Mission, Vision, and Guiding Principles

Adopted Summer 2022 by the Board of Directors

Mission

It is the mission of Cloud City Mountain Sports to provide youth from Lake and Chaffee counties the opportunity to excel as people and athletes through education and outdoor sports. We foster a love of outdoor recreation and educate youth about the value of sport and competition.

Vision

Our vision is to produce lifelong athletes who are committed to personal growth, focus on achieving individual goals in or out of competition through structured training, and who respect their community and their peers. 

Guiding Principles

Our programs:

• Collaborate with local and regional partners to ensure that there are program options for all athletes. 

• Help each athlete be in the program that will lead to the most success. 

• Prepare athletes to move into more intense competitive environments and help to guide them to these opportunities when they are ready.

• Have quality coaches who provide developmentally appropriate training and skill development by being process rather than results focused.

• Are financially sustainable while being accessible to all.

• Promote and value diversity, compassion, commitment, and character.

• Will include athletes from outside Lake and Chaffee counties as resources allow.
