Weekly Message from Our Director and CEO, Stephan Jost

Hello Everyone,

This week we hit the 110,000 mark in annual pass holders! And the number keeps growing. Did you know that before this year, we had an average of 6,000 young people (25 years and under) visiting us per month? Since the Annual Pass, we have been averaging over 18,000 visitors in this age group. That is an increase of 12,000 visitors!

At this week’s managers’ meeting, Deepak Chopra, General Manager, shopAGO, shared some great gift suggestions of specially sourced and custom items available in the shop. There are lots of options to choose from. Members’ Shopping Week returns today through to December 15 (including online). This is a great time to remind you that employees get an incredible 25% discount in shopAGO.   

A big thanks to all employees and volunteers at this busy time of year. I appreciate everything you are doing to create amazing experiences for our visitors during the holiday season. Please join us to get your creative juices flowing and blow off some steam at the upcoming Gingerbread Make Off next Wednesday at 2pm in Seminar Room 1. I know there are some great competitors out there!

Enjoy the weekend,

Stephan
