Organizing, coordinating, and producing a World Cup ski race requires a massive ensemble of people, around 700 to be exact. On Episode 3 of the Killington Download podcast we meet Katrina Ammer, (4:50) the conductor who sets the tempo and unifies the team around a common goal - make the Killington Cup the best it can be for athletes and spectators alike. We also learn why her Russian still isn’t all that good despite living in Sochi, Russia for two-and-a-half years, and how she got her start in the snow business working in a ski shop.
Then we check back in with Mike Solimano, (33:45) President and General Manager of Killington Resort, to find out the origins of “Positive Snow Control” and if he thinks Mikaela Shiffrin will make it a perfect 5 for 5 at the Homelight Killington Cup on November 28, 2021.
