Sugarbush is owned by a small group of families, with my family holding the majority interest. We enjoy being independently owned because it gives us the freedom to manage Sugarbush in a way that we feel is best for our guests and for the Mad River Valley community. This is a responsibility we take very seriously. As the ski industry consolidates, the question arises of whether smaller, independently owned and operated resorts can compete with the emerging Goliaths. We respect the larger corporations, their financial firepower, and their breadth of reach, but we believe there is room for independents like us. To be successful, we have to offer a quality product and excellent service to those guests who value what we have to offer. By remaining independent and privately owned, we can focus on the long term and not be intimidated by and beholden to quarterly performance. We do not have to grow for the sake of growing, and can make quick decisions, placing our guests’ interests first. Our decision makers are not located in a remote boardroom, but, rather, in the lift lines, on the mountain slopes, in the restaurants, and on the golf course with you. This year we joined the Mountain Collective, a group of sixteen independently owned ski areas in the United States and Canada, with affiliates in Chile, France, and Japan. As the only eastern resort in the Collective so far (we took Stowe’s place upon Vail’s announced purchase of the resort), we are honored to partner with such an exclusive group of western mountains. (See “Independently Yours,” page 29.) Our mission here at Sugarbush is to cultivate a spirit of lifelong adventure and camaraderie. Decades ago, my family chose Sugarbush over other ski areas for those two notions: adventure and camaraderie. We came not only to enjoy skiing and recreating, but also for the camaraderie we discovered here. Since our earliest days, we have felt that life is better here in the Mad River Valley. Now, as owners, we are committed to making Sugarbush even better in the years ahead, operating in as responsible an environmental fashion as we can, and supporting our local community along the way. We begin the 2017–18 season with two new fixed-grip quad chairlifts: the Village Quad at Lincoln Peak and the Sunshine Quad at Mt. Ellen. These will greatly enhance our beginner experience at both mountains. We replaced the snowmaking pipe on Which Way at Mt. Ellen, making the trail more accessible to all levels of skiers and riders. We purchased additional low- energy snowmaking guns, and replaced an older air compressor with a new adjustable compressor that allows us to control the amount of air we produce, and thus reduce our energy consumption. We just replaced our scanners with RFID gates, significantly enhancing the guest experience in the lift lines. Since our purchase of Sugarbush in 2001, we have installed seven new lifts, and invested $65 million in the mountain. I have enjoyed seeing our community expand as families have moved into Clay Brook, Rice Brook, and Gadd Brook Slopeside—our newest condominiums. When you visit us next, I hope you will stop in and see these ideal four-season homes, which represent one of the last opportunities to own slopeside—with ski-in and ski-off convenience. We look forward to seeing you this season and sharing some adventure and camaraderie with you. Cheers, Win Smith President, Sugarbush Resort 6 SUGARBUSH MAGAZINE An unmistakably authentic atmosphere. A genuine Vermont country setting. A local spirit that reflects the diversity of characters who live here – farmers, artisans, and adventurers, to name a few. Come discover Sugarbush living.

I’m not talking a 65-degree day with push-piles of mush. This was true corn snow that had frozen overnight before thawing just enough in the afternoon to make stellar conditions. I had planned to take a run or two with the new Sugarbush Ski & Ride School director, Terry Barbour, before heading indoors to interview him. But it turned out that the skiing was just too good, so we combined chairlift interviews with spring turns as I took in pointers from Terry. I’d learn about him on the lift; he’d improve my skiing on the hill. It seemed like a more appropriate way to get to know a ski school director.

