This East Coast Ski Resort Is the Ultimate Getaway for Cozy New England Vibes

“There's something incredibly special about East Coast skiing,” Sarah van Kralingen says. “East Coast mountains are home to a community of dedicated, passionate, and gritty skiers and riders, whose love for the sport is so strong, it doesn’t matter what the weather is, or how many trails a mountain has.”

After all, skiing, as Sarah van Kralingen says, “is more than simply the sensation of sliding on snow. It’s about the people we ski with. It’s a shared experience with the people we love.”

Waterville Valley is on the verge of a new era

“Waterville Valley is home to a thriving community of young athletes, from the BBTS (Black and Blue Trail Smashers) Snowsports Club (one of the oldest ski clubs in the United States) to the Waterville Valley Academy,” Sarah Van Kralingen, the resort’s marketing and communications manager, said. “We hope events like this will inspire and influence aspiring young athletes, demonstrating the phenomenal skill, athleticism and sportsmanship involved in freestyle skiing.”

The “Ski’Clipse” event came about after tickets for Waterville’s viewing party in its mountaintop restaurant sold out within three days, said Sarah van Kralingen, the marketing operations manager for the resort. “On top of that overwhelming demand, we had an influx of guests asking to watch the eclipse on the mountain, even if they weren’t attending the event.”

Internal Communications

It all begins with an idea.

During my time at a major New England ski resort, I collaborated with Senior Management to overhaul company's internal communications protocol:

  • Created employee handbook, including development of company mission statement, established employee expectations, and

  • Created and managed monthly employee newsletters

  • Spearheaded development of employee text notification system


Employee Handbook

MISSION STATEMENT -To re-establish [COMPANY NAME REDACTED] as a leading New Hampshire resort community that fosters an environment of quality recreation and successful commercial enterprise, balancing and respecting the values of its residents, homeowners, and other community stakeholders.


FOUNDATIONS OF EXCELLENCE

  • Have Each Other's Backs - Always speak positively of [COMPANY NAME REDACTED] and act as an ambassador for your workplace – both within the resort and the community. Treat all guests and associates with dignity, integrity, and respect. IN ACTION: Follow the Golden Rule – treat others as you’d like to be treated. Be prepared to job share.

  • Finish What You Started - Finish every project you start. Close the communication loop.

IN ACTION: Follow through on your responsibilities and commitments. If you can’t solve/address the complaint, bring the guest to someone who can.

  • Find A Way To Say YES - Take ownership of a situation by finding the necessary solution. Avoid saying “no” to guests or fellow associates when possible.

IN ACTION: Approach guests before they approach you.Never say to a guest, “I don’t know”. Instead say, “I’m not 100% sure about that, let me find someone who can assist you...”.
