Joelle Varnum Over the past several years, the Grand Summit HOA Executive Board researched, interviewed and put together a room renovation project team with the experience to successfully complete the upcoming room renovation. We now have an opportunity to look ahead and plan for a future where owners can enjoy modern fixtures and furnishings while the stature and reputation of the Grand Summit can grow among guests and the Boyne family of resorts.
