Changes to SCR Vending
We want to let everyone know that over the coming months, there will be a change in our vending machine services. The Coca-Cola vending machines will be gradually removed, as the company will no longer provide this service. As a result, we want to ensure that everyone is aware of the transition.
The vending services will be consolidated to specific locations for your convenience. You can find vending machines at the Lakeview Hotel, just outside the Xbox game room, and on the lower level of Cedar, across from the ski school desk. These locations have been chosen to provide accessibility and convenience to our guests.
We understand that change can bring questions, but the decision resulted from Coke exiting the vending business; we appreciate your understanding during this transition. We remain committed to providing excellent services through the Lakeview Hotel marketplace place.
Coming soon will be a mini Marketplace at the Cedar Front Desk; we believe this adjustment will contribute to a more efficient and enjoyable experience for our guests.

Snow!
& Snowmaking
Thanksgiving weekend could be the start of snowmaking, according to Mountain Manager, Roby.
Crossed fingers suggest that Roby is hopeful for favorable weather conditions to allow for successful snowmaking and a snowy and enjoyable holiday season.
Winter enthusiasts often eagerly await the first snowfall, and it sounds like Roby is no exception, eagerly anticipating the transformation of the landscape into a winter wonderland. Here's to hoping for plenty of snow and a festive holiday season!
Employee Meals
Our employee dining experience has changed, and we are excited to introduce a streamlined meal ordering system through mobile ordering.
With the convenience of a QR code, employees can easily access the digital menu, select their desired meals, and even include a complimentary beverage of their choice.
We kindly request cashless payments for all orders to prioritize safety and efficiency. This change simplifies the transaction, and we believe this new system will save time and provide a more seamless and enjoyable dining experience for our valued employees.
Thank you for being so cooperative as we continue to innovate and improve our services.

Safety Committee
We are pleased to announce that our Safety Committee, spearheaded by Andrew Lightbody, has transitioned safety data sheets to an electronic format. These sheets are now conveniently accessible through a QR code poster strategically placed throughout the facility.
We thank Andrew for his dedication and expertise in compiling this valuable resource. If you have any questions or require information regarding the chemicals used in your department, the electronic safety data sheets are designed to be your go-to resource. Scan the QR code with your mobile device to access comprehensive information about the chemicals, ensuring you have the necessary details to prioritize safety in your daily tasks.
The commitment to a safer workplace is a collective/collaborative effort, and we appreciate your cooperation in utilizing this new electronic resource. Your safety is our priority, and this initiative is a significant step towards ensuring a secure and informed work environment for all.

The WHY On:
GOING CASHLESS
• Increased efficiency and reduced costs/ customer convenience
Going cashless streamlines transactions, allowing guests to spend less time in line, and have more time for their activities (ski, golf, tubing, etc) sooner.
• Enhanced security
Cash is susceptible to theft and fraud. Digital payments have more built-in security features and transaction records. It also makes Shanty Creek less of a target for theft.
• Empowers parents to let their children explore the mountain and various establishments with the convenience of a preloaded card payments they can use at any outlet.
• Better data and analytics
Allowing us to better understand customers and make smarter business decisions.
WHAT IF GUESTS DON’T HAVE A CARD?
• No problem. We have Cash 2 Card Kiosks (Reverse ATMs) at The Lakeview Hotel Front Desk, in Ivan’s and near the Ski School at Cedar River.
• There is no charge for the service, it’s completely free!
• Our Cash 2 Card Kiosks presents an alternative to gift cards, offering versatility for use anywhere in the U.S.
