2 Skier / Snowboarder Responsibility Code Snowsports can be enjoyed in many ways. At ski areas you may see people using alpine, snowboard, telemark, cross country and other specialized ski equipment, such as that used by disabled or other skiers. Regardless of how you decide to enjoy the slopes, always show courtesy to others and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce. Observe the code listed below and share with other skiers the responsibility for a great skiing experience. Always stay in control. People ahead of you have the right of way. Stop in a safe place for you and others. Whenever starting downhill or merging, look uphill and yield. Use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.

5 PARENT PERMISSION FORM RHS SKI & SNOWBOARD CLUB This notice is to acquaint you with the plans for this winters activities in the RHS Ski & Snowboard Club. This year The City of Rockville Recreation & Parks Department will run ski club as a school and community partnership. To accomplish these goals we must also rely on the support and cooperation of each member and their parent / guardian. We welcome any constructive suggestions regarding the club. If you have any questions please contact me at or e mail: Thomas_A_Rea@mcpsmd.org. Our objective this year is to have 6 single day evening trips to local ski areas (Ski Liberty, Ski Whitetail and Ski Roundtop). In the coming weeks the students will meet and schedule these trips. In addition the students will receive a Night Club Card (NCC) from the resort that will allow them unlimited evening skiing throughout the winter season. We will be skiing/snowboarding on Friday afternoons from approximately 3:30 to 10:00. On ski trip Fridays, club members will get out of class at 1:50pm, collect their gear and board a chartered bus in the school parking lot. The students will have a storeroom available on ski trip Friday to store their gear during school hours. The bus leaves the RHS parking lot at 2:10pm. Lessons will be given at the mountain starting at 4:30 for all ability levels and are highly recommended. Adult (teachers & parents) chaperones will either ski with the students or will be available at the lodge. We will return to the RHS parking lot at midnight. Our first trip will be the second week of January and we will continue for the Next 5 consecutive Fridays. Please note that The City of Rockville Recreation & Parks Department maintains the following basic rules which must be adhered to for the club to function smoothly. Your signature on this permission slip, and the receipt of this notice constitute acceptance of these rules.
