We stili need to decide how far back we' would:1i,k.e to see the fence built, but becaw~e of our good relations with Wally Alves it is my preference that we not decide that until after the building is gone, the foundation filled, and the property's topography is known., Wally has not indicated any problem with waiting, although he'd like to know sOQn.

Fraser Valley Chamber of Commerce (WPFVCC) and addresses our stakeholders who are made up of the members of the Chamber, the citizens and officials of the Towns of Winter Park and Fraser, and the Grand County community at large, The purpose of this report is to update our stakeholders on the progress made by the Chamber during 1995 and to outline our goals and objectives for 1996. The following is an executive summary of the full report covering the major areas of our activity within the Chamber. Business Office and Visitor Center Operations . The Business Office staff occupied new quarters in June, followed by the opening of the new Visitor Center over the weekend on July 8th. . The Chamber offices and Visitor Center are a great improvement in terms of efficiency and include a new phone system, a network computer system and office systems. . The new Visitor Center is extremely well located and offers an attractive setting to service our visitor clientele. The staff estimates that the number of visitors stopping at the new Visitor Center has doubled from our previous location. . The Visitor Center staff is working to create new services and other means of promoting our member businesses. These include historical exhibits, new menu and lodging guides and directories, community bulletin boards, expanded brochure racks and kiosks, and a phone board (or some other technology) for direct access to members. Membership . The total membership in the Chamber increased from approximately 240 at the start of 1994 to approximately 260 by August of last year. . As of August 1995, membership now stands a 30 I, our first time crossing this threshold. . We are looking to expand membership services in the coming year including conducting ancl publishing a compensation survey; publishing of a new and updated Visitor Directory of members; improvements to the newsletter; polling of member through a survey on special events; creation of a visitor database and a lead generation and referral system for members; improvements to the quality, content and fellowship of the monthly Chamber luncheons; and publication of a new relocation guide and community profile. 1 ýÿ - - ------- ------- ------ . . . Marketing and Public Relations . The 1995 expenditures for marketing and public relations (excluding special events) totals approximately $260,000. These funds are generated primarily from a Y2 of one percent sales tax in the Town of Winter Park, along with vendor fees from the Town of Fraser and grants from the Town of Fraser and the Grand County Tourism Board. . The portion of the sales tax in the Town of Winter Park dedicated to marketing will "sunset" next year unless renewed by the voters of the Town of Winter Park in the spring election. This will be a critical issue of importance to the Chamber and our membership, . The Marketing Council, a Chamber committee, has met in a retreat to plan for the 1996 marketing campaign. During the course of this retreat, the Marketing Council created a mission statement which is intended to support the overall mission statement of the Chamber: "It is the mission of the Marketing Council to position and promote Winter Park and the Fraser Valley as a diverse mountain vacation destination through a coordinated spring, summer and fall marketing campaign" . To focus marketing and public relations efforts, the Marketing Council established the following positioning statement: "The Winter Park/Fraser Valley offers an atmosphere that is unique among Colorado resorts. With a local culture that is informal and friendly, the community sets itself apart from other resorts by being unpretentious, less commercialized, and an affordable vacation value in a more relaxed environment. The Valley offers an abundance of activities, experiences, and special events for the family, the outdoors person, and resort vacationer. Winter Park and the Fraser Valley are central to other sightseeing attractions such as Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand Lake, and other resorts. " . To fulfill the above mission and positioning statements, the Marketing Council conducts research into the origin, characteristics and demographics of our visitors and then creates and implements a comprehensive marketing plan targeting key feeder markets using varied marketing efforts, This marketing plan includes the creation of collateral materials; creation and placement of advertising in media within our targeted feeder markets; distribution of our collateral materials through direct mail, advertising response fulfillments, trade shows, brochure distribution services and locations, and other means; and a public relations effort intended to attract the interest of travel writers and positive media coverage in front range and key feeder markets, . The 1995 marketing effort has been extremely effective, distributing nearly 325,000 copies of our Summer Vacation Planner. Advertising response fulfillments have increased more than seven percent above our projections and ten percent ahead of 1994 results. 