Tonya Sweeten Vice President of Group Sales
Tonya's Park City journey began with a snowmobile rental and guide business, a testament to her entrepreneurial spirit. With over 30 years in Summit County and having served as a sales executive for corporate incentive trips, she is an authority on why Park City is the perfect choice for meetings and incentives. A Las Vegas native, she moved to southern Utah as a teenager and developed a deep love for the state's deserts. Her summers are filled with boating and camping on Lake Powell, while she embraces the beauty of Park City's winters with snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. What I love about Park City: “The summers are amazing, so much to do! My personal favorite is golfing on our picturesque courses that look like scenes from a postcard. You will want to spend as much time as possible outdoors.”
