Dave Hessong - Olympic Champion

Recently, the Erie Times News ran an article about Dave Hessong.  Dave worked up in British Columbia at Whistler Resort, overseeing the snow and ice management (among some other tasks) for this important ski venue for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, BC, Canada.  Dave is one awesome fellow with regards to this type of activity. 

 

Dave Hessong was our General Manager at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah.  He oversaw all the snow removal on all the Venues for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee.  He was responsible for the successful completion of our assigned tasks.  Of course, he had a bunch of guys working for him in this activity – but he took total responsibility for the actions of these folks.  He did an outstanding job, and was specifically mentioned in the Letter of Recommendation we got from the Organizing Committee.  That recognition was well deserved.

 

And, so are the gracious words being said about his performance in Vancouver.  Whistler got snow (unlike the skating venues down in the city of Vancouver itself).

 

So – this is my personal congratulations to Dave on (another) Job Well Done.