11 ýÿ . . . The 1996 campaign will build on the successful collateral pieces created in 1995 including the Summer Vacation Planner, Visitor Directory and Mountain Bike Trail Map. The 1996 marketing campaign will focus an increased effort on direct mail along with the successful distribution channels utilized in the 1995 campaign Special Events . The special events calendar for 1995 has been virtually full through our primary summer season and continued through Fallfest over the weekend of September 9th and 10th. . Special events, including those currently staged by the Chamber and those which have been spun off from the Chamber, have grown in the number of events being held, the number of participants and the quality of the events, . The expenditures for special events in 1995 total approximately $70,000, of which half will be funded through revenues from the events themselves and through grants from the Town of Fraser and the Grand County Tourism Board. . The goals and objectives of the Chamber Board for 1996 support the continued expansion of special events and the integration of the special events effort into the comprehensive marketing plan. Winter Park Music. Inc. (WPM!) . WPMI is a subsidiary of the Chamber charged with putting on varied musical events in the Fraser Valley, Though WPMI does not stage (or benefit from) the two-day American Music Festival, WPMI plays a role as the community liaison in planning for this event which attracted record crowds to the Valley this season. . For 1995, WPMI independently promoted and produced its first two concerts, a jazz concert on July 8th and a combined concert of rhythm and blues, and country, on August 19th. These concerts served as an important training ground which will allow WPMI to expand this "Music at the Park" concert series in 1996 and beyond, . Plans already underway for 1996 call for a continuation of the two-day American Music Festival under the auspices of a major promoter. As a result of the experience gained this year, WPMI is committed to bringing back the two-day Winter Park Jazz Festival and will promote a major act in a one-day concert. In addition, WPMI will stage three free concerts during the 1996 summer season. . The November election in Grand County will include a Cultural Facilities District as ballot issue number 100. This measure would increase sales taxes county wide by two tenths of one percent (.2 % or two cents on every $10 purchase) and would provide a 111 ýÿ ,-- . . permanent funding source for WPM I along with the Grand County Historical Association, the Grand Lake Historical Society, the Grand Lake Area Arts Council and the Grand County Community Concert Association. Finance . The Chamber's annual budget in 1995 totaled approximately $500,000"a relatively small amount compared with competitive resort chambers. Of this total budget, approximately half is generated through sales tax revenues from the Town of Winter Park and is restricted to use for marketing, public relations and special events. The expenses for the business office and visitor center operations equal approximately $200,000 out of the total budget and are funded primarily through member dues and vendor fees from the Town of Winter Park, . An audit of the Chamber's financial statements for 1994 reflected an unqualified opinion regarding the Chamber's accounting practices and financial statements. Administration . The Chamber staff totals 12 people including seven members of the visitor center staff, The Executive Director of the Chamber is Steve Mikol. Catherine Ross is Director of Special Events; Stephanie McCracken is Director of Marketing and Public Relations; Jack O'Shea is Business Manager; and Patti Stanaway is Membership Services Director. Jane Kehl has recently been promoted to the position of Visitor Center Coordinator and is responsible for two full time and four part time visitor center staff members. . The Chamber Board is made up of ten volunteers elected by the membership., The Board met on June 27 in a planning retreat to establish the mission statement of the Chamber and goals and objectives for 1996. The mission statement and goals are outlined below: Mission Statement "It is our mission to ensure a high quality of life in the Fraser Valley by promoting year- round business opportunities and responsible economic development." Long Term Goals . Foster communities of interest to focus resources and encourage communication and collaboration between or among diverse geographic areas .

Promote the benefits of a coordinated summer season to local businesses v ýÿ -------- ------ . . To the Stakeholders of the Winter Park/Fraser Valley Chamber of Commerce: This report has been prepared by the Board of Directors and staff of the Winter Park! Fraser Valley Chamber of Commerce (WPFVCC) and addresses our stakeholders who are made up of the members of the Chamber, the citizens and officials of the Towns of Winter Park and Fraser, and the Grand County community at large. The purpose of this report is to update our stakeholders on the progress made by the Chamber during 1995 and to outline our goals and objectives for 1996. This report on the Chamber covers the major areas of our activity including Business Office and Visitor Center operations, membership, marketing and public relations, special events, Winter Park Music Inc., finance, and administration, The Chamber's report is as follows: Business Office and Visitor Center Operations 1995 was a year of great transition and accomplishment for the Chamber as we planned and implemented our move to a new building on Highway 40 in downtown Winter Park. This process involved an extensive amount of work by every member of our staff as we planned and then managed the renovation of our business office space, worked with the Town of Winter Park to plan and implement the renovation of the Visitor Center space, equipped the Visitor Center space for servicing our customers, and then successfully completed our move during the middle of our peak season. During the course of this work we have also leased and installed a sophisticated new telephone system, converted existing hardware and installed new hardware and software to upgrade our computer system to a Local Area Network (LAN), and purchased and installed new office systems in the building. The results of this effort have been staggering in terms of the efficiency of our Business Office and the volume of visitors being handled through the Visitor Center. The fonner Business Offices of the Chamber were extremely inefficient in terms of space, furnishings and equipment. As a result, three members of the business office staff worked primarily out of home offices and the two other members of the Business Office staff shared one cramped office and a single, older computer. The Chamber's business manager, responsible for the accounting and financial statements of the Chamber, and the Chamber's Executive Director did not even have computers, With