COVID-19 Season Modifications

The GKHAT program for our Minis and U6’s (all 4 and 5-year-olds) will be modified to half-day programs for 2021 to mitigate issues regarding shelter. We certainly do not want the little ones to get too cold!
The GKHAT training day this season will run without a lunch hour and end at 13:30 for all U8/10/12/14 skiers. The yurt will not be used as a drop off/pick up point this season. Pick up points will be the same as drop off points for all groups (all outlined below).
U6, U8 and U10 athletes will be grouped based on community cohorts for 2021. Most Golden athletes will train on Fridays and Sundays, while the U6/8/10 groups for our Alberta athletes will all train on Saturdays. U6/8/10 groups will not mix and will remain in the same cohort for the entire season. Athletes will not move between or change groups.
The Yurt will be off-limits to all athletes and members. No equipment is to be left or stored at the yurt.
Athletes with the following symptoms are asked not to participate in skiing. See forthcoming detailed return to sport protocols for more information regarding management of symptoms & decisions to ski:
- Fever, chills, cough or worsening of chronic cough, shortness of breath, loss of sense of smell or taste, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.
