Warming Up for Summer

4/5/2014

 

With your help, Coming soon: New Outdoor Summer Bar

 We'd love your help with a NEW outdoor bar for the summer. An open-air, four-sided bar would better accommodate the fast-paced service required for Big Top Chautauqua shows (think Tiki Bar, but more Up North, eh! ).
 -If you'd like to help with this project, here's some of what we'll need:
 -Materials (plywood, 2x4's, 4x4's, counter-tops, shelving, electrical systems, potable & grey water systems, roofing materials, flooring, lighting, etc.) 
 -Equipment, either donation or on-loan (refrigerators, chest freezers, ice makers) 
 -Tools, time, and elbow grease to make this project a reality! 
Open-air bar
An open-air, four-sided bar would greatly increase efficiency for Big Top shows. Ours will be bigger & classier than this rendering.
If you can help, contact us HERE

Our axe is more duct-tape and rust than anything else. Watch your toes.

 Spring Cleaning? Think of us

 As always, we're in need of some supplies & equipment. Here are a few things that are high up on our list:
 -Catering Supplies (table coverings, serving dishes, warmers, etc.)
 -Ice Machine either donated or on-loan
 -Hatchets for splitting kindling 
 -Shovels, Snow Rakes, and Sno-Scoops
 -Plow Truck for clearing the parking lot
 -Snowmobiles for Ski Patrol and Hill Operations
 -Siding for the end facings of the Chalet
 -Piston Bully for snow grooming (its nice to dream BIG)
 -If you've got something to give, we'll see if we can't find a purpose for it. As a non-profit operation, we rely heavily on the creative use of limited resources, and welcome any assistance. Contact us HERE

 Volunteer some time to Help Improve Mt Ashwabay

 In addition to helping build our summer bar, we're also thinking about next winter already. Some of the projects you can help with include:
 -Rope Tow made it to our last weekend of this season, but will no longer be able to function. An entire rebuild is needed to ensure the safety of skiers & snowboarders
 -Chair Lift needs routine seasonal maintenance, as well as a new coat of paint, improvements to pole bases, and other tune-ups
 -Chalet will be undergoing improvements thanks to generous donors. Major projects needing Volunteer help to complete include re-carpeting and replacing windows
 -Outdoor projects include wood-splitting, trail clearing & improvements, and grading runs
 -Garage use could be greatly improved with the construction of a lofted office and storage space

Although the snow isn't quite gone, we're already getting ready for a busy & fun summer at Mt Ashwabay. During the un-snowy months, we host the Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua and their awesome series of shows under the tent. Throughout the season, Mt Ashwabay handles all grill, cafe, and bar operations. If you'd like to be part of a fun and exciting summer, join us! Learn more about available summer positions HERE


Volunteer at Mt Ashwabay
The summer also offers a great chance to volunteer and help the Ashwabay Outdoor Educational Foundation. If you're interested in enjoying some great outdoor fun at Mt Ashwabay that doesn't involve snow, let us know. Aside from the grill & bar services for the Big Top, there's a LOT of work that goes into getting ready for the upcoming winter. From mowing and brush clearing, to equipment maintenance, to marketing and fundraising, to facility improvements, we've got a lot to get done before the snow flies! Please let us know if you'd like to help, and we'll find some projects to match you with. Please contact us HERE
