Hey NSers – Having been recently hired as the new Assistant Controller (I am the head accountant) at Mt Hood Meadows Ski Area, I have taken it upon myself to be responsive to the concerns of the Newschoolers community. This username is new, but I have been on Newschoolers for some time and am not the average n00b (I know all about how to get to Chad’s Gap, the way to go about being spancersized and have even been ripped off on some gear I purchased from another member). I was even at the West Coast Session.
Frankly, the best feedback a business can get is that which is acutely negative – those issues are most often the actionable ones. I am fully aware of the complaints with the parks, particularly the size of the jumps, and want to establish a means to get your comments and feedback.
I am extremely vested in this - my office is in the administration building – just below the Vista Lift and I look up at the Superpipe from the window. I have my skis in my office, am going to wear ski gear all winter (to maximize the time on my ride breaks) and will probably ride the parks more days that any other single person, including members of the park crew.
I fully plan on being here at Meadows for many years in the future and really hope that I can ultimately serve as an important resource for the Newschoolers community.
So there it is my fellow Hood Rats, let the flaming begin……
