2014 Olympic/Paralympic Medal Winners, Wheaton Headline Ski Affair 400 Expected at Marriott Library’S Nov
Fall 2014 J. Willard Marriott Library-University of Utah Editor: Mike Korologos 2014 Olympic/Paralympic Medal Winners, Wheaton Headline Ski Affair 400 Expected at Marriott Library’s Nov. 5 Awards Banquet Eight individuals from the Intermountain Area awash in national and international winter sports honors will receive more accolades Nov. 5 at the 24th annual Ski Affair, a fun-and nostalgia-filled fundraising dinner presented by the University of Utah’s J. Willard Marriott Library’s Ski Archives. The archives house the largest cache of skiing/snow sports history in the country. Receiving History-Maker Awards from the library will be seven medal winners from the 2014 Olympic Winter Games that took place last February in Sochi, Russia. Bob Wheaton, president of Deer Valley, perennially ranked No. 1 among the nation’s ski resorts, will receive the library’s prestigious S.J. Quinney Award for his contributions to the industry. Annually the library’s largest fundraising event, the Ski Affair is expected to attract more than 400 at the Little America Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City on Wednesday, Nov. 5. Activities will begin with a 6 p.m. reception and silent auction, followed by a buffet dinner, awards ceremony and vintage film footage. Further spicing the event this year will be an “opportunity drawing” for a prize comprised of four Rossignol ski packages and four Park City Powder Cat excursions valued at over $9,000. Quinney Award recipient Wheaton joined Deer Valley in 1981 and became its president in 1997. His extensive public service work and contributions to winter sports are aligned with the legacy of the award’s namesake, Joe Quinney, who founded Alta Ski Area in 1937 and is considered “the father of Utah’s ski industry.” Putting its pedal to the medals, the library will present its History-Maker Awards to these 2014 U.S.
