Welcome to our 2012 Staff!

On March 1st, thirteen fantastic NEW staff members descended upon the Zion Adventure Company loft to begin their lives here in Zion as new ZAC team members. Over the past two weeks, these individuals have morphed into an amazingly cohesive team as they have explored Zion National Park and their roles here at ZAC. Our new team members come from an impressive variety of backgrounds and locations, from New York and Washington State to the Czech Republic! If you’re in town anytime soon, stop into the shop and meet some of the new staff. Ask them lots of questions about the Park, the Zion Narrows, or our guided trips… you might be surprised at how much they already know. If you are a long-time Zion visitor, feel free to share any hints and secrets you might have learned from our staff in the past. We give them everything we’ve got, but our clients are always our best teachers!

Springdale’s St. Patrick’s Day parade, green Jell-o sculpture contest, and other festivities attract hundreds of bystanders every year. This year was no different. In the past, Zion Adventure’s staff has had the opportunity to be involved with these activities, but this year we went all out! Many members of our team (myself included!) jumped aboard the Overland Unimog in crazy outfits and hair-dos, and set out for a great time in the parade. Our signature parade production involved the entire team getting “ran over” by the Unimog. Check out the video! The ZAC float starts at about TIME: 3:10. You can also find more info, videos, and photos on Springdale’s facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/Springdale.Utah In addition to having a great time, we received the “Best Float” award in the parade, and our own team member Lanell Dike and her friends received “Best in Show” in the Jell-o sculpture contest … Continue reading
