I did confirm with Pats that the discounts are ok for holiday's as well. They are happy that they are being used. I got to meet Bertie and Lori at Pats last monday and they were very cordial and glad to be working with us. They also said on google searches they are doing bring our discussions about the discounts up. Win, win here.

Used a coupon on President's Day...ran into a few questions but I ultimately got the discount. Believe I brought the coupon in before Bob did.

Main hope is that they bring these back next year, especially for night skiing...just keep up the good words.

I can also confirm that they accept the coupon for family/children. They allowed me to redeem one for myself, and one for my son this afternoon. :-D

Made meh a happy camper.

I have been in contact with Pats about next year. Probably will get more into it after Season end. Use the coupons.

Easier to show the value when we show up. Thankx to all who have taken advantage of them.

I've used the Pats coupon once...heading up there tonight as well.
Can't beat $18 for a night lift ticket...:)

Okay, I feel stupid asking this but....where do you find the Pat's coupon? I'm not seeing it?? We don't really want to buy a whole pack of tickets, we'd just like to do a one nighter/day to check out the area......

Thank you, because I wasn't finding this on the other link. Can I just print this and clip it to use?

Exactly. I've also used one copy of it for each of us that went for a total of 4 coupons, but I needed to have 4 copies of the coupon onhand, 2 for the adults, 2 for the kids.

Just a quick follow-up here. Who used these discounts? Any issues? Did everyone that requested a SugarCard receive their voucher? Remember, it's a lifetime arrangement so even if you don't use it this season, you should try to get one.

I can't speak for the SugarCard, as I just ordered mine to have it at your suggestion. :)

However, the Pat's Peak coupons where well used. I used at least 5 of them this year. Not only where they incredibly friendly when I used them, they where good for per person, so three of my family went, and they gladly accepted one for each person, including the kids.

Suggestion. I'm not sure what kind of reselling programs other mountains have, but Crotched allows clubs to sell season passes. Any chance of getting a discount via some of those programs? I know Crotched gives clubs the ability to sell passes, and kicks back 7%, and gives you a custom page off of their own shopping page. I can get more information if you'd like.

I got the Sugarcard in January when I skied there. I'm holding it close. I'll be back up this week.

Almost made it to Pats with my littlest and would have used it if she hadn't bailed.

Thanks again.

I''ll pop in here out of turn. Greg can speak for himself. The deals orignally were started slow with a few select resorts that were willing to work with us. (accept we were on a learning curve.)

This stuff takes alot of time and there is a ballance between advertising , benefits to Az and its member and resorts. (Not to mention liability)
I will say attempts to expand this have and are been discussed, but in private until solid workable things happen. Small steps.

Imput is appreciated. Getting it to work depends on time and who want to do the the work. Anything further probably would be a summer/ fall project. Using the discounts in a nice fashion gives your request/suggestion a friendly ear at minimal..

I redeemed my AZ voucher for a free Sugarcard the one day I did ski at SB last week; very smart idea. And I got a $49 lift ticket for a weekend (Sunday) ticket. $49 is decent for a weekend day pass, especially at a place like SB.

What's better is that I don't have to go to any more ticket windows when I go there...the Sugarcard is for life, and as long as you keep the CC data current, all you have to do is gear up and go to the lift...the first time they scan you your CC is hit with the charge and off you go.

Like I said, this is a very smart idea.
