SAM Magazine—Woodbury, Conn., April 20, 2014—There are still a few spots available for Cutter's Camp at Timberline, Mt. Hood, May 9-13, but registration closes on April 29. Now in its 14th year, Cutter's Camp continues to be the industry's only open-forum educational gathering of terrain park professionals.

Attendees will attend a variety of seminars and workshops on-hill and in the classroom over the weeklong intensive program, including:

• On-hill coaching. Presented by grooming experts from across the US.

• Building and maintaining a high functioning learning park. Presented by Snow Operating

• Take Your Park Management to the Next Level. Presented by Colorado State University.

• Risk Management. Presented by Wells Fargo, Willis Mountainguard and ASDA attorneys.

• Park Tech Talks. Presented by leading builders and designers.

Other sessions include events and competitions, snow science, staff training, guest education, vehicle maintenance, interdepartmental communication and much more.

All this makes Cutter's Camp a smart investment in staff development. “The opportunity to discuss issues with experts and other managers and freestyle terrain staff makes this conference a tremendous resource for our industry,” said one past attendee. And another: “Cutter's camp is unique. No one can come here and leave without learning something. I feel inspired to return to my resorts and start planning for next season.”
