FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PARK CITY’S AUTUMN ALOFT TO CEASE OPERATIONS
Park City, UT (March 29, 2023) – Park City’s Autumn Aloft will no longer take flight each September, announces Autumn Aloft organizing committee.
“More than anything, the Autumn Aloft organizing committee is grateful for the community support received throughout the duration - from sponsors that worked with us from day one including the Marsh family from 501 on Main and Crafted, ReMax, the Summit County Restaurant Tax Grant, Park City Chamber, the Park City School District and Park City Municipal, to our dedicated crew of pilots, and energetic crew of volunteers that returned year after year. It was a joy to produce each year,” shares Monty Coates, Autumn Aloft Organizing Committee Chair.
Autumn Aloft was revived in 2014 thanks to the hard work and dedication of a small organizing committee; committee chair and Park City business owner Monty Coates, Park City Chamber/Bureau VP of Special Events Bob Kollar, the Historic Park City Alliance, Balllonmeister Mike Bauwens and event and marketing consultant Meisha Ross worked tirelessly year-round for nine years to organize, promote and manage the event.
Longtime event organizer Meisha Ross stepped down from the role of event manager after the 2022 event. Following Ross’ departure, the Historic Park City Alliance and committee chair Monty Coates explored several options to replace the event manager or find a new organization to host the event. The searches for a new event manager and organizational hosts were both unsuccessful.
