Awesome Quote

By: Brian Church, V.P. Business Development

A very good friend of mine passed this quote along a couple of weeks ago. I love it because it is so descriptive of what students and employees experience at all of the Aspiro programs. This quote is a perfect precursor to our next blog entry by Dan LeMaire which will be posted later today or tomorrow. I thought I would share it with all for your enjoyment:

"Everest is a pressure cooker that forces us into rigorous self-examination. Part of Everest's magic rests in the painful reality we find inside us. Everest exposes things about ourselves we often successfully hide at more reasonable altitudes."

"The larger question is ultimately, will we hide from our new self-knowledge, or will we change and grow from it? Most searingly difficult experiences are like this. They are characterized by pain and loss, achievement and gain. The only guarantee of failure comes from our refusal to grow from our new self knowledge."

--Alan Hobsen

Aspiro new base camp offers amazing views

Aspiro Group, Inc. is excited to announce the move from our former (leased) base camp to our new facilities to the south of Salt Lake in Mount Pleasant (near Wasatch Academy).

Compared to our former home, our newly purchased facilities are equidistant from the Salt Lake International Airport in good weather seasons, and 30 minutes closer during the winter months. The move took place two weeks ago.

“Accessibility was an important reason,” said Brian Church, Aspiro Director of Business Development, “but numerous other factors played into the equation. Because we make use of many pristine areas throughout the state of Utah, our new facilities are much more central and will create significant savings in time, fuel, and other expenses. We were also able to secure the perfect scenario with respect to our office/warehouse, and base camp acreage.”

We have a 7,600 square foot facility which is ideal for many purposes including staff offices and conference areas with a cozy fireplace. Within the building is a 4,000 square foot warehouse.

Additionally, we have a 2,100 square foot space for future family workshops and staff trainings.

Within a 12 minute drive from our offices, Aspiro has acquired 120 acres of spectacular land, bordering the National Forest. Our new base camp offers amazing views at its’ higher elevations, and a blank slate for master planned growth well into the future.

As with our old property, students will be at base camp one day every other week, at a minimum (Vantage Point by Aspiro will use base camp 2-4 days/week on avg).

As always, we thank you for your support in this cutting edge high adventure model. We look forward to future consultant visits and sharing the new tools we have at our disposal. We know that this move will assist greatly in the work we love.