  • Ski Industry Leases Of
    Vermont State Auditor Douglas R. Hoffer Report to the Vermont Legislature and the Agency of Natural Resources State Land Leases Boost Ski Industry, but Are Dated and Inconsistent 1/20/2015 • Office of the Vermont State Auditor • Non-Audit Report 15-01 Mission Statement The mission of the Vermont State Auditor’s Office is to hold government accountable. This means ensuring taxpayer funds are used effectively and efficiently, and that we foster the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse. Principal Investigator Andrew C. Stein Non-Audit Inquiry This is a non-audit report. A non-audit report is a tool used to inform citizens and management of issues that may need attention. It is not an audit and is not conducted under generally accepted government auditing standards. A non-audit report has a substantially smaller scope of work than an audit. Therefore, its conclusions are more limited, and it does not contain recommendations. Instead, the report includes information and possible risk-mitigation strategies relevant to the entity that is the object of the inquiry. DOUGLAS R. HOFFER STATE AUDITOR STATE OF VERMONT OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR January 20, 2015 The Honorable Shap Smith Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable John Campbell President Pro Tempore of the Senate The Honorable Peter Shumlin Governor Deb Markowitz Secretary of Natural Resources Dear Colleagues, More than 70 years ago, the State decided to catalyze a new industry by leasing public land to companies willing to invest in the infrastructure necessary for downhill skiing. By most measures, this partnership has been successful, and our iconic mountains are now home to world- famous ski areas.

Humbly, she would call herself a homemaker, which is an understatement for her creative work; providing a culturally rich home environment. Instinctively, she understood the power of multi-modality before it was even a term. A woman of deep faith, she exemplified a vibrant love of God and the Bible. Hers was not a religion of legalism, but of freedom. As a result, the atmosphere she created encouraged creativity; rich with music, art and literature. Early on, she introduced us to children’s literature, as she read aloud Winnie the Pooh, Peter Rabbit and many other illustrated classics. Her deep love of illustrated children’s books was infectious. Later, she continued to encourage a love of literature with an ever growing library that included The Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, The Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of the Rings, The Princess and the Goblin and The Little House series.

  • Rando – Introducing the World's First Ski Suit in 3-Layer Gore-Tex® Active
    Press release February 2013 Rando – introducing the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active Perhaps the secret of Randonée lies in the contrast of struggling up the mountain only to later enjoy the ride down. Perhaps it is the science of finding snow that no one else has broken before. Or perhaps just to enjoy the vast landscape. Regardless of the reason, the activity places special demands on the equipment. For the 2013 winter season Haglöfs is introducing a new extensive collection for skiers who want to explore far away from the lift system and pistes. All of these products, which are gathered under the RANDO family, were developed with a focus on safety and being able to quickly and easily adapt the clothing based on changing weather conditions or whether you are headed up or down the mountain. One of this year’s big releases is RANDO AS SUIT – the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active. During its product development stage, Haglöfs focused on taking advantage of the properties of Gore’s Active technology in order to be able to offer the lightest and the most comfortable, waterproof and breathable skiing garment on the market. RANDO AS SUIT has an unembellished design, but with all of the product features a skier would expect, such as a helmet-compatible, adjustable 3-way hood, a DWR-treated outer surface and pockets strategically placed so that they are accessible even when carrying a backpack. The suit also has long, reinforced and waterproof zippers at the armpits and along the thighs in order to maximize ventilation.

  • 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.

  • Gcse Marking Scheme
    GCSE MARKING SCHEME SUMMER 2016 DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY: TEXTILES 4131/01 © WJEC CBAC Ltd. INTRODUCTION This marking scheme was used by WJEC for the 2016 examination. It was finalised after detailed discussion at examiners' conferences by all the examiners involved in the assessment. The conference was held shortly after the paper was taken so that reference could be made to the full range of candidates' responses, with photocopied scripts forming the basis of discussion. The aim of the conference was to ensure that the marking scheme was interpreted and applied in the same way by all examiners. It is hoped that this information will be of assistance to centres but it is recognised at the same time that, without the benefit of participation in the examiners' conference, teachers may have different views on certain matters of detail or interpretation. WJEC regrets that it cannot enter into any discussion or correspondence about this marking scheme. © WJEC CBAC Ltd.
