Dear Parents/Guardians,
St. Marguerite d’Youville is again organizing an overnight stay with Blue Mountain.
We are excited to get started, but need to communicate and collect some important
information first.
It is vital to make students aware that because this is an out of school sports activity
safety has a high priority. Students are expected to be careful with equipment on the bus as
well as on the slopes. We expect students to be polite, cooperative and courteous on and off
the slopes. As you well know, resorts will not tolerate activities that endanger the students or
others and require a “ski-off” or lesson as part of a safety checklist. Resorts now also require
all students to wear helmets when entering the terrain parks. Furthermore, because we will be
staying overnight at the Blue Mountain Inn there will be amenities that will be off-limits to
our students. The swimming pool, workout room, hot tub and other facilities will not be made
accessible to our students. There will be an evening curfew where all students will need to be
in their assigned suites by 11:30 pm. Any discipline issues on the trip will need to be dealt
with in the most swift and diligent of fashions on the trip and will be addressed back at
school by administration. Severe issues could also result in immediate withdrawal from the
excursion. In the case of withdrawal from the excursion, the guardian is responsible for
picking up their child or making travel arrangements for them.
The overnight outing has been scheduled for Thursday February 28th 2008 to Friday
February 29th 2007. We will be departing the school at 6:30 a.m. on Thursday and return by
5:30 p.m. on Friday (arrival time may be subject to change). We will be traveling by coach to
the Blue Mountain Resort Inn and all students will be expected to travel with the group, no
private transportation arrangements can be made. Students will be expected to wear and pack
proper clothing (as determined by the weather and weather reports), and take care of any
additional personal needs.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Mr. A. Carreiro

I have made no misrepresentation in regard to my height, weight, age or skier type, as I understand that the information I provided helped to determine
the proper sizing and adjustment of the rental equipment listed on the reverse of this form (the “Equipment”).
I am familiar with the proper use of the Equipment. I understand that the rental technicians are able to answer any questions I may have concerning the
proper use of the Equipment.
I accept full responsibility for the care of the Equipment and I agree to pay for any damage to the Equipment (unless I purchased breakage insurance)

Assumption of Risks
5. (a)
Alpine Skiing/Snowblading: I understand that the ski boot/binding system will not release at all times or under all circumstances, that it is not
possible to predict every situation in which the system will release, and that the system does not guarantee that I will not be injured.
(b)
Snowboarding: I understand that the snowboard boot/binding system is not designed or intended to release and will not release under normal
circumstances. I understand that as the snowboard boot/binding system is a non-release system, it will not reduce the risk of injury during a fall.

Helmet Rental: I understand that helmets are intended to help reduce the risk of serious head injury, however cannot completely eliminate or
prevent this risk. I understand that helmets do not prevent traumatic head injury or injury to the wearer’s face, neck or spinal cord.

exist throughout the ski area and many are unmarked.
I AM AWARE OF THE RISKS, DANGERS AND HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH SKIING, SNOWBOARDING AND OTHER RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