new offices and systems, the members of the Business Office staff are now working in the Chamber building and are far more effective in fulfilling their numerous responsibilities, The Chamber staff had known intuitively that visitor counts would rise dramatically in our new location. This is obvious due to a prominent and attractive building on Highway 40, a dramatic change from dated offices two blocks off the highway and behind the town parking garage. Internally, we had always predicted a 40 percent increase in the volume of visitors we would service. Though there is no way of accurately measuring the visitor count, it is obvious that we have more than doubled the visitors we are servicing in our new location, Now, we are constantly crowded with visitors seeking information about lodging, dining, shopping and activities in our community. We are now representing the tourism market and the community with a showplace that is light, airy, efficient and reflective of the market and mountain environment in which we live and work. We are able to be far better ambassadors representing 1 ------ - --- -- --- ------ - ----- '. . Fraser Valley businesses and the community at large, To provide better service, we have also extended our hours of operation during the peak seasons, staying open until 7:00 pm where we once closed at 5:00 pm, We have a great staff of visitor center personnel and are pleased to announce the appointment of Jane Kehl, a longtime member of our staff, to the position of Visitor Center Coordinator. To have completed this move required hard work by a very large number of people in the Town of Winter Park, on the Chamber staff, and among the Chamber members who contributed to this year long project. Special thanks go to the Town Council of Winter Park for funding the acquisition and renovation of the building and to Daryl Shrum, Mark Marchus, Tom Russell and the public works staff for their long efforts to complete the construction and landscaping of the building. Every member of the Chamber staff contributed greatly to this project including Patti Stanaway whosupervised the superb design efforts in creating the Visitor Center facilities; Jack 0' Shea who supervised the construction, accounting and numerous other tasks; Catherine Ross who was responsible for purchasing of the highly efficient and cost effective furnishings and who worked with member art galleries to provide us with a rotating exhibit of art in the building; and Stephanie McCracken who was our designated designer in working with everyone to create and coordinate such beautiful interiors. Among the many members who contributed to this project, we thank Les Watkins for his construction management and carpentry work on behalf of both the Chamber and the Town of Winter Park; Larry Duane at Norwest Bank for facilitating and providing the unique financial structure which allowed us to purchase phone systems, computer systems and furnishings; Michael Mark of Design Communications Inc. for installing our new phone system; Pete Strohecker of Micro Chips and Salsa for his network installation and systems support; Whizbang, Inc. for the wiring and cabling of the building for phones and computers; and the numerous other members who were vendors of the goods and services necessary to finish this project. To the members, we thank you for your support of this vital new component of our marketing and services. We also urge you to rethink the ways that we can promote your businesses to the volume of visitors that we are now handling, You should particularly consider both the content and numbers of brochures you provide us for distribution through the Visitor Center, We also urge you to carefully consider your response to the request for an update to the listings to be included in the new Visitor Directory. The forms for updating the directory are now being distributed and we remind you of the importance of your timely response and urge you to remember this revised directory will only be as accurate as the information that your provide to us. Also remember that, though it is the winter season that is approaching, this Visitors Directory will be used throughout next summer as well; your listings should anticipate year round activities and services. The Visitor Center staff will be working hard in the coming months to create other new services and other means of promoting our members. These will include a new menu guide for restaurants, separate lodging and bed and breakfast guides, new art displays, larger bulletin boards to promote events and entertainment activities, and expanded kiosks at Winter Park Resort. We are also evaluating the various technologies that would allow us to install a phone board for direct access to members and/or touch screen computer information kiosks. 2 ýÿ -- ~- . . The Chamber is working with the Colorado State Historical Society and the Grand County Historical Association to plan and install a state-funded historical marker, hopefully prior to the 1996 summer season, This four-panel exhibit focusing on the history of the Valley will stand on the grounds of the Visitor Center. With additional highway signage directing people to this exhibit, we can expect another significant boost in visitors stopping at our new location. Membership At the beginning of 1994, the total membership in the Chamber stood at approximately 240 and by August of last year had grown to approximately 260. In the past twelve months, Chamber membership has continued this growth to a point where, as of August 1995, membership now stands at 301. This is our first time in surpassing the level of 300 plus members, a goal we set for the Chamber over the past six months. This membership level reflects a continuation of the growth of business in the Fraser Valley and a renewal of the support for the Chamber by the business community. As we enter a new business year, the Board has established a goal of increasing the benefits of membership, a factor in what we hope will be a continuation of the growth in the number of members. Plans for this fall and the year ahead include conducting and publishing a compensation survey; publishing a membership