It’s the first of the May and I have returned from Moab with more snow on the ground then when I left! After some great mountain biking and camping I’m ready to get the season started. The staff is hired and ready to work. Over the past month or two I’ve spent a fair amount of time going over applications and interviewing possible employees. Unfortunately, we only have three returning employees from the past season so I had many positions to fill. The new hires range from long time Vail residents to first year newbies to the valley looking to see how amazing this area can be in the summer. Our new and returning employees will start on Monday morning with training and retraining and getting acquainted with the shop. It’s our goal to create a team atmosphere and have everyone cross trained on several pieces of equipment. This all starts on the first day. We’ll spend some time getting to know one another. We will also go over every job assignment and piece of equipment in the shop. With the weather being uncooperative there will be plenty of time for in shop training. Looking ahead to later in the week the weather starts to look better and should be able to begin clean up after the long winter.
