Goodbye 2013, Hello 2014

Greetings,

As 2013 closes out Okemo ends a very successful year.  Between having a very successful ski season last year, to the success of our summer operations and Golf Course operations to a very successful Christmas Holiday week that just ended, 2013 was a great year.

None of this would have been possible without two partners.  The first being you, our guests.  The confidence that you have in Okemo Mountain Resort as well as the support that everyone gives is tremendous.  The reason that Okemo does all that we do is for you. As fans, you are there to cheer us on when needed and boo us when it is needed.  We in turn work hard to provide the best experience possible for the best value.  Okemo guests are the best around.  We cannot say thank you enough for trust you place in Okemo Mountain Resort.

The second partner is our staff.  None of our lights would turn on or our doors unlocked if it was not for this great team of employees.  Every day each and every Okemo employee gives their best to help make the Okemo Difference. The Okemo experience is second to none and it is because of the dedicated, passionate and competent employees who have chosen to work for the Mueller Family and Okemo Mountain Resort.  The team work is so evident each and every day and the members of the 55 departments we have all pull in one direction.
 
Snowmaking is continuing as we head into January. Work on the Amp Energy Super Pipe is taking place with snowmaking going strong and some shaping on one wall beginning.  We are also going to go after the rest of the snowmaking trails that have not had snow made on them yet. This includes Easy Rider, Upper and Lower Tomahawk, Easy Street, Home Stretch, Ledges as well as Lower Fall Line, Snow Trak, Dream Weaver & Triple Sec.  We will work on these trails during the next few weeks as well as resurface on many of existing trails as needed. These snowstorms have been helpful to make for some great skiing and riding.

Here is to a Happy and Healthy New Year and 2014 for all of our guests and all of our staff.  Thank you for all that you do to make Okemo the resort to ski and ride.

Let me know how we are doing.  Email at bschmidt@okemo.com
