SIA Recgonizes Top US, Canadian Snow Sports Retailers & Reps ...

?

WASHINGTON (Feb. 27, 2013) ? SnowSports Industries America (SIA) honored 13 retailers and 15 regional sales reps from the United States and Canada with 2012 SnowSports Retailer of the Year Awards and 2012 SnowSports Rep of the Year Awards for consistently making a significant impact in the snow sports industry. Honorees received awards made out of beetle kill wood representing the beetle issues affecting an unprecedented 50,000 acres of forest in the American West.

The SIA U.S. Retailer of the Year Award is based on a shop?s contributions to the growth of the snow sports industry, their promotional and marketing techniques and their success in the ski, snowboard, tele, cross country and/or snowshoe categories. The award winners are nominated and selected by suppliers and reps in the snow sports industry.

All of the winning shops are listed as ?snow experts? in SIA?s Snow Expert database and can use the program?s marketing materials to signify their expertise to their customers.

The award is an honor for retailers. ?We work as hard as we play, and to be recognized for that by a jury of our peers is so rad,? said Brendan Madigan, owner of Alpenglow Sports in Tahoe City, Calif. ?The entire team at Alpenglow takes immense pride in being vested in the community.?
