Greetings SBSEF,

The heat of summer is here, and while SBSEF athletes are currently training both on and off the snow, it is the off-season.  However, the offseason does not equal downtime for much of the team. We have (mostly) completed our registration for the 24-25 season, and we are full.  Interest and demand in the team has never been higher, and resource management is a constant focus of the team in an era where being “full” is now expected.

July 1st marked the beginning of our fiscal year as well.  Team administration and the Board of Directors use this time of year to get organized for the coming season and strategize with our partners, sponsors, and community for the new season.  We are nearing completion of our new gym facility and office space at 3690 E. Fort Union Blvd, Suite 102. just west of the Porcupine Restaurant.  The facility is already being used! (see Freeride photo below)

Meanwhile, at Snowbird construction the new lift, snow making, and more are moving forward every day.  It is with great anticipation that we look forward to what will be a “new look” for Gad Valley, with significant upgrades and improvements.  Later this month it will likely be announced that the 2034 Winter Olympic Games will once again be in Utah, and the countdown begins.  Significant investments will be made here in our community in advance of the Olympics, and dreams of Olympic proportions will serve as a guide for the next decade.

I am also attaching a link to the 2023-24 SBSEF Annual Report (click here).  This document is now an annual undertaking that highlights the happenings of the team and outlines what to expect in the upcoming season.

After two years of well above-average snowfall, we are all in eager and curious anticipation of what the 2024-25 season will bring.  The answer?  Who knows!  But, it will surely include opportunities, challenges, successes, and disappointments.  It will be fun, we will grow, and we will do it as a team.

Work hard.  Dream Big.

Best,
Bridger Call
SBSEF Executive Director
