On the business end of the stick, I strongly advise every official to log into the member dashboard and check to see if you are up to date. When the website was down last fall, the automated system that informed us of our officials' status was broken also. The Usa/Awsa staff is doing their best to let us all know where we stand, but it is the responsibility of each official to be sure they are up to date. If an official is not up to date and works an event, the skiers' scores could be downgraded or lost altogether. I know none of us wants to land in that situation, so take a few minutes, login, and check your status!
Finally, the 2024 Absentee Ballot is posted here. Be sure to get your vote in to be counted! Link here
If you need any help or support, please do not hesitate to reach out and contact your Board of Directors or your EVP!
