PLC THANKS YOU!

The Private Lesson Coordinator Team at the PLC wants to express gratitude to all instructors.

It was a pleasure seeing you throughout the season. We truly appreciated your stories and jokes and enjoyed assisting you with your guests and schedules.

We're thankful for your efforts in checking your schedules and promptly letting us know when there were any errors with your clients' bookings. As more tasks shift to the web, it's nice to still maintain that personal touch.

This past season, we were able to begin booking private lesson requests as early as August 15, and we hope to continue supporting you in this way next season, starting in August.

Have a Marvelous Summer 🙂

Brandon, Joy, Juli, Michelle, Rebecca

SAFETY ZONE

Spring Skiing & Riding

Here are some safety tips when working in warmer weather:

  • Treat Every Run Like New – Stop and reassess conditions before every run. 
  • Get Technical – Be deliberate with your turns and keep your feet strong and equally weighted
  • Watch Your Edges and Ride Mellow – Keep your weight centered when riding slush and flex your core to help your balance.
  • Speaking of edges, tune up your equipment. Your skis and boards are the tools you need to do your job well, so take care of them. 
  • You’ve heard this one before – Stay hydrated! Higher temps and working with heavier snow lead to dehydration.
  • Maintain a bubble – Keep yourself safe by avoiding popular egress routes, make sure you have an “out,” and watch out for each other.

Learn more about spring skiing and riding from Vail Resorts Employee Safety. Finish strong!
