Last week the management at Hockley Valley Resort called and came up with a brilliant idea. "We want a Sense Appeal Cafe in our Ski Cafeteria.” We had 1 week to pull it off and boy did we ever, although I think I lost some friends in the process. Anyway, thanks guys for pulling this off over the holidays.
