咱买个雪场吧。
Grey Highlands to proceed with tax sale of Talisman
By DON CROSBY, SPECIAL TO QMI AGENCY

Grey Highlands has decided to proceed with a tax sale of Talisman Mountain Resort, but a representative of a court-appointed receiver trying to sell the property says he will not support the effort.

The municipality is owed about $1.6 million in back taxes and outstanding water and sewer charges.
Council decided Monday to revert to a tax sale after a court-appointed receiver was unable to produce a buyer over the past three months.
Mayor Wayne Fitzgerald said council decided the municipality had given the receiver more than enough time and now it's time to recover the money owed the municipality through a different avenue.
Last November, Blair Davidson of BDO Canada promised council that the entire sale process would be complete by Jan. 15.
The best bid was to be presented to a court by Jan. 7 for approval with a closing date of sometime in mid-January.
Talisman has been closed for more than a year.
Last fall Grey Highlands agreed to let a court-appointed receiver try to sell the property.
Davidson told council on Monday he still doesn't have a firm offer that he could take to the court for approval, but he hasn't given up on the process and wants to continue.
He says there are still two prospective buyers.
"One has provided an offer, but not a firm offer, and still no deposit," he said. He said the offer is far more than the $1.6 million owed the municipality, but without a firm, unconditional cash offer with a non-refundable deposit the bid cannot go forward.

Davidson said the next step would be to list the property with realtors to see if more potential buyers could be attracted.

That effort would take about three more months.
Davidson said a potential buyer has to consider that the ski lift and snow-making equipment will require considerable capital investments to modernize.
As well this mild winter wasn't a good year for the ski industry.
After a closed-door session, council announced that it doesn't support the receiver's request to continue and plans to revert to a tax sale.
"The request of the receiver was turned down by council and we're now seeking a remedy through the tax sale process. The first step is that we would go to the receiver and seek their support to move forward on (the) tax sale process. Should the receiver not support moving forward on a tax sale, then we would be seeking leave of the court," said chief administrator Dan Best.
Davidson told council during his update Monday that he won't support the move to a tax sale.
He said he wants to continue negotiations and hopefully get a deal that would help pay some of the other creditors, such as TD Bank, which is owed $4 million and is helping pay for some costs, including security for the property and buildings.
Davidson acknowledged that the property is being vandalized. He said the OPP had installed security cameras on the property, but they were stolen.

谁能给咱把钱的问题解决了？

This is money lossing business. Few years ago, I was thinking going there but can never make there because the location is so far to reach. Most of skiers will not go. The problem is location which no one can change.

如果政府要修一条410一直连到Owen Sound或布鲁斯半岛的高速，这个项目将大有可为。
那一片沿着26号高速人还是越来越多，不在这条线上的Talisman就显得孤独。实际我去过这个雪场，它周围的环境非常漂亮，看红叶有几处绝佳地点。边上的Eugenia小镇有个落差不小的瀑布，瀑布边上的小道就是著名的布鲁斯trail。但雪场里看着就是设备老旧，年久失修。

对于这个雪场西海大侠应该比较有发言权，俺记得他买过一年的季票来着。

至于说位置当然不是很好，但也不至于完全不行，Beaver Valley就在他的旁边，人不也开的好好得么？

位置是一方面，另一方面可能还要花不少的钱来更新设备，不过正是这些不利因素有可能让这个雪场变的比较affordable，俺相信这个雪场以前也是一直赚钱的，只是最近几年的不利天气和老旧的设备才让他慢慢变的入不敷出。

这个山，送都不能要。每年一大堆保养的费用。安省冬天短，雪少，雪场地点不好，吸引力小，永远是个赔本生意。

JS 想买吗？
我部分同意Vicboy 的意见，但条件是现在千万别买， 送都不能要， 倒找才可以考虑。跟V大的不能买有区别。  
它跟BeaverValley不能比，那个是私人俱乐部，　有深厚的会员基础。　这个山也有缺陷，就是有缺陷才不能跟其他的滑雪场竞争。要是没缺陷条件稍好一点， 想买都买不到。
但是，也不是不可以经营，我觉得要是想赚钱就不能指望冬天，冬天只能聚个人气而已，　要换个思路指望春夏秋来赚钱。　
要是同雪网集资买的话，我愿意买一些股份，

我对所有这些“干啃”的小雪场都不看好。这些小雪场会越来越少。Intrawest的模式较好。雪场是拿来吊钩的，酒店，餐馆酒吧，商店是赚钱的。

我们蒙城有个干啃的小雪场,没啥周边.

但是它有个无可匹敌的优势, 到市区只要20分钟车程, 很多家长把它当托儿所.

所以他号称拥有蒙城最大的滑雪学校. 活的忒滋润.
