INDUSTRY EVENTS  Thank you to everyone who participated in the second annual Summer Ops Camp at Jiminy Peak Resort. We look forward to another great program next year! From October 3-5, 2011, SAM Magazine partnered with Jiminy Peak Resort to host the second annual Summer Ops Camp. In all, 55 attendees representing over 25 resorts, along with 21 summer ops suppliers as well as experts from around the country, came together to share ideas, best practices and success stories about the growing opportunities in summer operations at mountain resorts. Group discussions and break-out on-hill sessions covered a variety of topics including mountain bike parks, new trends in summer events, market feasibility, catering to younger kids, ROI, risk management, staff training and more. Camper Testimonials "Absolutely worth the time and effort to get here and participate. You all run a well organized, effective, valuable event." "Very good! Useful information that will help our resort in the future." "Very well-run seminar. SAM is on the pulse of our industry and does its best to cater to our needs." "It was great to interact with other resorts and share ideas and stories." "The mock trial stands out - notably the discussion and Q&A. It focused the group's attention and reminded us that the 'experience' includes safety, education, shared responsibility, etc. that all get incorporated with the fun." "Excellent experience. I walked away with many management ideas." "Awesome! I got so much out of these three days." >> 2011 Summer Ops Video |
