Alumni Overview

The 3 Pillars of the Snowbird Alumni

Stage 1. Alumni Network (for former SBSEF athletes and coaches)

In order to build a lasting and transferable Alumni Organization we must first create a committed Alumni Network, that is based on integrity and timeless principals, this Network will serve multiple purposes. The Alumni Network's deepest and greatest value are the individuals themselves. Individuals in the Alumni Network will have the choice to support the SBSEF through a combination of donating their, Time, Ideas, Extended Relationships, Resources and or Financial Contributions. (*Note: Honorary SBA members TBD by SBA)

  1. For the Alumni specifically, the SBA will have the benefits of both Social Network and a Business Network. It will operate through the guidance of group elected officials and committee positions that are transferable to the next generation of Alumni.
  2. Create a Diverse Professional Network for young adults to find Guidance, Mentors, and New Opportunities. As the next generation of Alumni begin their transition from racing towards what is next for them. This Alumni Network will be instrumental in opening doors for young people.
  3. Creating added value for the SBSEF. When a parent is considering which program to put their child into and thinking about their future, knowing that their is a strong group of professionals that are SBSEF Alumni who want to help open career doors for their child and be there for advice on different career paths, this becomes a selling point for SBSEF.

Stage 2. Fund Raising (for the SBSEF)

The SBA will co-ordinate efforts with the SBSEF in order to create Fund-raising Events that will contribute to both athletes individually and the Team as a whole. The SBA officials and committee will work to support SBSEF by utilizing the Alumni Network.

Stage 3. Mentorships (for the athletes)

As athletes lives transition from ski racing the principles each athlete learns through the SBSEF program and also through the discipline of ski racing helps to build young-adults with great potential. The Goal of the SBA is to provide potential with opportunity. Through having a designated list of Professionals (Alumni volunteers) in every possible career path with an open-door policy to SBSEF athletes and their parents we hope to provide a bridge and some real world guidance to wherever they are going next.
