The overall increase in skier visits during that period fits the national surge in interest in skiing that began in the 1970s The eight ski regions vary con siderably in share of the market, from Mount Bachelor with 44 5 per cent to Spout Springs with 1 percent "The main reason for the greater im p act in the C entral-Southern region is the larger number of destination resort facilities serving Mount Bachelor,” the report says "The estimated gross revenue in off-mountain support services in this region is more than nine times greater than that in the Portland area " What does this really mean for the future of Oregon's ski industry ? Povey said the number of skier visits has increased an average of .9 percent annually during the past five years but 2.3 percent annually in the past 10 years Even at the lower growth rate and not adjusting for inflation, skiing would generate $156 m illion in 1991-92 and nearly $172 m illion by 1996-97, which could mean a bigger share of the national ski industry for Oregon, A W hole C re w of M e chan ics for /o u r V ehicle '’-’ It only seems th a t w a y w h e n you call ONE STOP SERVICE x t O f t f t w leave a mmsaQe f t M ■ V H V J f m s ft ' ru c k * • ■ ji» 1» to t 1 ' • , . tiu » k* : t ■ ’ a t i 668 64VS it le i [ .»• >t , in b a r * ii 2 • 668 6 0 3 ' (any lic e) c I - ) r„ »n» '.18 (N< ■ ■ »•• n A ll A 1 » u ’w .t r jr 1 »h* l ■ T O / O A A Y & f ' 2, INVENTORY REDUCTION SALE D e s i g n e r F a s h io n F r a m e s In c l u d i n g : Arnold Palmer • Cheryl Tiegs Liz Claiborne • Zsa Zsa Gabor Avante Garde • Pink Panther Faberge • Mira • Swank H U R R Y FO R BEST SE LEC TIO N ’ Franz Optical Serving the Northwest tc O vet .'0 V e.w DR ROBERT FRANZ DR TERÄ PALMBLAD 252-4521 667-2303 Live tiers to be exact.
