FRIDAY, APRIL 6
SUNSET PAVILION | 11:00am TO 1:00pm
Shannon Bahrke was born and raised in Lake Tahoe, CA and moved to Salt Lake City, UT
in 1998 to pursue her dreams of making the U.S. Ski Team and ultimately compete for the
USA at the Winter Olympic Games. She made the U.S. Ski Team that very same year and
had continued success for the next twelve years. She competed on 6 World Championship
Teams, 3 Olympic Teams, brought home 2 Olympic Medals, 7 World Cup Wins,
1 Overall World Cup Ti tle and 6 National Titles.
Since her retirement in 2010 she and her husband, Matt, started up and in 2013 sold their
first company, Silver Bean Coffee. She now has her plate full again with a 4-year-old little girl
named Zoe, a little boy due in June, working as a Ski Champion for Deer Valley and a recently
launched corporate team building and inspiration company called Team Empower Hour!
Enjoy aloha Friday with mother, author and Olympic medalist, Shannon
Bahrke Happe. Join us near our resort pool for a book reading of her
latest children’s novel, “Mommy Why Is Your Hair Pink?”. Afterwards,
we invite guests of Montage Kapalua Bay to meet and talk story with
Shannon about her journey to becoming an inspirational Olympic athlete,
first-time book author and motivated entrepreneur. All in the midst of
being a mother first, her goal is to live a fit, active and healthy lifestyle.
Bring your camera to take photos with her and even wear her medals.