directory; improvements to the newsletter; conduct of member surveys on special events; creation of a visitor database and a lead generation and referral system for members; continued improvements in the quality, content and fellowship of the monthly luncheons; and the publication of a new relocation guide and community profile. We will continue to seek new ways of serving our members and certainly welcome the input of our stakeholders. In the meantime, we appreciate the support of members old and new. Marketing and Public Relations This past year has been a breakthrough year for the marketing and public relations efforts of the WPFVCC. This marketing effort is directed by the Marketing Council, a committee of the Chamber. This marketing effort is planned and implemented through the standing sub- committees of the Marketing Council and through the work of Stephanie McCracken, the Chamber's Director of Marketing and Public Relations. The marketing and public relations effort is funded by restricted funds generated primarily through a Y2 of 1,0 percent sales taxes collected in the Town of Winter Park, Other sources of restricted funds come from vendor fees in the Town of Fraser, from grants from the Town of Fraser and Grand County Tourism Board, and from income generated by some of the special events. By year end, the total expenditures for marketing and public relations will equal approximately $260,000 (excluding special events which are discussed separately). This amount includes approximately $35,000 of expenditures carried over from the 1994 budget and reflecting a portion of the 1995 marketing campaign which was, by necessity, funded toward the end of 1994, A critical issue facing the Chamber and the business community during 1996 will be a vote in the spring election of the Town of Winter Park to renew the sales tax used to fund the Chamber's marketing efforts, This sales tax will otherwise "sunset" in July on 997 unless it is again instituted by a vote of the citizens of the Town of Winter Park. Since this issue will stand 3 . . on its own as a ballot issue (that is it will not be connected with another sales tax issue of the Town of Winter Park), we expect close scrutiny of the uses of these funds and the effectiveness of this marketing effort. The campaign to support this ballot issue will be among our most important activities of the coming year. The Marketing Council recently met in a retreat to begin planning for the 1996 marketing and public relations effort. Perhaps the best way of identifying the role of the Marketing Council is to present both the mission statement and market position which the council has established to direct its work in the coming year. The mission statement of the Marketing Council was created in response to that of the Chamber which states that: "It is our mission to ensure a high quality of life in the Fraser Valley by promoting year-round business opportunities and responsible economic development." In support of the Chamber's mission, the Marketing Council has established the following mission statement: "It is the mission of the Marketing Council to position and promote Winter Park and the Fraser Valley as a diverse mountain vacation destination through a coordinated spring, summer and fall marketing campaign." To further focus marketing and public relations efforts, the Marketing Council established the following Positioning Statement: "The Winter Park/Fraser Valley offers an atmosphere that is unique among Colorado resorts. With a local culture that is informal and friendly, the community sets itself apart from other resorts by being unpretentious, less commercialized, and an affordable vacation value in a more relaxed environment. The Valley offers an abundance of activities, experiences, and special events for the family, the outdoors person, and resort vacationer. Winter Park and the Fraser Valley are central to other sightseeing attractions such as Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand Lake, and other resorts." With the extensive marketing efforts and success of Winter Park Resort in promoting the winter season, and the amenity base supporting winter recreation and tourism, it is the role of the Marketing Council to promote tourism in the spring, summer and fall. To fulfill this mission, the Marketing Council is in the second year of conducting research efforts to identify the origin of our summer and shoulder season visitors, the demographics of our visitors, the reasons they visit this market, and the characteristics of their travel and visit to the Fraser Valley. In response to this research, the Marketing Council creates and then implements a comprehensive marketing plan intended to deliver our message to the target market through varied advertising, direct marketing and public relations efforts. The Marketing Council then creates collateral materials to be used in direct mail campaigns, for distribution in widely dispersed feeder ,markets, in fulfillment of responses to an advertising and media campaign, and for distribution in the Valley. The three primary pieces developed by the Marketing Council for the 1995 campaign were the Summer Vacation Planner, the Visitors Directory and the Mountain Biking Trail Map. The Chamber printed 325,000 of the Summer Vacation Planner, an envelope-sized piece that provides a comprehensive overview of the activities and events available in the Valley. Of these, virtually ever copy has been distributed through trade shows, direct mail, and through distribution centers along the front range, at all of the Colorado State Welcome Centers, in locations along the main travel routes throughout Colorado and in primary Midwestern and southwestern feeder markets, 4 ýÿ . . The Mountain Biking Trail Map has been a huge success as a collateral piece, generating a high level of interest through advertising responses, direct marketing and distribution efforts including advertising response fulfillments, distribution through front range bike shops, and local distribution, This piece has really helped the Chamber and its marketing council to promote our campaign to identify Winter Park and the Fraser Valley as "Mountain