The ski team shack underwent a facelift yesterday (Thurs 25th Sept) on a sunny day in Parking Lot 1 at Marmot Basin! Needed repairs were made to the building, a new shelf installed, benches painted and the inside swept and washed. The outside was painted and signs will be replaced with the most recent logos soon to complete the new look! Well done, thank you and awesome job to Rick, Patrice, Mike K, Magda and Dan F for all your hard work!
