Banff Springs Hotel Staff reunion
1985
Anonymous: The Upper Annex where the tunnel goes underneath to get to Moo's was where I lived. The second floor (below the womens' floor) right above the tunnel was my room and it had a bay window and my room mate pulled some strings to get it to be a two-person room from three. We had some great parties!
I was there when Petrac ran the show. Sure enough he did elicit a 'look busy' in people in his path. Chef Luthy was there along with Mike Bird, F & B Manager.

Additional note about motorcyclist from Clover King:
I recognize that red bike suit anywhere! That's
Spencer, he was a lifer. Nice guy.
I was there through the nightmare Olympics, left as a Rundle Rag.
James - Night House Man
Love your site. I worked as a night house man for about 10
months in 1985 right after high school. Great memories, fun times, beautiful
location! A fantastic adventure. 2 of my co workers had direct ghostly
encounters I will never forget!
My roomy ( in the upper Annex # 206? ) Mike and I used to take our acoustics and
play in the tunnel between the annex and the hotel...everyone loved it and I'm
sure a few would remember us as well. I've been back only once and although the
hotel has been modified it still has the same charm!
Cheers,
James
Question:
My name is Corbin Kelley and my grandmother Joan Kelley, formerly Joan Bennison recalls going to a wedding with her mother for what she says was the owner of the hotel's child. I am just wondering if anyone remembers such an event and what the name of the hotel owner was at that time?