Bike Capital U.S.A." The Fraser River Trail has also served to put us on the mountain biking map for families seeking a fun, safe and scenic ride with smaller children, for beginning mountain bikers, and for runners and in-line skaters. Another effort in support of mountain biking was our work with Susan Dibiase, a local resident who is a downhill mountain biking specialist on the Evian cycling team, Susan appeared with Chamber staff members at the Evian Ride for the Wild fundraising ride in, Castle Rock in early June, More than 5,000 participants were at this event and Winter Park was virtually alone as a resort promoting mountain biking. This was one of our first opportunities to distribute the Mountain Biking Trail Map and gave us our first indication of just how successful this map would be. The recent King of the Rockies Off-Road Stage Race and Mountain Biking Festival illustrates another successful use of Susan Dibiase. This race attracted 615 entrants this year, than double the entrants from 1995 and a record for this event in its 10th year. As a part of the King of the Rockies, Susan Dibiase hosted two successful clinics and trail rides that were extremely well attended. The Marketing Council has also been responsible for developing and placing advertising in print media within front range and our primary feeder markets, The budget for advertising was approximately $122,000. By year end, this advertising will have generated approximately 25,000 direct responses in the form of labels used to mail packages including our collateral pieces. This level of responses represents a nearly 7 percent increase over our projections and a better than 10 percent increase over the results in 1994. Adding to the effectiveness of this advertising effort were the new systems for response fulfillment put in place by the Visitor Cente'r staff, who are responsible for processing these responses. This year, the Chamber staff was able to establish a virtually perfect record of turning around all response fulfillments within three days of their arrival in our offices. This was accomplished using bulk mailing procedures which reduced the cost of postage by better than 50 percent from our budget. This 1995 response fulfillment effort compares very favorably to the failed effort in 1994 when these responses piled up and mailings were often delayed by several weeks or more. The responses to the above fulfillments and the many thousands of other requests for information received at the Chamber throughout the year are always high priority for the Visitor Center staff. The responses fulfilled by the Chamber and a similar number of information requests fulfilled through Winter Park Central Reservations always include copies of the Grand County Tourism Board's brochure on the activities and events of the County. This is a part of a sincere effort by the Chamber to work closely with the Grand County Tourism Board to promote the County as a whole, recognizing that any travel to this region will benefit the Fraser Valley along with other communities and businesses in Grand County, We will continue to seek means of improving this marketing partnership. S ----- ---- . . . The public relations efforts of Stephanie McCracken are closely coordinated with those of Winter Park Resort. These public relations efforts focus on attracting and then hosting individual travel writers, generating positive media coverage in front range markets and in our feeder markets and the staging of media events. A component of this public relations effort is the production of press kits which are comprehensive packages of marketing materials, press releases and other information which are then distributed in cooperation with Winter Park Resort to over 700 qualified travel writers. Stephanie McCracken also works closely with Catherine Ross, the Chamber's Director of Special Events, to promote concerts and other special events held throughout the summer and fall. Their work together on this effort includes advertising placed locally and in front range markets, the development of posters and flyers publicizing the events and in public relations efforts. The public relations effort this year was complicated by the Berthoud Pass closure originally scheduled for the period from mid May until early June and delayed by weather until the heart of our peak season in the last three weeks of July. Through aggressive public relations work locally and along the front range, and through effective, regular communication with the Colorado Department of Transportation, we were able to minimize the impact of this closure on area businesses and avoid what might have resulted in a serious impact on tourism in the Fraser Valley, The Marketing Council is now planning a 1996 campaign that will build on the successes of the 1995, marketing effort. One goal will be to fine tune the extraordinary collateral pieces developed during this year's marketing campaign. This will allow the Chamber to focus more effort and financial resources on direct marketing efforts through development of our databases, greater utilization of direct mail as a means of contacting our target audience, the development of marketing blitzes in support of trade show efforts, and direct marketing efforts on behalf of mountain biking. Over the next three months, as the Chamber and its committees go through the budgeting and planning process, the Marketing Council will be producing a comprehensive marketing plan which is driven by the mission and positioning statements already discussed. The Marketing Council's recent retreat has resulted in the restructuring of several of the committees which are the working groups responsible for both the creation of the marketing plan and its implementation. Previously, a Collateral Committee was responsible for a wide range of matters that included not only the development of collateral pieces but their dis'tribution through trade shows, direct mail and response fulfillment. As a result of the retreat, and reflecting the interest in expanding the use of direct mail, there will now be a Direct Mail Committee that will also consider other direct marketing opportunities including the emerging technology of the World Wide Web and Internet. A separate Trade Show Committee has also been established to plan and coordinate this important direct marketing effort. This committee will also consider other marketing opportunities including sales blitzes which may be held in conjunction with the numerous trade shows in which we participate in key feeder markets, The members of the Marketing Council are a hardworking group representing some of the best marketing minds in the Valley. As such, they should be recognized and applauded for their successful efforts in promoting tourism in Winter Park and the Fraser Valley. The Chairman of the Marketing Council is Paul Lewis of Iron Horse Resort. Other members are Nick Teverbaugh 6 ýÿ -- -------------.