Skiers and snowboarders ride the Pine Marten Express chairlift with Broken Top in the background on opening day at Mt. Bachelor ski area in December.

“Americans yearned for safe
outdoor recreation, and ski
areas across the country deliv-
ered,” Pawlak said.
Katherine Fuller, a spokes-
woman for Colorado’s Arapa-
hoe Basin ski area, said the sea-
son was “definitely a hard one
for all of us.”
“But people wanted to ski
and ride, and it felt kind of at
times like one of the few things
you could do because it was
all outside,” she said. “We just
kind of just sort of rolled with
it, and it worked out. It was
far better than we expected.
I think people really enjoyed
themselves.”
The ski area near the Con-
tinental Divide restricted the
number of skiers and snow-
boarders allowed on the
mountain each day based on
terrain, the number of lifts
running and public health or-
ders at the time. It closed out
its winter season Sunday.
The average U.S. ski area
was open for 112 days this past
season, up from 99 days in
the shortened 2019-20 season,
according to the association.
Most ski areas remained open
as long as they had initially
planned.
Meanwhile, small and me-
dium-sized ski areas, which
are defined by lift capacity,
performed well because more
guests chose to stay close to
home for ski trips. Capacity
restrictions, remote work op-
portunities and school flexi-
bility also meant more skiers
and riders hit the slopes on
weekdays, easing some of the
congestion typical of weekends
and holidays.
“People had to change their
habits during the pandemic,
and ski areas were no differ-
ent,” Pawlak said. “We tried
new things and quickly learned
that not only did they function
as planned, but many of these
‘work-arounds’ improved the
experience for our guests and
staff members.”
The National Ski Areas As-
sociation is a trade group for
ski area owners and operators
and represents more than 300
alpine resorts that account for
more than 90% of skier and
snowboarder visits nationwide.
The organization has been
tracking ski area visitation
since 1978.
Goddik, the department
head, said industry groups
donated for a few reasons: to
invest in the next generation
of the dairy industry, to sup-
port research and to have a
facility they could access for
testing and product develop-
ment.
Goddik said small cream-
eries often lack the equip-
ment needed for product
testing, while large creamer-
ies usually have equipment
that’s too big for batch tests
— so the scale of OSU’s new
facility will be ideal to serve
both groups.
OSU’s existing facility is
only set up for artisanal chee-
semaking — a brand called
Beaver Classic. In the new
facility, students will be able
to produce more cheese va-
rieties, yogurt, ice cream and
other products.
Frojen, the creamery man-
ager, said she looks forward
to making blue cheese with
her students, which isn’t pos-
sible in the current facility.
“We’ll be able to expand
into other products,” said
Sams, the dean. “(The plant)
will also allow us to teach
more technologically ad-
vanced and industry-relevant
things to the students to keep
pace with the industry so
they’re ready to step into jobs
when they graduate.”
Sams predicted 100 to 150
students annually, mostly in
the Department of Food Sci-
ence and Technology, will
work directly in the plant.
Hundreds more will be con-

Glass to Glass, a subsidiary
of Owens-Brockway, is the
only glass processor in Oregon
capable of taking mixed color
glass collected through curb-
side recycling programs, Esteve
said. Most of that glass goes to
Owens-Brockway’s Portland
plant for processing.
A glass melting furnace at
the Portland plant exceeded
the state’s particulate matter
limit during three tests from
May 2019 to August 2020, ac-
cording to the state enforce-
ment notice. The company
has exceeded opacity limits —
the degree to which visibility
is lessened by pollution — at

least 50 times since 2009, ac-
cording to the state. Opacity
is an indicator of particulate
matter being released into the
air which can cause serious
health problems, according to
an enforcement notice from
the state.
Emissions from the furnace
also exceeded the state’s
opacity limit during tests
in April 2020 and March
2021, and the company
failed to notify the state of
the violations in a timely
manner, according to the state
enforcement notice.
The state said that the com-
pany must consider reducing
production levels to comply
with its permit.
Panic announced Tues-
day that it will start taking
advance orders for Playdate
sometime in July but didn’t
specify when buyers will get
their devices. CEO Cabel
Sasser warned in an online

studying engineering, agri-
business and animal and
rangeland science.
Professors say they’re also
excited about research oppor-
tunities, including new space
to study terroir, sustainability
and how feed impacts cheese
flavor.
Project leaders say they’re
hopeful the plant will be a
welcoming public space, with
big glass windows so visitors
can watch the cheesemaking
process, more opportunity
for school field trips and FFA
members and a mobile food
stand.

Playdate will come with

Panic also announced a

Bluetooth speaker and dock
— price undisclosed — for
charging and displaying Play-
date.
