of ISlA was held for the purpose of discussing events which have transpired since the ISlA Annual clinic, and the official schedule of events for the remainder of the summer and fall. It will be recalled that a meeting of Ski School Directors had been held as part of the April Spring Clinic. At that time a second meeting was anticipated in mid August. At the ISA Board of Directors Meeting in Jackson, it was learned that the Area Operators anticipated a similar meeting. It was suggested by John Herbert, U. S. Forest Service, that the two groups meet together to discuss mutual problems. Our original meeting was tentatively scheduled for Burley, Idaho, August 15. In deference to the Area Operators and Forest Service, a second decision was made to hold the meeting in Sun Valley, August 22, 1964. We were recently advised, how­ever, that the Area Operators will be unable to attend the Sun Valley Meeting. In a poll this last week by phone of Ski School Directors, it also was learned that many would not be able to get away from their summer activities in August. In addition, the ISlA Board of Directors has its regular meeting scheduled in the fall, likely to be held at Jackson Hole. Economy of travel and time stresses the need to combine the ISlA Board of Directors meeting with the Ski School Directors meeting. There will, therefore, not be a Ski School Directors meeting at Sun Valley, August 22, The date of the fall (BOD) meeting will be announced at a later date. Reference is made to a letter from past president, Woody Anderson, dated April 2, 1964, clarifying ISlA policy with regard to official announcements of ISlA function. It should be further emphasized that this policy is still in effect, and your Board of Directors extends you an apology for the untimely and erratic announce­ment by the Intermountain Ski Association concerning the Sun Valley meeting. Let me again invite the expressed opinions of all members, whether or not it be at the official meetings or Board of Directors meetings. Your attendance is specif­ically requested. Remember, this is your organization. ------------ -_._----- ---- Vc~;(~ R. L. Voorhees, M.D. President, ISlA I CELrl.'IFIU) S1--:.1 TEACHER 1 ;,\;TLRl\IOUNTAIN INTERMOUNTAIN SKI INSTRUCTORS ASSOCIATION - Ski ,\SSOCTATION ------~--- August 18, 1964 TO: Intermountain Ski Instructors Association Attention: Ski School Directors As of this date it has come to my attention that Mr. Albert S. Hansen has contacted you by letter with regard to the proposed one-time dis­count in the cost of the group lesson to the extent of $1.00. Your President has talked with Mr. Hansen on two occasions with regard to this, and was unable to obtain any evidence as of the last discussion as to whether or not he had in fact talked with any Ski School Directors personally. Approximately three weeks ago, I called a number of Ski School Directors with regard to their feelings on this matter, and it was grossly evident that they had not been contacted by Mr. Hansen with regard to the programo Those with whom I discussed the situa-tion in some detail, felt that considerable investigation would have to be undertaken, especially in the populous areas, as to what this would mean to the average ski school. In general the plan was looked upon with disfavor. Please be advised that this recent questionnaire sent out by Mr. Hansen, with regard to your statement as to whether or not you are in favor of the one dollar reduction does not have the sanction of the ISlA, and that there is no general agreement among all those Ski School Directors contacted by me with regard to this program. An action of this type involves Ski School Directors who pay their employees on a per capita basis, and in a populous area might force a hardship on these Ski School Directors. It is therefore felt that this action must be considered by all of us together in order that we do not work a hardship on some individuals. Inasmuch as this has been brewing since early spring, and nothing has been done to date, it is my feeling that we should await group action at the next ISlA Board Meeting in September.

A brief attempt v •• made to explain this to ISIA _mbers and Ski School Directors by v.y of correspondence dated _______ ,. dt • recent meetins, Ausuat 22, 1964, ISIA was quite aeverely criticized fAX-I" ~~ as beinl an intermediary betveen lSA and Ski School Directora with reg.rd to this policy. It il felt that explanation of our feelings on this matter is critical to all members of ISIA. First of all, let it be understood that by its very nature ISlA is intereated in doinl whatever it can for the recreation.l sider. Then has been no attempt on the part of .. y officials of ISlA to therefore put down "the proposal of ISA". ISIA i. officially involved in this action because ski school director. are members of ISIA, and the Ski Sehool Director'a Committee was formed as part of ISIA structun. As I indicated in previous correapondence, it became obvious th.t officiala of ISA, between the time of the Jacksonmeetinl in April .nd the tima Ski School Directors were circularized on voting for such a proposal, had made DO 81ncere attempt to explain to Ski School Directors what this proposal vas about. As President I contacted numerous Ski S,cUool Directors and had them .p­proachedby other individuals outside the Salt Lake Are. who do not understand the n.ture of the proposal. Mr. Hanlen i. a paid official of ISA and as .ueh, it should have been his responaibility to at leaat have discussed any proposal such as this in sone detail_ ~dt:1 the. indivi6uals involved prior to Gulinittinr, it to n vote, as \Jas done.

