contest idea for passholders

[ryan944299]

for mark or mary or any management at BC...

 

since there are so many smartasses on these forums that are criticising the way you are running the mountain and the lack of snow and blaming it all on you guys, why dont you have a little contest thing among passholders. have a drawing to pick someone to run the mountain for a day and then they can see that it isnt as easy as they think to run the operations.

 

i think that woudl be a pretty sweet thing to do. who else thinks so too?

hahahhahahhahahhha ive never trashed talked BC.. ive actually always supported them and gave them props for what they are doing with the weather conditions and what not i know they are getting hit the hardest with the bad weather..

 

 

but honestly that has to be one of the dumbest ideas ever!!!!!!

[ryan944299]

that was directed in general, from reading and a few weeks ago ti was real big ppl would always trash the mountains for hte problems

 

 

and stfu i thought it was a pretty kick ass idea

[swdorsey]

im pretty sure that is the worst idea ever. people would die, a million lawsuits would go down, just a bad idea. shame on you.

[ryan944299]

ok and maybe with some limitations and overseeing

 

 

ok fine what about a shadowing day to kinda follow some1 around and see what it takes

This would be an intresting thing to do. However their would be many limitations upon the person who would win this supposed contest. From a public relations stand point its a smart idea and would have validitly in getting certin people to quiet down about 'poor management', however this is not how i feel i think that the management has done everything in their ability to stay open. Lets remember people if their not open their out of work, their just like us they need money too. If this was to be done u'd pretty much have the winner sitting behind a desk being served on for a day and ordering around a personal waiter, you would not acheive what is intended this being someone who runs the mountian. After all they cant have someone who knows nothing and has no qualifycation to runn a ski resort take controll. Over all its a good idea and both sides have their points.

i would turn bear creek into bear mountain (east coast) and i would make it 100% park

How about a mock "run the mountain for a day" where you follow the real people around and make suggestions that can be ignored or used. Then the winner could write a report and put it on BC's website. Maybe they would even run it in the local paper.

Nope.

[BC-Mark]

We have had quite a few people come in and shadow different managers for a day.

Since most of the comments have been directed at snowmaking, maybe we could run a contest that would allow the winner to be a snowmaker for a night.

[sexkitten]

Shadow... that was the word I was looking for. Sounds like a cool idea Mark.

[BC-Mark]

Thanks sexkitten.

If enough people are interested I will talk to Mary tomorrow and get the ball rolling.

[kragan]

What do I have to do to get my hands on the keys to a SnowCat?

[supertrooper12]

well im probobly the most ignorant person here so i vote myself as the winner

[ryan944299]

or some variation of my original idea ...shadowing a snowmaker is a good idea

[swdorsey]

i agree shadow a snowmaker
