How did we select our name? We'd like to think that we are extraordinarily clever, but we can't take the credit for this one. Built as one of the three original schools in Park City, Utah, the school was named for George Washington. Yes, the Revolutionary known for crossing the Delaware. Though close to going up in flames in Park City's Great Fire of 1898, the hammered limestone facade of the school house survived.
So did the name. After the stock market crash of 1929, enrollment declined and the school house was sold in 1936 to the Veterans of Foreign Wars. It was used for dances and social events until the 50s hmm.

We have a few ideas. If it's cold, think snow - as in snow ski, snowboard, snow tube, snowmobile, snowshoe. You can also fly-fish, ice skate, or ride in a sleigh, hot air balloon, helicopter or luge. If it's warm - swim, bike, hike. Bobsled, fish, hunt. Golf, run, ride (horse, boat, jet ski, kayak, river raft).

Weddings
Report
This is what we do. There is almost nothing that can keep a wedding at Washington School House from being perfect. Maybe it's all the gorgeous white wood, gold gilt, and sterling sterling silver. Maybe it's the beauty of the mountains - stunning crystal white snow in the winter and breathless bluebird skies year round.
Executive Retreats
Report
There is something about this place that is incredibly inspiring. A good place to think big, to ponder, to brainstorm. We think it might be our schoolhouse roots. Or maybe it is thoughts of our namesake, George Washington - the original Revolutionary, inspiring a new generation of revolutionary ideas across all industries.
