Warming, The Net, Solutions On Tap For Symposium Session

By Craig Altschul
September 07, 2007

The first-ever Fall Forum of the Mountain Travel Symposium will cram a huge amount of info into its one-day format Tuesday, Oct. 2 at Breckenridge. Keynoter is Paul Goodloe, an avid skier and snowboarder, who is a meteorologist on The Weather Channel's Evening Edition.

Goodloe will discuss how he believes global warming is linked to snow episodes such as last winter's blizzard that brought Denver's airport to a standstill. He'll explain how mountain climates are impacted right now and what he predicts the impact will be on the mountain travel industry.

The session includes an update on the upcoming season's reservation status from Ralf Garrison of Mountain Travel Research Program, and an assessment of the airline industry's changing capacities and booking trends from Mike Boyd of Boyd Aviation.

Four workshops are offered including "Creating Buzz and Booking Business" with Erik Dyce of Red Rocks and Denver Theaters and Arenas; "Increasing Your Web Return On Investment - Now!" led by Mountain News' Chad Dyer and a panel of other experts; "Sales And Marketing Down The Home Stretch," with Scott Bunce of Epiphany Hospitality; and NCR Broadcasting's Tim Brown leading a session on "Local Marketing And Media."
