Many the North American Snowsports Journalists Association (NASJA) media members have covered Nordic skiing in various ways over the years in print, in photos, on-line, or as broadcast journalists. Now NASJA is working with the Cross Country Ski Areas Association (CCSAA) to develop more resources for information about Nordic skiing.
NASJA is a professional group of over 190 press and corporate members. Press members include writers, photographers and other communicators who report on ski, snowboard and Nordic related news, information and features via various media outlets. Corporate members include media contacts or employees of ski resorts, convention and visitor associations, manufacturers and others who have a commercial interest in the journalistic coverage of winter sports.
Since Kikkan Randall and Jessie Diggins won the first American Olympic XC gold medal a little over a year ago, the competition side of the sport has received a huge amount of well-deserved media attention. CCSAA looks forward to promoting the ski area side of things and will be available to NASJA members with ideas and contacts for stories.
CCSAA will keep members updated on developments with NASJA as well as specific opportunities to get involved. For more information, contact [email protected]
