2020-21 Operating Plan
Ski season is almost upon us and we are so excited. Although this winter will be a different winter, we are confident with your cooperation it's going to be a great one for all of us!
In order for us to operate as safely as possible for our guests and employees, it's important that we lay down some ground rules.
It's not complicated...
If you're not feeling well or you've been exposed to someone with COVID-19, stay home.
Wear your mask or face covering in the lodge and in lift lines. If you refuse, plan on losing your skiing privileges for the season.
Practice social distancing whenever possible.
Those are the basics.
None of us want to be the reason we don’t have a season.
Showdown will be following these ground rules, as well as state of Montana guidelines and the guidance set forth by the National Ski Area Association. In addition, Showdown has made operational changes in every department.
State Guidelines
It's worth noting...
An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. By visiting Showdown Montana, you voluntarily assume all risk related to such exposure. You must follow all posted instructions and directions to help minimize the risk of spread of COVID-19. Failure to comply will result is loss of skiing privileges for the season.
Our health and safety policies may be revised at any time & they will be updated on our website accordingly.
We appreciate your cooperation as we all adjust to the new normal.
And don't forget... skiing and riding is the most fun you can have with your mask on. See you on the slopes!
