Thank You STARS

 Hey STARS!

What a *fantastic* day we had at the 7th Senior STARS Clinic! The sun was shining, the snow was perfect, and 47 Seniors showed up to prove that age is just a number when you’re carving up the slopes. Honestly, I think even the mountains were showing off for us.

The conditions were so good, the upper mountain felt like a playground for skiers and snowboarders alike. And let’s just say, after burning those calories, we were *all* ready for the delicious lunch at noon (thanks to Mike, April, and Aaron from the Food and Beverage Department!). It was a delicious way to celebrate the season, with 60 of us devouring food and laughter like it was our job. 

Big shoutout to Michele Roy, VP and CFO for the season pass and 8-hour lift tickets, and Caleb Lee, Director of Ski School for the private lesson and STARS lessons! You two are rockstars, seriously. I’d name more heroes, but then we’d run out of space in this email!

Can you believe it's our 16th year of the program? And guess what? We’ve consistently had around 50 Seniors each week. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like a record-breaking squad to me!

We also welcomed a few new Seniors into the STARS family today, and I made sure our instructors gave them the VIP treatment on the slopes. Spoiler alert: they totally nailed it!

A HUGE thank you to all the STARS and instructors for making this season another win. I’m lucky to be part of this amazing crew. Also, a special shoutout to Rico Hall for the thoughtful gifts—you’re the real MVP.

Mark your calendars! Our last STARS Clinic is next Wednesday, March 26th. Don’t miss it—we’ll save you a seat (and maybe a snack).

See you on the slopes,
