Sales Update | Summer 2018

by

Land and home sales at The Colony over the past 12 months tell a pretty incredible story – take a few moments to watch our Summer 2018 Sales Update video (below) for an outline. Things continue to move quickly here – in fact, in the time it took to produce this video, two additional lots have closed, and a third homesite – as well as a home – are under contract.

Connect with Bronson Calder and Stephen Jeffers, members of the in-house Colony Sales Team with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Utah, to begin building your legacy at The Colony!

A Colony Sales Team Announcement

by

 

The Colony is pleased to congratulate Bronson Calder, Kurt Peterson, and Stephen Jeffers of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, on their expanded leadership roles at The Colony at White Pine Canyon. Our longtime listing agent, Bob Marsh has elected to relinquish his role as our principal Colony listing agent and Bronson has assumed the lead position on our expanded Colony team, which includes Kurt, Stephen, Bob, and Cindy Salrin.

Bob Marsh and developer Walt Brett conducted an extensive search to find experts who share the philosophy that has made The Colony such a special ski-in, ski-out community. Bronson, Kurt, and Stephen’s enthusiasm, expertise and deep knowledge of Park City and The Colony make them the perfect team to continue The Colony legacy.

The Colony Sales Team
Bronson Calder was born and raised in Park City, steeped in his family’s real estate tradition. Nearly 20 years ago, Bronson formed a business partnership with long-time colleague, Kurt Peterson. The Peterson-Calder Real Estate Group has consistently been in the top 1% of Park City’s agents, with more than 800 transaction sides and approximately $600 million sold.

Stephen Jeffers hails from Lake Tahoe, California. After college, he elected to build on his family’s real estate legacy in the Tahoe/Reno area. Stephen joined The Colony team in 2017 and feels honored to represent our project. He is a descendant of the Condas family, the original landowners of The Colony at White Pine Canyon.

Cindy Salrin got her real estate license in 2008 and has enjoyed her job as a licensed assistant for the past 10 years. Being ensconced in the majestic setting of The Colony makes it easy for her to love her job here – lucky for us because she keeps the entire team together.

Going forward, as Bronson leads the team, he’ll have the benefit of Bob Marsh’s expertise and institutional knowledge. After nearly 20 years of intense focus on building The Colony brand, Bob will switch from overseeing the day-to-day operations to the listing of properties within The Colony. It has been fascinating for Bob to watch this project grow from its humble beginning into what it has become today. Bob’s passion for The Colony continues, and knowing that he will remain on our team providing support and continued involvement with the project and sales team is very reassuring.

Connect with Us
Please reach out to Bronson and the team anytime. They have a presence in The Colony offices 7 days a week. Utilize their knowledge for any questions you may have about our project – real-estate related or not. They are your most knowledgeable and trusted sources for information about this incredible community. We also invite you to follow updates on our website and on our social channels: Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Sincerely,
Walt Brett and The Colony Team

Grand Valley Bank Concert Series

The Grand Valley Bank Concert Series at Deer Valley Resort, programmed by Mountain Town Music, has become the midweek anchor to most Parkite’s schedules.

The Performers
Each Wednesday this summer (except July 4), all ages are welcome to enjoy this concert series, featuring a truly full range of music.

 

TONIGHT: enjoy Sammy Brue, a 15-year-old Ogden native dubbed an “Americana prodigy” by Rolling Stone. He’ll be joined by The Wesley Bell Ringers.

The following weeks will see performances from Take 5, Smiling Souls,  Troubadour 77 with BroBand, Aiko, The Breakfast Klub, and Yolanda Arrey. Check out the full schedule HERE.

And – one we’re really looking forward to is the August 22nd show – the Live PC Give PC Community Jam Session! The event will bring local musicians together to celebrate the end of summer.

Food and Beverages
Coolers are welcome, so feel free to pack yours full of snacks, treats, and drinks (glass containers are allowed). Deer Valley’s concession stand operates during the concerts, with food and beverages (including alcohol), available for purchase. Do not – we repeat – do not forget to grab a famous DV cookie to enjoy, whether it’s after dinner, before dinner, or for your dinner. Deer Valley Grocery Café also offers to-go items to grab on your way up to the resort.

Picnic Bags
You can also take advantage of a pre-made picnic bag, prepared by Deer Valley and ready for you to pick up at the concert! Vegetarian, gluten-free, vegan, and children’s options are offered. Enjoy selections like Chilled Niman Ranch braised beef short rib, housemade basil gnocchi, quinoa-cauliflower bites, and peanut butter and jelly sushi rolls (that one’s for the kids but it sounds pretty good to us). Each basket comes with an entrée, salad, snacks, and dessert.   

The Logistics
The concerts are held in the Snow Park Outdoor Amphitheater, at the base of Deer Valley Resort. Gates open at 4 p.m. (the prime spots fill up fast), and the music plays from 5:30 – 8. Picnics, coolers, glass containers, and dancing are permitted – animals are not. Parking is free.

