ORDA's Biggest Mistakes

[Peter Minde]

I served on a school board for 7 years. In the electronic age, it ain't difficult to put out a notice of a public meeting.

Looks like ORDA made the news again...

Looks like ORDA made the news again, again...

World Cup mountain bike race: Was it a success?

State officials are still analyzing ticket sales and revenue from last month's cross-country mountain bike race held in Lake Placid

Wonder if they’ll hire some of the recently laid off folks from Vail Resorts Inc. to fill all the new ORDA vacancies. Those folks have experience of something or other.

Should be a nice kitchen!

Olympic authority spending $6.3M to upgrade Lake Placid training center

Another $96 million may be fast-tracked for Mount Van Hoevenberg; ORDA still waiting to hear about Olympic hosting bid.

Didn’t ORDA put in a bid to host (as a backup) the sliding events for 2026 recently?

Now they're asking for mega millions for kitchen-dining-refrigeration.

Doubt The Tiroleans gotta upgrade their food service-dining offerings around Cortina.
Folks there know food.

Yes and they got it ....its been in several news articles - https://www.lakeplacidnews.com/news...osen-as-plan-b-site-for-2026-olympic-sliding/

I worked for AT&T for 36 years and whenever they changed what they reported in earnings reports it was to hide something. Not saying that’s what ORDA is doing, but ….

During the years when I regularly pored over the ORDA annual report, that document became increasingly opaque.

Unsure if this was already shared elsewhere on NYSB.... if it was, please delete. Recap of the FISU games. Sounds like there's blame to go around, not just ORDA.

LoL
No big surprise
What is surprising is they terminated the contract due to, "not timely work completion". Right, because ORDA is always on schedule. What a joke.

I don't fully understand, or I missed it?

If the contractor was canned for being behind on the project, who is finishing the job?
