2018 SESSION HIGHLIGHTS:

RISK MANAGEMENT: Procedures for opening, closing, and testing will be examined with experts from Safehold Special Risk and Willis, as well as ASDA attorneys. How do you test? How do you train to test? What should and shouldn't be included in your logs? We will examine the good, the bad, and the ugly through roundtables and mock depositions. 

ONE-ON-ONE COACHING: Campers who are looking to sharpen their operator skills will have the opportunity to schedule multiple hours of operator time in one of the 14 cats with our teams of skilled on-hill coaches to refind their building techniques. 

PARK MANAGEMENT & PLANNING: Campers will experience a deep dive into post-season assessment and pre-seaon planning for budgeting, staffing, fleet maintenance and management, and events. Attendees will develop strategic checklists to prepare for the season ahead.

FLEET & SNOWDEPTH TECHNOLOGY: Advances in technology are changing the way terrain parks are built, groomed, and managed. It gives operators and managers more accuracy, accountability, and efficiency. In the classroom and in demos on-hill, we will take a closer look at all the technologies and tools available.
