OUR BOARD MEMBERS

I'm Will Currat and I am looking forward to serving as your President once again. The Swiss Club has been an important part of my life and I have been a member ever since I was a child. My Dad was from Switzerland and moved to Colorado in the 60's because he wanted to climb mountains. He was from the French speaking part of Switzerland from a small town called Corserey in the Canton of Fribourg. My mom is from Versailles, France and my parents met in Colorado when a mutual friend introduced them to each other because they both spoke French. I love conversing in French but my Swiss German is non-existent, sorry!


My dad was killed in an avalanche when I was a child, and some of you may not know this, but the Swiss club helped fund a plaque in his honor at the site of the avalanche at St. Mary's glacier in Idaho Springs, CO, in memory of the three people who died at that site.

My wife Jessica is an active club member and is also a board member, She currently does all the social media, emails and website updates. I have two kids. My daughter Isabelle is a nurse in Grand Junction and my son Martin is an auto mechanic in Denver.  

In my day job I'm a Denver Deputy Sheriff, and on the weekends during the winter I coach for a kids ski program at Winter Park resort. I wish that was my full time job but skiing doesn't seem to pay the bills.

I'd love to hear from you, as we are always looking for ways to improve the club. If you have any feedback or suggestions for new events please don't hesitate to contact me by phone at 720-988-9893 or email at info@safs.us . 

Á la prochaine.

Willam Currat, SAFS President
