COVID-19 and the 2020 season

GKHAT Board | Published on 9/10/2020
GKHAT is planning to have the best season possible given the changes that will be necessary to keep our skiers safe and healthy. The board and safety committee have been developing a COVID safety plan, following BC Alpine and BC Government Return to Sport guidelines and with communication with KHMR. Once complete, the plan will be posted on our website. While we are not yet able to finalize all policies and plans, the following changes will likely be in effect:
  • Mini-GKHAT and U6 level skiing will be a half day program throughout the season
  • Highly restricted or no access to the GKHAT yurt for athletes (stay tuned for our outdoor workaround plans)
  • As a result of limited indoor space, cold weather policy will be revised 
  • Requirement to sign COVID wavers for all athletes for every day of skiing 
  • Changes to the required equipment for athletes during ski days 
  • Changes to races and club events (see below)
  • Changes to the nature and frequency of volunteer requirements
