Amanda Peterson

In the 1970s, with no snowmaking equipment at the resort and no budget to market itself, Park City relied on the town’s creative minds to get skiers to town.  One of those was Amanda Peterson who was the first paid chamber director.  In this week’s Park City Story she recounts some of the wacky ways Park City pulled off to generate publicity.
