January Mountain Sports Town Hall/2nd Sustainability Session/Shout Outs
From Christine Baker
Shout Outs for the Week
8am Shout Outs - 8am Ram8 Access for you and a friend.
Hey! Just wanted to let you know I rode the lift yesterday with a family that had a private with Tara Wegner. And they gave one of the most positive reviews I’ve ever heard in regards to both Tara and mtn sports as a whole.. along the lines of “We absolutely love the environment you guys cultivate, we have had an excellent experience.”… as well as “Tara worked with our entire family individually across entirely different ability levels and we all came out with new knowledge and improved skiing.” - Calvin
Andy, Tom and I would love to give Anna Gongaware a shout out the next time you send those out if you've got room! She jumped right into the holiday rush without much training, and she always works incredibly hard and is willing to take on any lesson without any complaints. She hopped onto a Spanish-speaking yellow dino lesson and absolutely knocked it out of the park. We love her attitude and hard work! - Bri
Maggie Moran: As a new instructor, Maggie has exhibited experience beyond her years and has excelled at providing an exceptional experience to our Mini Riders. Thank you Maggie!!
Lucie Hladik. She’s done a fantastic job jumping in to NASTAR and learning the ropes, finding things that need to get done and just getting them done.
Shout out to Jarod Forehand for doing all the things. So far this season he has worked snowmaking, helped with snow removal and set up and tear down, taught adults and children, skiing and snowboarding and taught those lessons in both English and Spanish. He does all the things with a high level of enthusiasm and engagement that is so inspiring.
Thank you all for your exceptional contributions. Your 8am run can be any day between 1/17 and 1/23. Please email Christy Mikulich (cmikulich@bigskyreort.com) and your manager:
