Bob Bourquard, Sales Executive of Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort, Oregon, received the Far West Ski Association’s Bill Mackey Award for outstanding service to the skiing public by a ski area employee. This award was presented at the annual FWSA Convention in Ogden. Mt. Bachelor is one of the largest ski resorts in the Pacific Northwest. Bob Bourquard, well known to many of us as “group sales guy,” brings together the Mt. Bachelor staff and resort lodging partners to ensure that ski clubs and councils have truly great and memorable ski trips! In 2008-2009, Bob was the first recipient of the Mt. Bachelor Progressive Award – an award given to an individual or team at Mt. Bachelor who has provided the “best group experience”. Here are some direct quotes from people who have been on a few of those trips: “The secret to Mt. Bachelor is in the people! For five days, we had the full attention of the Mountain Hosts all day long. Mt. Bachelor’s attention to detail with our club was beyond anything we had previously experienced. Signs welcomed us all over the mountain. Mt. Bachelor is really BIG when it comes to making a club feel welcome and special.” (Fran L. SLO Skiers Club, CA). “The Texas Ski Council Winter Shootout Week was a complete blast! Mountain Ambassadors skied with us all week. All the details from arrival, mountain picnic, race day, hospitality night, day of sightseeing, awards dinner, Super Bowl party and club party night were planned with great detail by Bob Bourquard, Mt. Bachelor and Sunriver Resort.” (Texas Ski Council Newsletter, TX).
