Kimberly K2 Coach and father David Wilson is the grand prize winner in the BC Alpine 2010 GMC Raffle!
One of the friendly neighbors from our building came over to pull the winning ticket and afterwards Bruce and I called Dave up to tell him the good news. After the typical "Are you joking" (which always seems to be the first comment made when people win a prize) Dave went on to exclaim "I’ve never won anything in my life.. this is really something!"
The call came as a double dose of good news to the Wilson family as our Athletic Director Gordie Bowles also jumped in to let the Wilsons know that their son Aidan Wilson made the cut for the Whistler Cup!
After a phone call like that, there is likely not a more celebratory household in this province today.
Congratulations Dave and Aidan from all of us at BC Alpine, and thank you for supporting youth ski racing opportunities throughout the province!

Two early bird prizes were up for grabs today in our Early Bird draw.
The first ticket drawn was for a Miele Vacuum cleaner (MSRP $750) which belonged to Katsuhiko Sato of Richmond. Katsuhiko’s son is a member of the Cypress Ski Club’s Rio Tinto Alcan NGSL program. This was the only ticket that he purchased from his son’s ticket allocation and I’m sure he’s happy he did.
The second draw netted Mr Dean Wagner of Prince Rupert a Descente BC Ski Team Jacket and Pants, also valued at $750. Dean was lucky enough to pick up his winning ticket from a local ski racer selling them at a conference at Shames Mountain.
Both winner’s tickets will be re-entered into the grand prize draw which gives them both the chance to still win a fantastic 2010 GMC Terrain on March 19th.. do you have your ticket yet?

The GMC Canadian Championships is the show case event for Junior and Senior level athletes from across Canada. The participants compete, not only against their peers, but also against members of the Canadian Alpine Ski Team (CAST). The GMC Canadian Championship event is made up of competitions from all five alpine disciplines (DH, SG, GS, SC and SL) and a Provincial Dual Race.
In 2010 the GMC Canadian Championships will be held at the beautiful Nakiska Ski resort in Kananaskis country, Alberta. Alpine Canada Alpin and the Nakiska Ski Resort will host the best Canadian Alpine athletes in all alpine disciplines (DH, SG, GS, SL, and SC). The organizing committee is working toward building a team of volunteers to execute top level events for our Canadian athletes. If you are interested in volunteering for this great event please sign up by visiting www.canski.org and our volunteer sign-up page at http://canski.org/canadian-alpine-races.
We look forward to seeing you on the slopes.
