THE SKI & SPORTS CLUB OF WASHINGTON, DCGREAT SPORTS FOR ALL SEASONS |
"THE RECOGNITION SLOPE" is SCWDC's record of awards and volunteer service
This page is dedicated to recognizing current and past volunteers who have led the club to provide a lot of fun and many varied activities for members and guests. The page is named "The Recognition Slope" for those skiers who were challenged to take a ski lift to the highest part of the mountain and had the skills to ski down. Also true in real life.
We are much more than a "ski club", we offer activities year-round. These include skiing and ski instruction, tennis, golf, sailing, volleyball, hiking, biking, bowling, and also run overseas travel and cruise trips including club med ones. Our club 's success depends on volunteers.
This document, Award Summary.pdf, briefly describes for the criteria for each award. THE CLUB POLICY MANUAL, Attachment 3, contains the full description and criteria for most awards. This document describes the "How To" for the Board of Directors to consider awards: 2022 Awards Guide Pointers And Timeline.Docx
