<h2><strong>Important:</strong></h2>

	<li>Skiing is a dangerous sport.&nbsp;We strongly advise everyone to&nbsp;<strong>wear helmets</strong>&nbsp;regardless of skill level. Follow these rules while you&rsquo;re out there:

	<ul>
		<li>Always stay in control.</li>
		<li>People ahead of you always have the right of way.</li>
		<li>Do not ski with people above your level; they will most likely take you to terrain you are not ready for.</li>
		<li>If an emergency occurs, contact one of our Safety Officers, Ski Patrol, and/or 911 depending on the severity of the emergency.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
	<li>Safety Officers - Please save our safety officers&rsquo; contact info in case of emergency:
	<ul>
		<li>Steph Uveges - (732)551-5315</li>