-- -------- -- -- . '. representing the Town of Winter Park, Nat Havens representing the Town of Fraser, Chris Seeman representing the Chamber Board, Paula Sheridan of Winter Park Resort, Jack Van Horn of Home James and Mad Adventures, Tim Johnson of Iron Horse Resort, Jay DeKovic of Ski Depot Sports, and Steve Bromberg of SilverCreek Ski Area. Steve also sits on the CTT A Board, one of two people (including Jim Bain of the Ski Train) representing business interests in Grand County on this important State tourism board. Dave Smith of Smith-Curry Communications was formerly a member of the Marketing Council. He remains a hardworking participant in the activities of the Marketing Council through the excellent work that he and Martin Curry have accomplished in creating the collateral materials, advertising copy, posters and other material used in the marketing campaign. The other person who should be applauded for his efforts is Kent Meyer who recently resigned from Marketing Council as the Chamber Board's representative and was replaced by Chris Seeman. Kent has been a very effective member of the Marketing Council and will continue to help in the promotional efforts of the Valley through his continuing role as a member of the Grand County Tourism Board and as a continuing member of the Chamber's Board, Special Events The hiring of a Director of Special Events in 1994 was an important part of the successful effort to establish special events as an integral part of the marketing effort undertaken by the Chamber. As a result of Catherine Ross's very hard work and her ability to draw on the support of the community in staging these events, the number of events have grown, the quality of these events have improved dramatically, the number of participants has grown, and we have invested in development of future events. The special events calender has been virtually full during this summer season and will continued through Fallfest over the weekend of September 9th and 10th. In fa~t, there have been only two weekends all summer when there was not an event being held in the Valley. Looking back on this summer season, we can witness the success of the July 4th Run for Independence on the Fraser River Trail. Catherine was successful in seeking GCTB grants for this race to combine the event into a three-race series in the County. Entrants in this race increased by 40 percent in its second year. The King of the Rockies Off-Road Stage Race was another extraordinarily successful event, more than doubling in attendance to 615 entrants as the event grew to be included in a regional point series, The Saturday stage race was held in town for the first time this year, drawing more than 1,000 people to the new Visitor Center. Other events on this year's calendar included the Family Hike & Bike Festival, another successful year of the American Red Cross Fat Tire Classic, the Fourth of July Celebration (including snow on the passes), the Wine & Food Festival and Beer Garden, the Music in the Park Concert Series, and the coming FallFest as a wrap-up to our season. Though it may be hard to remember back to last winter as we conclude our summer season, we should also remember that we staged a winter carnival after many years of dormancy and expect that several of the events held as a part of SnowFest will be repeated in the coming season. 7 --- ------- -- . . The Chamber has historically given birth to events which, like all children, eventually grow to maturity and go out on their own. Those on the 1995 events calendar included the 22nd Annual Alpine Art, which enjoyed a record year; the 4th Annual Fraser Valley Railroad Days scheduled for September 2nd and 3rd; the two-day American Music Festival which attracted record crowds in its 10th year; and, of course, the weekly High Country Stampede Rodeo, one of the great attractions in the Valley during the summer season. Another great event in attracting people to the Valley goes without a lot of fanfare, This is the Great Western Archery Shootout, an event held in the privacy of Mary Jane which is known mostly to the nearly 1,000 archers who participate, This event is entering its 6th year with a long term commitment to Winter Park and the Fraser Valley and is continuing to experience dramatic growth, Considering the impact of special events on the marketing of the Valley and in the number of people attracted to these events, it is somewhat amazing to consider that the entire budget for special events in 1995 (excluding WPMI) will total just over $70,000. Of this amount, approximately half will have been generated by revenues from the events themselves or through grants from the Town of Fraser and the Grand County Tourism Board. The goals and objectives established by the Chamber Board reflect the support for special events as a part of the Chamber's market effort and the desire to continue the growth in the number and quality of events to be held in 1996 and beyond. These goals and objectives include adding a major new event in 1996 which is consistent with the Chamber's established criteria for quality, success and viability; developing more income producing events; seeking support from other non-profit organizations to sponsor and stage special events; seeking additional sponsorship dollars for special events; and the evolution of Winter Park Music, Inc, as a self- sustaining entity with an expanding calendar of summer concerts and musical events. This is discussed separately below, One of the major changes ahead in 1996 will be the integration of the special events effort into the comprehensive marketing plan, This will allow for even better coordination of the roles of the Chamber's Director of Marketing and Public Relations and the Director of Special Events. This will also make it easier for the Special Events Director to consider the Marketing Council's mission and positioning statements, and to utilize the Marketing Council's research effort in creating special events, This change will further emphasize that special events ,are an important component of the overall marketing effort. The special events role may also become a part of the activities of the Marketing Council through a restructuring of the Special Events Committee and its reporting relationship. Winter Park Music Inc. (WPM!) WPMI is a subsidiary of the Chamber and is responsible for the music festivals which are an important component of the special events calendar. During 1995, WPMI will have staged two Music it the Park concerts including the jazz concert by Guitars and Saxes held on July 8th. This event brought together guitarists Craig Chaquico and Peter White with saxmen Richard Elliott and Warren Hill. The concert was a big success in attracting more than 1,100 concert goers and in serving as a training ground for promoting future events. The second concert in the series will be held on August 19th and will feature rhythm and blues artists NRBQ (which stands 8 ýÿ ---------- . . . for New Rhythm and Blues Quartet) and Jimmie Dale Gilmore, who was twice named Rolling Stone Magazine's Country Artist of the Year. being held on August 19th. These two concerts were made possible by the Chamber Board's decision last year to provide funds for WPMI in order to seed the effort of establishing our own summer concert series. 1995 was a important year in kicking off that effort and in learning what it takes to sponsor and host such events in the future. This investment will payoff in future years as we expand the concert series and increase the number of smaller concerts oriented to Valley residents. In addition to the seed money provided by the Chamber, WPMI was also able to bring in significant sponsorship dollars from Pepsi and Budweiser to help defray the costs of these two concerts. WPM I also sponsored a smaller family concert in conjunction with the Town of Fraser and as the conclusion of a week of music workshops for children in the Fraser Valley Metropolitan Recreation District. This is a model for other similar events which we hope to expand in future years through the auspices of WPMI. Eventually, the Chamber would like to see WPMI (or its successor) handling a county-wide schedule of events which mirrors other resort venues with free or inexpensive events held almost every weekend. It is important to correct a popular misconception that the Chamber sponsors the recently concluded two-day American Music Festival. In fact, though the Chamber gave birth to this festival, Feyline has been primarily responsible for staging this festival over the past several years and takes all of the extraordinary financial risk as well as the reward for a successful American Music Festival. That does not free WPMI and Winter Park Resort from a lot of hard work to make sure that this festival is a successful part of our special events calendar, is scheduled effectively in conjunction with other special events and is promoted within our marketing plan. Feyline's contract to stage the American Music Festival ended with this year's festival. WPMI is now conducting a review of options for the future of this important event, which may include entering into a new contract with Feyline to continue their promotion of the American Music Festival. To that end, we have distributed survey forms to the entire membership and urge you to give WPMI your input on this festival including the impact on your business and your view of how we can improve the American Music Festival to help your business and community. As we plan for the future of the American Music Festival, we are also planning on the future of our own concert series. The Winter Park Jazz Festival has always been an important part of our summer events calendar and was missed this season. Our hosting of Guitars and Saxes was a test of our ability to stage jazz, though it had to be approached on a smaller scale for this season. As a result of the experience gained this year, the support being expressed among the members, and the financial support of the Chamber and other sponsors, WPMI is committed to bringing back the Winter Park Jazz Festival for 1996. Similarly, we are now in the process of planning the other musical events to be staged next season, a process we hope to conclude in the next month. 9 ------- -- --- ------ . . There is an important opportunity ahead for WPMI to be funded on a permanent basis through a Cultural Facilities District which is going before all Grand County voters this November. Through a two tenths of one percent (.002 percent) sales taxes county wide, the Grand County Historical Association, the Grand Lake Historical Society, the Grand Lake Area Arts Council, the Grand County Community Concert Association, and WPMI would receive funding to expand their important role in preserving historical sites and providing events and attractions for county residents and visitors. This funding mechanism would provide WPMI with approximately $60,000 annually giving us the ability to dramatically expand the number and quality of major concerts and smaller concerts oriented toward locals. Such a funding mechanism would also cause a restructuring of WPMI to focus on broader cultural interest beyond music. The WPMI Board is among the hardest working group of volunteers in the Valley and needs to be recognized for their tireless efforts. Robin Wirsing is President of WPMI. Other board members include Jon De Vos who is Vice President, AI White who is Treasurer, Dave Smith, Cary St. Onge, and Eric Peetz. Mike Repucci also works closely with the WPMI Board representing the interests and role of Winter Park Resort