Ski tour was invigorating


I'd like to thank Kip Nelson and the Honda Ski Tour staff for investing themselves into an event that wasn't only fun and exciting but also uplifting for our community's economy and morale.

After witnessing labor shortages, stagnant visitor numbers, and a dwindling feeling of community, it was a terrific boost to see how much the local core supported the events over the Ski Tour weekend. Main Street looked great, as I can only imagine it looked back in the day, with people everywhere and smiles abundant. Baldy and Dollar both seemed very busy and put together nicely for the on-mountain competitions.

For a first time, I couldn't imagine things going much smoother. I hope we embrace the Ski Tour and what it brought to our little town, so that we may keep a permanent place on its list of host resorts.
