Show Park High School Notes Because Park City is a ski resort, one must assume that it will continue being a ski resort and therefore need all of the workmen associated with a resort area. Construction workers will probably be popular for a few years to come. However, it is mostly seasonal work without (in most cases) a steady income. After the initial ini-tial construction is over, there will still be a smaller need for construction maintenance main-tenance workers. Lift operators and trail groomers will be needed for the life of the resort. This is also very seasonal work and usually has low pay and pretty lousy working conditions. condi-tions. Snow plowing and other work for city maintenance and improvement will also be around for as long as the resort is. This work is not seasonal and has better pay than lift operators, but probably pro-bably not exceeding $5,000 a year. Mine workers. Since the town still has working m'nes, it will need miners to work in them. The work is not varied and the weather remains relatively the same. It too is not a too high paying .job. There is also a small need for highly trained engineers to design construction of ski lifts and mine hoists. This is probably the highest paying job of all and the one needing need-ing the most training. Many jobs in Park City would not need a high education, edu-cation, but for higher pay it is almost necessary. There are, of course, other jobs such as restaurant work, shops and stores, bars, plus road makers, run cutters, etc. Few of these require special spe-cial education that cannot be acquired by on the job training. train-ing. All of this depends upon the conomy, however. -Greg iPratt. Big BrotherSister When?
