Mountain Travel News - May 18th, 2021 Town of Breckenridge Staff, It is my pleasure to introduce Stefi Szrek who has recently joined the Community Development Department as a Planner I. Stefi is from the Front Range where she worked most recently as a Planner for the City of Centennial. She graduated from the University of Colorado Denver in May 2019 with a Master’s in Urban and Regional Planning. Stefi loves her mini Aussie named Misha, spending time with her family, cooking, travelling, and being outdoors of course! Fun fact- she is also fluent in Polish. We are excited to have Stefi join our team and after a few weeks on the job, has already become an integral member of the Planning Division. Please welcome Stefi to the Town! Julia Puester, AICP Assistant Community Development Director Town of Breckenridge 150 Ski Hill Road P.O. Box 168 Breckenridge, CO 80424 Phone (970) 547-3174 Good morning, We are so pleased to welcome Dannie York to the Town of Breckenridge Municipal Services team! Dannie will be at the front desk of Town Hall, so next time you come in please say hello and introduce yourself to her. Dannie moved to Breckenridge in 2012 from the central coast of California and quickly learned she is a mountain girl to the core! You may have seen Dannie around Town while working at Farmers Korner Vet Hospital, the Ski Resort or the Welcome Center in the past. Dannie is a self-proclaimed bird nerd, and a morning person. She loves boating, hiking and skiing with her family. We are excited to have her as part of our team and to greet staff and the public as our buildings reopen. Welcome, Dannie!

After a challenging year, we were thrilled to be able to offer a safe, fun, drug-free, and alcohol-free post-prom event for 117 students a few weeks ago. With careful planning and guidance from Summit County Environmental Health, we were able to hold this event in-person by spreading attendees over two separate sessions, maintaining social distance between small groups of students (per prom specific guidance), and having students wear masks except when eating. We added a new red-carpet style pre-prom activity this year, the “Grand March” with the help of the Lake Dillon Theatre Company. I’m attaching a few photos to give you a sense of what a fun evening it was. Thanks for making this a night to remember for Summit County youth!

MAIN ST, UNIT A 5/15/2021 April 30, 2021 Occupancy Forecast Notes Hello Breckenridge, Historically, in lodging metrics, April 30 represents the end of the winter season. Mother Nature has her own plans in 2021. Comparing occupancies and room nights on the books in 2020-21 to 2019-20 is okay month to month but not for a seasonal aggregate. The numbers represented below are comparisons of properties participating in DestiMetrics reports in each year. The available unit growth only represents changes in DestiMetrics participant’s unit quantities. For changes in short-term rental license quantities, Town of Breckenridge data is used. The 2020-21 winter season compared to the 2018-2019 winter season; based on DestiMetrics reports shows: • 2020-21 had 13% more room nights available • 2020-21 BOOKED 3% more room nights • The average daily rate was $335 in 2020-21 vs. $315 in 2018-19 • RevPAR was $172 in ‘20/21 vs. $178 in ‘18/19 • 2020-21 Occupancy was 51.3% vs 56.9% in 2018-19. April occupancy closed at 39.1%, which was the highest April occupancy percentage in the last 11 years.
