Trustees approve half‑day rental rate and greenlight sponsorship banners at Nordic/Trail Center
Summary
Trustees agreed to allow team sponsorship banners at the Nordic Lodge with uniform size and hanging parameters and approved a 60% half‑day rental rate for the trail center (vote 6‑0) to improve facility utilization.
Trustees discussed and largely endorsed a proposal to allow team sponsorship banners in the Nordic Lodge entrance and approved a trial half‑day rental rate for the Casper Mountain Trail Center.
Mary Schmidt presented a sponsorship banner proposal on behalf of Nordic teams, saying the banners would help raise funds for new uniforms and local team expenses. She told the board the plan was to hang banners in the main entrance where they get the most viewership; trustees debated uniform banner dimensions, mounting fixtures to avoid wall damage, and time limits for display. Trustees favored limiting banners to school‑affiliated teams and nonprofits, using uniform sizes and fixed hooks or grommet hangers, and restricting display to the ski season (roughly mid‑November through late February/early March).
On facility rentals, trustees considered a staff suggestion to add a half‑day (afternoon) rate to increase reservations. The board approved a 60% half‑day rate on a trial basis (vote recorded 6‑0). Trustees asked staff to implement QR code links and clear online/reservation information, to define parameters for when multiple bookings could occur on the same day, and to work with the caretaker on logistics for cleaning and turnover.
Votes at a glance: - Approval of April 9 minutes: motion moved and seconded, passed by voice vote (ayes recorded) during the meeting. - Half‑day rental rate: approved 6‑0 to set a 60% day rate for afternoon reservations on a trial basis.
Next steps: staff will draft banner mounting specifications (sizes, grommet placement and time windows), work with facility staff on implementation, add QR/reservation information to on‑site displays and begin the half‑day reservation option as trialed.
