Ambassadors better than ever
Dear Editor:I have just read this morning’s Aspen Times front page article, “Up in arms” (Tuesday, Jan. 2), and disagree with the article. This is my seventh year as an ambassador, and in my opinion, this year’s program is even better than past years.Overall, the quality of the ambassadors has improved to a great extent by the personal relationship Chris has with most, if not all, ambassadors. The minor changes in this year’s program structure at Snowmass are evolutionary and for the better. Overall, ambassadors are mature, responsible and committed to the program (and Skico). They will do what is right for our guests!Jon WarnickCarbondale
