Like an epic powder day, I knew that having Geoff Buchheister at the helm of Whistler Blackcomb wouldn’t last forever. He’s just too good, and was bound to get scooped up or promoted away. I had the pleasure of working with Geoff as co-president of the Whistler Blackcomb Foundation. I will remember him not just for his leadership, hard work, smarts, and core values, but also for being a great guy who gets it. I loved seeing the mountain open a day early for staff this year, even though it meant that I had to wait a day to ski.
On behalf of the board at the Whistler Blackcomb Foundation, I want to thank you for rolling up your sleeves and really working hard to help our community. In just over three years as our co-president, you have made a massive difference. You were never too busy to put us first. Your care for this community was on display every time we met. You helped us navigate through a very challenging time and you will be missed. While I am sad to see you go, I am so grateful that you were here. Aspen just got exponentially better!
