Grand Teton Lodge Company, owned by Vail Resorts, has donated $600,000 to Grand Teton National Park Foundation since 1999 making the lodging group the largest and one of the longest running corporate partners in Foundation history.  Foundation President Leslie Mattson says gifts from Lodge Company properties—Jackson Lake Lodge, Jenny Lake Lodge, and Jackson Hole Golf and Tennis—originate through a voluntary program that allows guests to contribute $1 per night of their stay to the Foundation’s work in the park.  The gifts she says includes in-kind services provided by the group as well.  This support she says has enabled the Foundation to accomplish an extensive list of visitor service, education, and improvement projects and assists the park in offering high-quality interpretation, recreation, and education to visitors.
