Contracted Staff
While Spokane Nordic Ski Association is largely a volunteer organization, it does contract with several individuals to fulfill functions that are too specialized or intense to be met well by within the time constraints of an all-volunteer board or volunteer members.
Brad Thiessen - Skier Engagement
As Director of Engagement, Brad provides marketing, skier communications, website and membership database maintenance, volunteer coordination and program/event registration systems. Brad previously contracted with Spokane Nordic from 2011-2015.
