Western Hospitality Award Presented to Eric Buthmann


The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce Membership Committee is pleased to announce that Eric Buthmann of Snow King Resort has been awarded the Western Hospitality Award for July.

Kathleen Beliveau and her two children were staying at Snow King Resort during a long trip across the country. Her trailer hitch had been causing problems and as she was preparing to depart from Jackson, it was obvious that the hitch needed to be fixed. Eric Buthmann took time from his busy schedule to work on the trailer hitch and got Beliveau up and running! Beliveau appreciated the "emotional and practical support" that Buthmann provided. She said, "Without this, we could not have been able to continue our journey."

The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce Membership Committee would like to extend their thanks to Eric Buthmann for going above and beyond the call of duty and helping a stranded traveler. Buthmann received a prize package from Grand Teton Lodge Company, including lodging, a lake cruise, and breakfast at the Pioneer Grill!
