Oh No! Not Another Organaization...

Park City Utah has a permanent population of about 8000. There are a few differences between the Big Bear Valley and Park City but when it comes to potential, I believe we have many advantages over Park City.

Park City does have a very efficient Retail Marketplace with close to $450MM in taxable sales annually. That is considerably more than the City of Big Bear Lake and probably considerably more than our entire trade area.

Another thing they have is 9 business associations, each giving a voice to their own segment and specific needs. Apparently, it works pretty well.

Park City Business Associations:
  1. Business Network International: (435) 731-0239
  2. Coalville Area Business Association: (435) 336-2391
  3. Historic Main Street Business Alliance, Ken Davis, president: (435) 658-9612
  4. Park City Restaurant Association, Eileen Dunn, chair: (435) 640-133
  5. Park City Women s Business Network: (877) 246-2858
  6. Prospector Square Property Owners Association: (435) 645-7888
  7. Park City Lodging Association, Terry Whitney: (435) 649-6400
  8. Park City Chamber/Bureau: 649-6100
  9. Kimball Junction Business Association, Kim McKew: (435) 575-0265
