Bear Valley Sports
Education Foundation (BVSEF)
- BVSEF is a not-for profit
organization dedicated to the support of Bear Valley's snowsports athletes.
Its membership is made up of parents and volunteers, such as yourselves,
whose children are involved in the snowsports programs at Bear Valley.
- All families will need to register on the Bear Valley Sports Education
Foundation website at www.bvsef.org. This is a free site, but does require
a password to access. This is the main form of communication that will be
used by Bear Valley and its coaches to keep you updated on your child's ski
program throughout the ski season. If you have not already registered, PLEASE
DO SO AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
- To help keep the cost down on your child's skiing
program, BVSEF parent members should plan on volunteering their time
at the events that take place at Bear Valley throughout the ski season. Some
of the events that we support through our volunteerism are:
1) The USSA
Far-West J4-J5 slalom race that takes place this season at Bear Valley
on January 5-6.
2) Jim Bottomley Memorial Race. (During Christmas camp, final date
to be announced).
3) Devo Olympics- End of the season race for all Devo participants.
4) Auction and Fund raising events, such as our Silent Auction and
Casino Night. (dates to be announced).
Please help our young athletes by being a volunteer. If all parents
could commit to volunteering at these events throughout the year we
will be able to help Bear Valley put on a great ski season for our
children.
