Does that mean it has been 10 years since the other chat area ended?

10 years? Man, we need to get a life.

It's because of meeting people through this (and the old k-chat) site I feel like K is a second home.

Congrats and thanks, admins!

Could you share the history for us new comers? Who's idea was it? Who were the founders?

I've had a lot of fun here and learned a ton about Killington and love reading some of the political stuff too. There are some bright people on here. Next step is to meet some of you at K. Thanks again.
Founders were the four admins plus a fifth who is no longer active. As for the history, it started as a replacement for the old Killington Chat Room that was run by the resort up until about a couple of days before this site started. The Chat Room was managed by then Director of Communications, Steve Wright. Steve left Killington and went to Jay Peak and his successor had neither the time nor the inclination (stomach?) to run the room. While Steve was able to keep things reasonably under control, his successor did not and when Killington revamped their website, they took the opportunity to kill the Chat Room. This site was up and running several days later at the latest and has been running ever since.

This is actually Killington Chat #2. SS started another chat and set it up but then was led to this format, closing his original site.