Mountain Town Music
This non-profit organization exists to “produce, foster, and support live music which enhances the cultural experience for Park City and Summit County residents and visitors.” The majority of its shows are provided free of charge, and the group works year-round to program hundreds of shows, provide workshops to students, to provide networking opportunities for musicians, and to partner with other nonprofits to reach community-driven goals.

Park City Nonprofit Highlight: Recycle Utah

by

Recycle Utah provides community-based resources and solutions (photo courtesy: Recycle Utah).

Park City & Summit County:
Committed to a Sustainable Community

A huge part of why Park City is such a wonderful place to build a life is the focus on sustainability. The effort to embrace best sustainability practices is led by our municipality. In fact, the Park City City Council lists it on the critical priority list and has set one of the most ambitious climate goals in  North America: to be net-zero carbon and run on 100% renewable energy for city operations by 2022, and the entire community by 2032. 

Park City Municipal has set very high-impact goals for sustainability.

Summit County, too, has created high-impact goals, with the aim to be 100% net renewable energy by 2032 for all Summit Co. government operations, and to make renewable electrical energy available and broadly adopted by all residents and businesses by the same year.

Thanks to city and county leadership, and dedicated sustainability teams, our community will reap the benefits for generations to come.

Boots on the Ground

The plan is one thing – the execution is another. And, while Summit County provides curbside recycling to all residents, there is a mountainous amount of waste which cannot be put in your bin – but *should* be recycled. 

Enter Recycle Utah (aka, The Park City Conservation Association)! The visionary group has served Summit County since 1991 with the mission to empower people to lead sustainable lives – and the ultimate vision of a zero waste plan for Summit County.

Recycle Utah sees double-digit percentage increases in participation year after year.

Why Recycle?

Simply put – It’s about our groundwater, which is a critical component of our environment and, of course, our public health. What goes into the trash → leaches into our groundwater at the landfill → impacts our drinking water. To avoid toxins landing in the landfill in the first place – hit up Recycle Utah.

Not only does the Recycle Utah center (located on Woodbine Way) provide a place for you to take items like glass, styrofoam, plastic bags, batteries, and e-waste, it has an entire department dedicated to active education.

Education, Empowerment & CSAs

In an effort to provide community-based resources – and solutions – Recycle Utah conducts on-site environmental education, leads the Green Business Program, and facilitates composting workshops at the center (did you know – composting can easily decrease your garbage pile by as much as 30%?!).

Recycle Utah also supports Community Supported Agriculture – known as CSAs – by serving as a pick-up center for shareholders. This means CSAs like Bell Organic Gardens and Farmers Next Door drop off boxes of their lovely local produce at the Park City location each week, and residents who have bought in for the growing season simply zip over to pick up their share.

Recycling Services

Because of its efforts, Recycle Utah prevents 200 TONS of valuable materials from wasting in the landfill. And this is not per year. This is 200 tons – per month. The center accepts more than 50 different items for re-use, or hazmat treatment. Check out the list of acceptable items HERE.

Impact

In 2017 alone – Recycle Utah had approximately 400 visitors to the center each day, and collected:

  • 832 tons of glass
  • 188 tons of metal
  • 98 tons of plastic
  • 7.2 tons of Styrofoam
  • 624 tons of paper and cardboard

The grand total of materials recycled adds up to 3,496,000 pounds (1,748 tons)!

Upcoming Events | How to Support Recycle Utah

Support local businesses while you save water at the native plant sale this weekend.

Native Plant Sale
On Saturday, June 9, Recycle Utah will host a native plant sale from 9 – 11 a.m., where you can purchase drought-tolerant plants for your garden. All plants will be supplied by southern Utah nurseries (which specialize in xeriscaping and low-maintenance landscaping), and brought here by Park City Nursery. Native plants conserve water with improved soil retention – so less water is required for maintenance.

Uncorked
The 7th Annual Uncorked outdoor concert will be held on Friday, June 29. All proceeds will go to fund glass recycling collection. A $7 ticket gives you access to live music and food, with beverages available for purchase.

Drink Green & Shop
All year-round, you can shop green. Items like composters, reusable tote and produce bags, and biodegradable dog poo bags are for sale in the center shop.

If meeting for drinks is more your speed, Recycle Utah facilitates Green Drinks. These are gatherings held on the second Tuesday of every other month for eco-conscious people to get together to talk and learn from local leaders about sustainability, environmental, and social issues.

Land preservation and sustainability are a very important part of life at The Colony at White Pine Canyon, where approximately 90% of our 4600 acres will be preserved as open space, thanks to conservation easements. We’re grateful for the visionary leadership of Recycle Utah and its steady work to improve and preserve our singular quality of life here in the mountains of Park City, Utah.
