Ed Meyer Volunteer of the Year Award presented to Bill Reiner

At the Awards Banquet on April 24th, long time club member Bill Reiner was presented with the 1st annual Ed Meyer Volunteer of the Year Award. This award was established by the Board of Directors in 2010 in memory of Ed Meyer who passed away last year. One of the many positive attributes of Ed was his unselfish giving of his time and efforts in support of the club and it's athletes during races and other events. The award will be presented annually to a member of the club, who is not a present member of the board of directors, for their outstanding volunteer efforts. A perpetual plaque, on display in the club trophy case, will commemorate Ed and the present and future award winners.

 

The board is proud to present Bill Reiner with the 2010 award. Bill served on the SRRC board of directors from 1990 through 2009 and held the position of Treasures for 17 years. After his retirement from the board, Bill offered to assist with race timing. Under the tutelage of Bill Filling, our resident timing expert, Bill Reiner studied and practiced set-up and operation of the timing system throughout the fall of 2009 and worked as a member of the timing crew during every SRRC race held at Ski Roundtop this past season. Thanks to Bill for stepping up to the plate to learn this new job and volunteering his time each weekend during the season to assist in helping to ensure that our races run smoothly and that the results are fair and accurate.

Tess Beinhaur overcame a chipped tooth during Saturday's SL race by posting two strong finishes in GS on Sunday to claim the state GS championship. She finished 5th overall. Blake Bowman won both runs of SL on Saturday to claim the state SL championship but slipped to 2nd place overall after running into a little trouble during Sunday's GS. The state GS championship was won by Andrew Stewart (little skippy) who posted a first and a second place finish on Sunday, finishing in 4th place overall. Carson Twiford skied very consistently both days, finishing 3rd in SL, 4th in GS and 3rd overall. Luke Midock skied well in Sunday's GS, winning one run, to finish 3rd in GS and 6th overall. Jessie Meyer finished 4th in one run of SL and appeared to be headed for another good result in GS before crashing three gates from the finish. Jessie rebounded with a strong effort in his second run to finished 9th overall. In the end, SRRC athletes claimed 5 of the 9 men's team and 2 of the 7 ladies team spots, placing a total of 7 athletes on the PARA J4-5 State Team which is headed to the Future Stars Festival at Waterville Valley, NH on March 21-23.
