2019 Annual Report www.wsssm.org NEW: 2019 Exhibit on Avalanche Dogs Thank You for Your Support! Dear WSSSM Family, As I write this 2019 Annual Report (now in 2020), I reflect on a different time at WSSSM. Back in 2019 we were hosting visitors, parties, private events (look at the crowded museum) gleefully without face masks or hand sanitizer. Now we have pivoted to online collections and Zoom events. In 2019, we said a huge thank you to Hugh Armstrong, co-founder of the museum with wife, Dollie, who became our first board directors emeritus. We are delighted that the Armstrong Family continues on the WSSSM Board of Directors with legendary daughter and Olympic Gold Medalist, Deb Armstrong. We are also thrilled to welcome long –time ski industry veteran John Sutherland, marketing expert Christie King, and The Summit’s General Manager, Guy Lawrence to our WSSSM Board. Lastly, thank you so much for your support after the passing of my wife of 50 years, Susan Moffett. Susan was a history major in college and champion and supporter of the museum. She reveled in seeing so many long-time friends at our events. I look forward to seeing many of you at the museum when we are able. 4th Anniversary Celebration For now, I say a huge THANK YOU for your continued support during this difficult time! Thank you!
