Vaccine - Tram - Town Hall

From Christine Baker

Hi Mountain Sports School Team,

Conditions on the Mountain
It is really fun to see a complete Swift 6 and snowmaking going on Tippy's, Ambush, Upper Mr. K, and the base area all at the same time - the upgraded Snowmaking system is working well.

Mountain Sports Town Hall

Vaccine Mandate Update
OSHA's Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) has been released and we anticipate following it. Here is the plan, as of now:

  • Team Members will need to be vaccinated by Jan. 4

  • Anyone who wants to opt out of vaccination will need to:

    • Wear a mask while indoors (starting Dec. 15)

    • Test weekly

It is possible that we will be masking indoors for all guests and team members, I will let you know as soon as I hear the final word. In general, we will have more details to share in the following weeks.

To help us come up with our testing plan, we are asking everyone to let their direct manager know their vaccination status.

Misunderstanding of the Week
You cannot ProBook a new private lesson guest. We encourage guests new to you to go online and book (have them put your name as a request). By booking online they save $50 per day. If they do not want to book online, please have them call the office at 406-995-5743!
