Hospitality for all Alpine Ski Race Workers
|
In the first two weeks: 1273
members, 5600 visits, over 400 guests per night. |
Thanks to well over 30 generous
Sponsors and almost 250 Keg O' Beer Sponsors, Weasel House is a huge
success. Since opening night, the place has been
humming.
Neither damp weather, the exhausting work of the first week of setup nor the soft snow setbacks facing the opening races dampened the enthusiasm of the Alpine Race Workers who have walked the walk to Weasel House every night. As the weather improved in the second week to discuss their days on the track, to make new acquanitances and to renew old friendships.
Weasel
House is located on
Lake Placid Road in Creekside, near the 2010 Alpine Skiing
venue. It is a 5-minute walk from the Sea-to-Sky Hwy.
Feb
12 held a special moment as many Weasel Workers gathered in Weasel
House to watch the Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games
on our three high-def screens and overhead projector. It was
a
moment of pride for all Canadian race workers.
The
forty-two Canadian
Flag banners
that decorate Weasel House each display the name of a different
Canadian ski club. With the help of BC Alpine, these banners
were
sent to the respective ski clubs where they were signed by junior ski
racers, complete with greetings and good wishes to the members of our
Canadian Alpine Ski Team. We will return the flags to the
clubs
after the close of the Paralympics.
Three separate bars provide beer on tap, as well as red and white wine and our intrepid entrepeneur, Peter Allan and his team operate a shop that offers Weasel Wear, toques, hand-made etched beer glasses and mugs, T-shirts, Weasel Pins and other items of interest to our members.
