Congratulations to Chief Operating Officer of Arapahoe Basin Ski Area, Alan Henceroth, who is joining the more than 250 athletes, coaches, patrons and supporters of snow sports to be inducted into the Colorado Snowsports Hall of Fame since its first class in 1977.
“Snowsports are integral to who we are as Coloradans. They’re our spirit, our state pastime, and our identity. None of that endures without people who take that passion and push it to the next level.” -United States Senator and former Governor of Colorado John Hickenlooper
