The United States Ski & Snowboard Club Volunteer membership is intended for Board of Directors, parents, and club volunteers who take up leadership roles in United States Ski & Snowboard clubs, divisions, regions, competitions, and club training sessions. Members also include alumni who have been awarded USSC honorary memberships. US Ski and Snowboard Clubs are nonprofit organizations that rely on contributions from individuals like you to remain active and provide services to their members. The board of directors determines how membership funds are spent and can choose to fund any number of programs at its discretion. Some examples of US Ski and Snowboard Club activities include funding national teams, organizing events such as the National Championships and Youth Olympics, and providing health insurance for full-time athletes. In addition to these core functions, many US Ski and Snowboard Clubs also offer additional programs designed specifically for young people. These programs may include ski camps, snowboarding camps, travel teams, and junior development programs. The board of directors decides what programs it will fund and how those programs will be run. For example, a board might decide to hire a coach for a youth team or send participants on group trips. Membership in the United States Ski and Snowboard Club allows individuals to participate in these programs. As a member of the board of directors, you would be invited to attend meetings and vote on any major policies implemented by the club.
