Fellow Patrollers and Hosts!

Well, as I write this to you all it is April 27th winter is not quite said and done, as it is snowing! Most of our resorts are either closed or this is the last weekend in the Mother Lode! 

What a season of skiing!… It did start out a bit sparse but picked up in March with several inches of cold snow and some wonderful spring skiing.  Our region had numerous successes this season thanks to ALL of you, especially my MLR Team of leadership and advisors. Several clinics spread out around the region with toboggans and SEM were well attended and our region grew our Senior numbers!

As Region Director and both as an OEC and OET IT, I was blessed to be able to attend, and participate, in several of these events ranging from the Summit resorts on Highway 80 to China Peak east of Fresno. The Mother Lode Patrols are really stepping it up and you all deserve the credit for your hard work!

Now it is time to break out the bikes, kayaks, golf discs or clubs and get outside. Alpine bike patrols will be gearing up and training soon for the upcoming summer season while urban patrols and host units will escalate their service commitment with their growing numbers of public on the sun soaked trails. 

Recruitment-Retention-Recognition 

Our MLR Recognition dinner is May 3rd at Stama Winery in Lodi and I am looking forward to seeing many of you there as we honor our region's patrols, patrollers, and hosts.

Thank you for all that you do! Your time is one of our most important resources!

All the Best,
William J. Borelli
Mother Lode Region Director
