Andreas Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 I dont know if this has been brought up before but after goin to blue today and waitin in outrageous lines while season pass holders cut to the front really had me thinkin. Bear should run the same deal wit season pass VIP lines. Also i think we should get more benefits from the season pass other than some 10% off or watever on a tune up. like some discounts on food or some shit. if im gonna drop 305 bills on a pass i shouldnt have to pay 5 bills for some nachos. benefits like these mite sell a couple more passes also. i know i was wishin i had a season pass to blue jus so i wouldnt have to wait 15 minutes in a lift line today Quote
JibHonk Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 We have brought this up a bunch and they offer "VIP" benefits at the end of the year. I would like to see a season pass holders only lot tho Quote

toast21602 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 the idea of the season pass holder lot is a good idea. good thinking. although, i get there early enough to not have to worry about that. Quote
HouseMuzik Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 yeah their benefits for season pass holders seem to be lacking a bit. They have to be making money there.. the least they could do is take care of the people who plunk down a couple hundred a year. I think the Season Pass lot is a really good idea. Quote
Mixilplix Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 They don't make much money off a season pass holder.You may spend $300 some dollars on a season pass, but a family day tripper prolly spends more than that in one day. Quote

HouseMuzik Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 But they get the money in advance from the season passholders and season passholders often bring along non-season passholder friends and relatives..pleasing the season passholders is really important. They're the opinion leaders when it comes to where their friends will go skiing.. exactly. In the long run you will make more profit off the season passholder because of their frequency. Quite a few of us spend a little $$ still while we're there.. and thats on high profit margin items such as food, etc. Quote
boardin_nerd Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 pleasing the season passholders is really important. They're the opinion leaders when it comes to where their friends will go skiing.. Right on... And i do agree about the the pass holder lot. if they had that and no other benifits i would be happy! cuz i often dont get to go till like 4 or something... and by then the lot is fecking fulL!

Andreas Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Posted January 4, 2009 and i was thinkin personal lockers for pass holders. 50 cents may not seem like a lot but it adds up Quote
boardin_nerd Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 and i was thinkin personal lockers for pass holders. 50 cents may not seem like a lot but it adds up x2 your right. 50 cents addds up Quote
JibHonk Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 Or like a seasonal rate for basket check maybe 35 dollars for unlimited access all season Quote
Andreas Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Posted January 4, 2009 Or like a seasonal rate for basket check maybe 35 dollars for unlimited access all season nah the point is that you dont have to pay money for it. complementary for the pass holder. but they could rent out lockers for the season, i dont think i spend 35 on lockers tho.

mollyskeez Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 They don't make much money off a season pass holder.You may spend $300 some dollars on a season pass, but a family day tripper prolly spends more than that in one day. true that. 300 bucks is nothing to bear creek. when you think about it a weekend day pass is what $50? so a season pass is equal to about 6 of those... thats 3 weeks of skiing for me not including weekday nights so in a sense someone that skis/boards as much as me is acutally getting quite the deal with a season pass. passholder lot would be GOLDEN tho.

rastasquid Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 I paid 500 for a pass as Sno, and we get no benefits whatsoever...makes me think why not... I didn't know mountains gave pass holders stuff like skipping lift lines.(not that those ever exist at sno anyway) Quote
Saurus Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 missdemeanor. that has to be one of the illest pics if seen in a while of you and that bear in the sig. i wish i knew that bear was out when i was taking pics Quote

lilpeterr Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 Is that like the white tiger at blue? Quote
JibHonk Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 kind of. haha but our bear lets random people jump over him Quote
mollyskeez Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 thanks.mark took some real nice pics. Quote
boardin_nerd Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 that is so sick! haha! i didnt' know he was out! thats crazy awesome! Quote
First Grade Teacher Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) x2 your right. 50 cents addds up Right on. 2 times to BC with a locker adds up to a buck. That's highway robbery! BC Mark, please address this HUGE problem! Maybe you could reduce the lockers to 45 cents for season pass holders. Edited January 6, 2009 by First Grade Teacher Quote
Saurus Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 Why do people that dont go to bear creek always post useless b/s and clog the threads up in here? Quote
Andreas Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Posted January 6, 2009 my bad, not all of us teach first grade n make mad money Quote
