Unique, exotic styles set rustic furniture and decor boutique apart By Adam Elggren OF THE PARK RECORD For those who are looking for new furniture and decorations but want a natural feel, Prima Terra, quite possibly the "earthiest" store in Park City, may be the place. That's earthy, at least, as much as any store on Main Street can be. Prima Terra isn't exactly your neighborhood shanty-town second-hand goods emporium; empo-rium; Prima Terra products are of fine quality, and they don't come cheaply. But in light of the trend toward high costs and exclusivity in Park City, Prima Terra is refreshingly accessible. The pieces at the store's Main Street showroom (509 Main) are often of contradictory styling. Unique, for instance, but able to fit in with virtually any style of decor. Much of the furniture is antiqued, though brand new. Still other items are, at the same time, down-to-earth and exotic the Mexican cats, for example. Because of their off-pastel coloring and arty style, the decorative wooden cats at Prima Terra would add an exotic touch to any room. But because they are hand-carved and have a kind of charming, third-world look, they seem very accessible, like something you picked up yourself in a Mexican flea market. Which is , essentially, what Prima Terra owner Loretta Landon did. She has hand-selected everything every-thing in the store herself from shops and craftsmen in Indonesia, Mexico and throughout the U. S. (At press time, Landon had just returned from Guadalajara and was expecting a large shipment of items that, she says, will dramatically alter the mix at Prima Terra.) "I like to have stuff that's mostly hand-made, and very eclectic" said Landon of her taste in what she calls "functional art."

Even if official sponsorship of the Games which carries a hefty, multi-million dollar price tag is financially out of reach, many businesses are taking advantage of sponsorship opportunities at local Olympic training facilities like the Winter Sports Park in Bear Hollow, recently made available by the Utah Sports Authority. The asking price? Event and facility sponsorships start at just $500. A Winter Sports Park sponsorship may not net any national nation-al exposure, but it does bring an association with the Games through the athletes who train there; the events held there, which serve as Olympic warm-ups; and the mere attachment with Olympic sports such as the bobsled and ski jump. "In most people's minds, these are fairly clearly Olympic facilities," says Randy Montgomery, executive director of the Utah Sports Authority. And they are world-class facilities at that, he adds. The Sports Park is one of only two facilities in the United States with refrigerated bobsled and luge tracks, and the only one in North America with a full range (18-, 38-, 65- and 90-meter) 90-meter) Nordic jumping area. It's also a year-round facility with both winter and summer training and competitions. Montgomery said sponsorship sponsor-ship of the park "falls into the public relations area for sponsors. "They would probably have to consider it kind of a donation, as well," he said, because the actual name exposure is fairly limited. The biggest event the park has held attracted about 2,000 spectators, Montgomery said. "Sponsors are important because we want the community commu-nity to be involved in these events, said the Sports Authority director.

Dreams with wings Wings & Wires West, Inc., a Park City company, recently helped illustrate the story of a woman's car-buying dream come true. When 79-year-old Dorothy Ecord of Pinedale, Wyo., set her heart on buying a Saturn automobile, she was told by the factory that the nearest dealership was located in Salt Lake City. Ecord called the dealer and he said he would arrange for her to take, a test drive. The Saturn dealer flew to Pinedale in his private plane, brought Ecord to Salt Lake City, and sold her the car. Wings and Wires West provided the plane and pilots for a new commercial the car company shot to dramatize the unusual unusu-al sale. Filming was done in the Wasatch Front area using Parkite Neil Salmi's 1952 Cessna 170. Salmi and Wings President Ed Strauchen did the flying. Replied Ecord, the star of the commercial, when asked how she felt after bouncing around at low altitude in Provo Canyon, "This is nothing son, I used to ride bucking broncos." few yuow laiK now jr sA 11,000 VW 10,000 V.":- 9,00 I ' 8,001 ' vrmm " 5,00o I 4,000 Jf&te; Each pillow in the sjk visitor nil & actual daily numbei ieare 1 0oTVX1 Ejected lodgin fyJf?k - '-Wv Total Visitor Nights 13,341 I ts Weekly High , I INightly Average This tally, ewisu 4 Jhe visitor night f-:" ;?
