David Carpenter: Chairman

I have been a ski instructor since 1997 and achieved my snow licence through BASI in 2003. I have been coaching the race club for several years and work away with school groups on snow at least 1 week a year as a guide and instructor. My full time job as a Driving Instructor means I get to teach Skiing and Driving to many of my pupils.

Dan McKrill - Vice Chairman

I have been a ski instructor for the past 6 years and learnt to ski at Snowtrax before I went on my first skiing holiday with my school at the tender age of 14, some 17 years ago. I also race on the SRSA race circuit with the people we teach to race. I, like David get the chance to teach/guide on snow a couple of times a year, which is great fun. I’m also a little bit mad and have been known to ski off the odd cliff when away on snow, it’s all good fun though….

Nigel Lawson - Secretary

Past Chairman and combines Committee duties with racing. Ambition is to beat his son, Alistair!!!

Tony Thomas - Treasurer

Never say that you work for a Bank or are an auditor!! I became involved with Snowtrax approximately 7 years ago, when my son, at the age of 6 years, wanted to join me on a skiing holiday. I said he could come if he learned to ski and, following initial lessons, he soon progressed to the SRSA race circuit and has just started an instructor course.

Janet McKrill - Child Welfare Officer

I have been a race coach at Snowtrax for the past 8 years and learnt to ski there when I was only 9, 17 years ago!!!! I am a schools nurse hence the reason for me being the child welfare officer. I race on the SRSA circuit and also try to get away on snow, as much as work and money will allow, with my husband Dan (vice chairman). Someone has to look after him when he’s away!

Donna Otton - Communications Officer & Membership Secretary

I started at the ski centre 8 years ago when my 2 daughters had a ski lesson birthday party, they progressed from penguins to bears etc and was then invited to join the race club, I am a taxi service to them travelling to all the ski races for SRSA and All England occasionally. We have had several skiing holidays with the race club and I have even tried the dry stuff, not for me. You will usually see me on the side lines with a glass of wine!!! The girls have a true passion for skiing. I joined the committee 4 years ago as secretary and I am now the communications officer.
