  • President's Letter
    Nov ember 12, 2019 PRESIDENT’S LETTER W e Are The Fortunate Those who know me well know I’ve kept a daily ski log since my time at Syracuse University in 1972. I started it sophomore year and well, just kept at it. Forty-seven years later it accounts for approximately 1,000 days on skis, which is not bad for someone who used to live hours from the closest ski area. This month, on Nov. 6 to be exact, I broke my personal record for earliest day ever on skis – a half-day spent at Eldora, a Front Range ski area. Conditions on the front side of the mountain were excellent, under clear bluebird skies. With an Ikon Pass, I didn’t have to exhaust myself skiing from open to close, as I used to when buying a day pass. And with free Wifi, I could convince my clients and editors I was still hard at work. Who needs WeWork when there’s a workspace in a base lodge? My first day of the season reminded me how lucky we all are. Our Active members get to tell the public where to go and what to wear, and how to enjoy their time at ski and cross-country resorts throughout North America. Our Corporate members get to spend their professional lives creating the modern gear and apparel we all rely upon, and the high speed lifts, resort amenities and other services that make snowsports such an important part of the lives of millions of Americans and Canadians. To be able to spend our time in this white winter world makes us fortunate indeed.