I w':::u1d like to be active in the organization and also it will be the only way to keep current with the ski teaching business. I don't know if the uniform transfer application has been adopted as was discussed at the P.S.I.A. meeting. If it has, this is what I need. If not. a letter concerning my status in I.S.I.A. is needed. I would appreciate it very much if you would please send this letter to: Ann Polk, P.N.S.I.A., P.O. Box 4)4, Yakima, Washington. I understand the problems you were having with Solitude have all been settled. I'm very glad to hear this. Bill has probably told you that Jim Whittaker and I are running a school out of Recreational Equipment Inc. plus the area school at Hyak. I'm quickly becoming familiar with the problems of running a ski school. which I'm sure you know all about. Things will turn out all right, I hope. We have a few students enrolled already. Bill sent some brochures on your instructor training program. I was very impressed by it. I am sure a similar program would go over well here in Seattle. I hope you have a successful ski season this year. Give my best regards to Betty and the children. RN:sn Yours truly.

Your cooperation in this capacity will increase the effectiveness of the program and will simplify its administration. If you will study the "Plan for Certification of Ski Teachers by the Intermountain Ski Instruc­tors Association" so that you are able to answer questions concerning all aspects of certification, you will be an invaluable factor in the function of the entire certification program. As Area Certification Representative, the committee will expect you to: 1. Make available ISlA plan for certification, application for examination blanks, and be able to answer candidates questions about certification and examination. 2. Be in direct contact with candidates and committee chairman in regard to scheduling of examinations. 3. Make local plans for exam if one is scheduled in your area, arrange for lifts, examiner's lodging, meeting places, slalom poles, etc. 4. Assist committee chairman in any local certification problems. Enclosed are application for exam blanks, and ISlA plans for certification for dis­tribution to interested candidates. If you need more, let us know. Area Representatives: Ed Morris K.

CERTIfIED SKI TEACHER INTI:ItMOUNTAIN SKI ASSOCIA nON INTERM,O'UNTAIN SKI INSTRUCTORS ASSOCIATION December 20, 1964 FROM: Richard L. Voorhees, M.D., President, ISlA TO: ISlA Ski School Directors The end of 1964 is rapidly approaching, and with the advent of 1965 an important event is occurring in the field of ski instruction. I am sure you are all aware that the VII International Ski School Congress is being held at Badgestein, Austria, from January 8 to 14. Certainly many important decisions with regard to ski instruc­tion will be made at the Congress, and we should all follow with keen interest the proceedings as they are reported. The Demonstration Team, as chosen at the PSIA Convention in Aspen last year, represents virtually every division ski instructor group in the United States. I think it is extremely important at this time that all Ski School Directors pause for a moment to realize what ISlA and PSIA have actually done for member ski schools. As we all know, the responsibility of training ski instructors is ideally that of each ski school director. Yet the discharge of this responsibility often comes at the busiest time of the year, and a complete training program becomes essentially im­possible due to the pressure of business. ISlA, through clinics and examinations, has largely taken over this responsibility. Yet we often forget that ISlA is a vol­untary organization, with marginal finances. The efforts of ISlA and PSIA to set and maintain standards for ski instruction that will protect the skiing public certainly beftefit directly each ski school director. This past year two ski schools made contributions to ISlA in recognition of the ben­efit they received from the organization. This year I think our obligation is two fold. First, we must realize that the Demonstration TeilJT1, while obtaining some fin­ances in terms of equipment and transportation from the Hart Ski Company and Lufthansa Air Lines, must essentially pay its own way. I think it is enough that these people are asked to leave their area at a time when the business pressure is really on. A contribution from each of you would certainly help extend this arm of your ski school, for you are the one who will benefit. In addition, ISlA is part and parcel of this picture, and certainly some help from each of you, no matter how small, would greatly facilitate the business of the Association. I am well aware that this is a contri­bution time, but I ask you not to neglect your own organizations. Your checks may be sent to the Secretary of each association. !J Richard L. Voorhees, M.D. President, ISlA RLV: 1p -------~~--
