Phoenix Mountain Alpine Ski Society

This non-profit society was incorporated in 1981. Its primary purpose is to operate a ski / snowboard facility in the area of Phoenix Mountain, Grand Forks, BC. The affairs of the society are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors elected annually from the society membership. The Board’s role is to oversee the work of Ski Hill staff, to co-ordinate the many volunteers whose efforts keep the hill viable, and to plan for the future of the facility.

Our current board consists of the following:

President: John Malins Directors: Klaus Bialon

Vice President: Gordon Dahl   Ken Makortoff

Treasurer: Don Colclough   Gary Onions

Secretary: Gordon Smith   Pierre Peron

Darcy Skerritt

Why become a Society Member?

The days when a small ski area like Phoenix could be self-supporting through its ticket and pass sales are in the past. We rely increasingly on the support of the BC Government and the local Regional Districts and Municipal Governments for supplementary funding. Among the criteria that these bodies consider are the strength and involvement of our membership in the affairs of the society.

If you are a current season passholder and wish to be able to vote at the Annual General Meeting, or perhaps to run for a position on the Board of Directors, you must be a society member.

How do I become a Society Member?

If you are a current adult season passholder, fill out the linked form and submit it for approval to the Board of Directors. There is no membership fee other than the requirement that you be a season passholder.

When do I cease to be a Society Member?

Your society membership ends on April 30 of a year when you do not buy a season pass. This ensures that our membership list stays current and consists of people who are committed to the well-being and the future of the ski hill.