as the concert venue for the American Music Festival and the Music in the Park concert series. Catherine Ross serves as the staff person for WPMI and has done an extraordinary job in this difficult and time intensive role. Finance The annual budget of the WPFVCC totals approximately $500,000, of which approximately half is generated through sales tax revenues from the Town of Winter Park. These sales tax receipts and a smaller contribution through vendor fees from the Town of Fraser are identified as "restricted funds" which are dedicated to marketing and public relations, including special events. These restricted funds are targeted primarily toward marketing of the summer and shoulder seasons through the marketing and public relations effort described earlier. Through these restricted funds the WPFVCC reinvests in excess of 70 cents from every dollar taken in to market our community and provide special events for our guests and residents to enjoy. The operations of the Business Office at the Chamber and the Visitor Center are funded almost entirely by member dues, vendor fees from the Town of Winter Park and other miscellaneous income sources. In 1995, these sources will total approximately $200,000, At the current level of both revenues and expenses, the WPFVCC is a relatively small resort chamber compared with other comparable (and competitive) resort communities. However, we believe that through careful planning and budgeting, and judicious monitoring of expenses, we have been able to deliver a high level of performance. This is evidenced by the quality of the Visitor Center operations, the quality and results of the marketing effort, the strength of the special events schedule, the success of the growing business community in the Fraser Valley, the growth of membership, and numerous other measures of performance, Over the past few months, the WPFVCC concluded an independent audit of our 1994 financial statements. A copy of the financial statements and independent auditor's report as of December 3 I, 1994 is available for review at the Visitor Center or will be forwarded to any 10 ýÿ . . . member upon request. We are pleased to report that this audit reflects that the financial statements, the financial position, and the results of operations and cash flows of the Chamber are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and that the auditor has issued an unqualified opinion regarding the accounting practices and financial statements of the Chamber, Going into 1996, the Business Office of the Chamber will be producing its own financial statements along with financial statements for WPMI, a continuation of its role in accounting for WPMI this year. The 1996 budget of the Chamber will also employ more sophisticated techniques including monthly budgeting detail along with an annual summary for submission to the Towns of Winter Park and Fraser. This budgeting process will allow us to keep better track of actual expenses and revenues versus budget ,in 1996. Administration Steve Mikol is the Executive Director of the WPFVCC and was hired in November to replace Lori Usher, who had served in this position for a short time through August and September of 1994. Lori, in turn, replaced Don Hogan who had left at the end of July last year, As a result of the changes in leadership and the different work styles of the directors, the Chamber staff and the Chamber as a whole went through some additional stress in 1994 and 1995. The Chamber is now looking forward to a year more challenging for its progress on many fronts than for working out the problems related to these changes in administration. The Chamber Board recognizes the hard work and dedication of the staff in keeping up the administration of the Chamber through these difficult transitions in 1994 when three different people held the position of Executive Director and when Greg Foley twice held the position on an interim basis. The Business Office staff of the Chamber includes Jack O'Shea who serves as Business Manager and defacto controller of the Chamber and who has done a great job of growing the membership of the Chamber, Patti Stanaway is Membership Services Director, responsible for scheduling and staging the monthly Chamber luncheons, compiling and publishing the monthly newsletter, recording and preparing minutes of the Chamber Board and Marketing Council meetings, serving as systems administrator for both the phone and computer network, and numerous other support roles and tasks. Catherine Ross serves as Director of Special Events and Stephanie McCracken is Director of Marketing and Public Relations for the Chamber. The Chamber is administered by a ten member Board of Directors elected by the members. The current Board is made up of Jeff Davidson of Hernando's Pizza Pub, Mike Repucci of Winter Park Resort, Sara St. Onge of Winter Park Real Estate, AI White of the Viking Lodge and Ski Shop, Don Woster of Preferred Cleaners, Kent Meyer of Snow Mountain Ranch/YMCA Camp of the Rockies, Melanie Zwick of New York Life, Chris Seeman of The Vintage Resort, Laurie Mosier of Grand County Maintenance, and Tony Allegretti of CMC. Tony Allegretti is a longstanding member of the business community in Winter Park. In conformance with the by laws of the Chamber, he was appointed to the Board in July to fill a vacancy created when Matt Oakley unexpectedly resigned to pursue a new busi'ness venture in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. )1 ------- . . . The officers of the Chamber are Jeff Davidson, President; Mike Repucci, Vice President; Sara St. Onge, Secretary and Treasurer. Greg Foley of Fraser Valley Arctic Cat serves as an advisor to the Board in an ex officio capacity as the past President of the Chamber Board. Chris Seeman represents the Chamber Board on the Marketing Council. To provide guidance for the staff of the Chamber in the coming year, the Board of Directors held a day long retreat on June 27th. This retreat, which was facilitated by G. Winter, first reviewed the accomplishments of the past year and then revisited the Chamber's mission statement before addressing the goals and objectives of the Chamber for the coming year.
