Windsor

There's an awesome little mountain that I think, as you think about the last ski resorts to open or ski areas to open, I actually think Hoedown Hill is the most recently opened new ski area in the country.

It's about an hour north of Denver in Windsor, Colorado.

And we worked with them for their first two seasons.

And we did not work with them last year.

It was much easier.

Like we open up for business and like we don't have to do much marketing for for the wave of customers to come in.

Whereas every customer we earned in in Windsor and Fort Collins area sort of we had to hustle to get there weren't people like already looking for affordable skiing there because it's it's a suburb of Denver.

That's so interesting because I wrote up and I talked to the folks at Hoedown Hill and they were opening it.

So it was, I think we said it in the first episode in this series, just talking about that burden of, of coming before God and saying, God, am I utilizing this life that I have, this knowledge that you've given me, these skills, these giftings that I have, this campus that we've been entrusted, are we using it to the maximum efficiency, effectiveness, and impact? And I think that's led to quite a few changes and alterations that we've been going through over the past year and a half specifically, last two years.

We need somebody"?

Well, what happened was I was managing the NoCo Owls/Colorado Springs Sky Sox in 2025, and ironically we became a travel team because we weren't able to play on our own field because the owner was in a war with the city of Windsor, Colorado, outside of Fort Collins.

Oh, yeah.

And, um, we weren't allowed to occupy the field.

Oh, it was definitely a Pioneer League.

Goodness.

And so, um, we had two double headers, and that was the only time that we ever played in Fort Collins/Windsor.

Okay.

Is it

more of a bedrock community of Toledo? Like it's far enough outside that it's not quite a suburb, but it's close enough that it's like Windsor, Colorado to Denver sort of thing? Something like

that.

We've done these type of towns, especially in the Northeast or in these older areas of the country where they have like...

Mm

... locally at the Windsor Harvest Festival.

Yeah, yeah, I remember.

Um, and unfortunately we, we also just recently had a unfortunate event at a parade-type affair here-

He's like, "Hey James, I know you're a creative guy.

I have this project.

I wanna highlight the businesses of Windsor that are slowly reopening and having some hard time getting their footing-
