The Whistler WC Committee would like to congratulate the officials selected for ROC positions for  the 2008 Whistler World Cup events and the 2008 Pontiac GMC Canadian Championships at Whistler.  

Each of the following WC Chiefs and Assistants will work together at Lake Louise, Panorama and Whistler during this up-coming (2007/2008) season. The assistants named will already have worked in a Chief position at either Panorama or Lake Louise and bring their experience to the Whistler team of Key Chief positions. With direction from the FIS, the intent is to train  adequate numbers of people to fill all roles required for 2010. The Key Chief positions while named for the 2008 World Cup in Whistler will be re-evaluated for the structure and chief positions as the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games team is finalized.
