Arvada, CO
2. Why CSG?
Since 1989 after moving to Colorado from Texas my family purchased all our ski and golf equipment from CSG.
3. Favorite recreation location/ski or golf resort
Every year since 1989 my family always purchased a season pass to either Copper Mnt,, Summit pass, Winter Park and Eldora.
Golf courses we choose by specials they offer on every day prices. We owned Avid Golfer Passports and Mega membership from American golf in the past years.
4. What unique perspective do you offer to your customers?
I enjoy coming to work because customers in this kind of store share the same interest in golf and skiing as I do. And after retiring from a professional job, what a better place to work part-time and enjoy what I’m doing.
5. What do your customers like most about you?
After my first year working in Junior Ski Trade department I felt that I found my “niche”, working with children and having a chance to use and share my love for skiing and making their experience getting their equipment most enjoyable. And having a very nice young people working alongside with makes me feel like a best place I could be working at now. This is my forth year working here and after the second year I ask to work even during the golf season.
6. Describe a memorable situation in which you really had an impact on a customer
Every time I make a child getting skis and see smiles on their faces and parents leaving the store appreciating my help and even shaking my hand or even getting hugs makes my working here worth while.
7. Favorite sporting event
I’m not much for watching sports, I rather participate in all outdoors activities
8. Most memorable moment skiing/golfing?
Every time I get better in any aspect of the golf game or after getting new skis and finding out that with a better equipment I am capable of better skiing or golfing. And that I can later share my experiences with store customers. And all that helps me be a better salesperson.
9. Favorite piece of equipment
My new K2 Apache Recons and Ping G10 clubs.

I enjoy the whole variety of products we sell in our store
11. Best gift at CSG under $50
