CONGRATULATIONS TO KEN MACK OF LOON mountain, N.H.
2014 I AM A SNOWMAKER WINNER!
The HKD I AM a Snowmaker award recognized six outstanding snowmakers from across the country. These snowmakers were asked to share their story--their hardships, their successes, and what it means to be a snowmaker.
SAM Asked... At what point in your snowmaking career did you have that epiphany and realize "I AM a snowmaker?" What specific challenge or obstacle tested your dedication and determination as a snowmaker and how did you surmount it? The future of the mountain resort industry lies in the hands of the snowmaker--the sky is the limit.
