leave their work behind.

Gagnon admits he falls into
this category.

Perhaps when he establish-
es full-time residency at
Whistler later this year he'll be
able to relax. But that’s not
likely.

Gagnon and Crooks have
their hands full soliciting spa
memberships and promoting
investment opportunities with
the company.

They're hoping that a num-
ber of Whistler residents and
frequent visitors will shell out
$6,000 for a five-year mem-
bership. (After September the
price goes up to $6,000 a year.)
Gagnon is confident the con-
cept will catch on.

Once the Whistler spa is up
and running, he sees Le Spa de
Montagne at other resort loca-
tions." .

la, duplication is where the
