BARTLETT, New Hampshire ??\u0432\u0402\u045c Attitash recently announced that Jennifer Mercier, Gorham, and Joe Tringali, Glen, are the Hotel and Mountain employees of the year. The selection process is made by co-worker nominations. Mercier and Tringali have received a $1000 check along with a plaque commemorating the honor.<\/p>\n\n\n

“I might be handing them the check, but it’s the staff that nominated them for Employee of the Year,” said Tom Chasse, managing director at Attitash. “It’s a difficult selection to make with so many great people on board, that’s why all staff play a key role in who is chosen.”<\/p>\n

Jennifer Mercier has been Banquet Captain at the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel and Conference Center for nearly 4 years. She oversees a staff of 25 on-call employees who together provide banquet services to Attitash’s diverse conference and event guests. Mercier often coordinates banquets of up to 500 guests on consecutive nights with an entirely on-call staff of servers.<\/p>\n

“Being chosen by my co-workers means a lot to me,” said Mercier.<\/p>\n

Joe Tringali has been making snow at Attitash for nearly 20 years. Each year Tringali and the snowmaking crew expand Attitash’s open terrain from none to nearly 100% in less than 2 months, often working in cold temperatures and darkness. They are also to thank for the massive amounts of snow required in Attitash’s terrain parks and Superpipe. <\/p>\n\n\n
