Origin Story

218 Days is the brainchild of Sara Zeleznikar, Director of Sales at Odyssey Resorts. Born and raised in northern Minnesota, she recently spent 5+ years in Colorado before returning to 218. She realized how unique Northern Minnesota is during her time in the mountains. Upon her return, she was laser focused on celebrating that uniqueness. The team at Odyssey Resorts felt the same way. When the idea was pitched, they were all in.
