Let's Toast 8 Amazing Skiers & Visionaries Who Made Maine the Way Skiing Should 2015 Where most people saw snow, they envisioned mountains of opportunity. Let’s toast 8 amazing skiers & visionaries who made Maine the way skiing should be. Class of 2015 Induction Maine Ski Hall of Fame Saturday, October 24, 2015 Grand Summit Hotel Sunday River Ski Resort Newry, Maine 1 PROGRAM Masters of Ceremonies Greg Sweetser • Dave Irons • Russ Murley • John Christi e Class of 2015 Tom Kendall John Diller Megan Roberts Luba Lowery Bruce Chalmers John Ritzo Peter Davis Jill Sickels Matlock M ISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Maine Ski Hall of Fame is to recognize those skiers, who through their efforts and achievements have brought distinction to Maine skiing. Some of these skiers made their mark in competition. Others were founders who built the sport into a way of life for so many Mainers. Still more were teachers who led countless skiers and competitors into our sport. Some had an intense impact on local skiers while others gained prominence on an international scale. Thanks to these skiers Maine has an industry that is a vital part of the economy, not only in the mountains, but throughout the state. It is to recognize the importance of skiing to Maine and its citizens that the Maine Ski Hall of Fame has been formed. By enshrining those men and women who founded and built the sport in Maine, competitors who brought prominence to Maine skiing, their coaches and mentors, and others who have made significant contributions, we shall create a permanent record of their endeavors and achievements. By doing this we shall preserve this history for those to follow, that they may understand the great achievements of these individuals.

    Celebrating and Preserving the History and Heritage of Maine Skiing • Spring 2018 SKI MUSEUM OF MAINE Jean Luce, First Lady of Maine Skiing By Leigh Breidenbach “...For the next few years [the] main proponent [of freestyle] was to be someone completely unaware of the large part she was to play”- Morten Lund Let’s be clear right from the start, Jean Luce will most likely disagree with the title of this piece; however if you read Dave Irons brief but spectacular 2004 Hall of Fame bio on Jean’s contributions to skiing and competitive skiing in particular, the title of “First Lady of Maine Skiing” is spot on. Jean has officiated at every level of ski racing: World Cup, World Championship, and Olympic. In 1969, she wrote the Eastern Freestyle Rule Book, which would became the first official USSA Freestyle Rule Book. Jean’s willingness to say yes to a challenge is well know in the racing world and at Sugarloaf in particular. In the fall of 1968, Jean and her husband Norton, members of the Sugarloaf Ski Club received a phone call from Roger Peabody, executive director of the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association, asking if the Ski Club Jean Luce with Harry Baxter, Sugarloaf Ski School Director and Sugarloaf Ski resort would be interested in in a publicity photo for the 1971 Tall Timber Classic World Cup Race hosting a World Cup race.

Johnsen Company of Portland. Despite these early glimmers of skiing awareness, when the sport began its ascendancy to popularity in the 1930s, the state’s likeliest venues were more distant, and public land ownership less widespread, than was the case in the neighboring states of New Hampshire and Vermont, and ski area development in those states was consequently greater.

  • Perspectives of the Sport-Oriented Public in Slovenia on Extreme Sports
    Rauter, S. and Doupona Topič, M.: PERSPECTIVES OF THE SPORT-ORIENTED ... Kinesiology 43(2011) 1:82-90 PERSPECTIVES OF THE SPORT-ORIENTED PUBLIC IN SLOVENIA ON EXTREME SPORTS Samo Rauter and Mojca Doupona Topič University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Sport, Ljubljana, Slovenia Original scientific paper UDC 796.61(035) (497.4) Abstract: The purpose of the research was to determine the perspectives of the sport-oriented people regarding the participation of a continuously increasing number of athletes in extreme sports. At the forefront, there is the recognition of the reasons why people actively participate in extreme sports. We were also interested in the popularity of individual sports and in people‘s attitudes regarding the dangers and demands of these types of sports. The research was based on a statistical sample of 1,478 sport-oriented people in Slovenia, who completed an online questionnaire. The results showed that people were very familiar with individual extreme sports, especially the ultra-endurance types of sports. The people who participated in the survey stated that the most dangerous types of sports were: extreme skiing, downhill mountain biking and mountaineering, whilst the most demanding were: Ironman, ultracycling, and ultrarunning. The results have shown a wider popularity of extreme sports amongst men and (particularly among the people participating in the survey) those who themselves prefer to do these types of sports the most. Regarding the younger people involved in the survey, they typically preferred the more dangerous sports as well, whilst the older ones liked the demanding sports more. People consider that the key reasons for the extreme athletes to participate in extreme sports were entertainment, relaxation and the attractiveness of these types of sports.

  • THE DETERMINANTS of SKI RESORT SUCCESS the Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business
    THE DETERMINANTS OF SKI RESORT SUCCESS A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Ezekiel Anouna May/2010 THE DETERMINANTS OF SKI RESORT SUCCESS Ezekiel Anouna May, 2010 Economics Abstract As the economy is in a decline, fewer people are willing to pay for luxuries such as vacations. Thus, the ski resort industry is suffering. This thesis reveals an opportunity m the growth of free skiing and a demand for more difficult terrain. In this paper, data is collected from nearly all Colorado ski resorts to form a regression model explaining resort success. Regression analysis is conducted to discover what aspects of a ski resort contribute to success. Primarily, skier visits from the 2008-2009 ski season are_useclas the dependant variable in the regression model to measure resort success. Additionally, hedonic pricing theory is applied to test lift ticket price as a dependant variable. The paper finds that resort size, and possibly terrain park features are related to resort success. The hedonic pricing regression finds that bowl skiing, and lack of crowds, increase consumer willingness to pay for expensive lift tickets. KEYWORDS: (ski resort, terrain park, hedonic pricing) ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Signature I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Esther Redmount, for her support and consistent efforts to make sure I was on track. I would like to thank my family for supporting me in so many ways throughout my college career.
