Whistler Cup 2017 needs VOLUNTEERS for all the FUN jobs, on and off hill!

by Kathy Stahr | Apr 8, 2017 | Member News

What a great way to wrap up a stellar season in Whistler! There is nothing quite like the energy and excitement of this colourful, sensational, international ski racing event. And this year, to celebrate the 25th anniversary, organizers have added an extra day and an alpine team competition! We are excited to welcome athletes, coaches and families from 19 countries around the world, April 13th to 16th.

The Mackenzie Investments Whistler Cup has a ton loyal volunteers who wouldn't miss it for the world – it takes over 300 from start to finish – but there are still lots of great jobs available, with opportunities to stay warm and dry…or get super close to the action…your choice.

Do any of these interest you?

Off-hill roles:

racer breakfast buffet (indoors up on the mountain)
merchandise sales in the village
race office admin work

On-hill roles:

manual timer
bib collector
scoreboard
assistant starter
runner
gate judge
dye guy
course worker

Of course delicious lunches are available every day and that coveted Whistler Cup jacket is yours if you volunteer for 3 days on the hill or 4 days off the hill (if you sign up before April 10th, or as quantities last).

For more information or to sign up please contact Abbie Milavsky at abbie.milavsky@gmail.com
