Greeting Lodge Owners,
      We’ve already picked up 6-7” Wednesday night, and the storm is such
that we’re looking at 16” by Friday morning! It looks to be the best skiing
we’ve seen all year! So if you’re looking for a reason to bust out of work
early and spend some time on the hill, this is it!! This weekend we're
rocking out with the whole enchilada, skiing all 45 trails, with 25 groomed
fresh!  So come on out, and let's get this season back into gear! 

Sincerely,

Neal  <mailto:neal at madriverglen.com> Berwick

Discount Lodging Voucher Program - Sign up Today! 
  <http://www.madriverglen.com/email.tmp/ss_lnsep.jpg> 


Mad River Glen is a big part of what makes central Vermont such a unique and
special place. Our goal is to make the Mad River Glen ski experience as
accessible as possible to your customers. Discount ticket vouchers are
available for lodges that wish to package tickets with other products or
services, or simply want to offer the discounted tickets as a convenience to
their customers.

The best part of the program is how easy it is for you and your guests.
There is no up-front cost to you and there is absolutely no risk. We provide
the vouchers at no charge, and bill you only after the vouchers have been
redeemed for lift tickets. Invoices are normally sent out once a month
during the ski season. As an off-site ticket agent, you will receive a 10%
commission on all voucher sales. If you are interested in the program
contact us at neal at madriverglen.com  and I will send you all the
information. Keep in mind that you will never be charged for unsold
vouchers.  Mad River Glen point of purchase banners and other promotional
materials are available for free to all off-site ticket agents. Please let
me know if you would like any of these materials.

If you have any questions, or if you have thoughts about how Mad River Glen
can better work together with you, please feel free to give me a call at
(802) 496-3551, ext. 110 or I look forward to seeing you up on the mountain
and wish you the best of luck this winter.


MRG History Page
  <http://www.madriverglen.com/email.tmp/ss_lnsep.jpg> 


     Did you know that MRG had a history page?  Well we do.  Point your
browsers to http://madriverglen.com/ski_museum/ to take a look.  Not only is
there some interesting story behind the area but we managed to dig up some
nice shots of MRG from the VT ski museum as well.  Besides, if you think
Route 17 is bad now, wait till you see a shot of it then!  


MRG Weather  <http://madriverglen.com/?Page=weatherx.php> Page

     Also, if you havn't taken a gander at it yet, MRG also has a new
weather page.  We have two meteorologists this year, Josh Fox and Roger
Hill, sending us detailed MRG specific weather forecasts, along with some
radar and thermal images at the bottom of the page.  Check it out at
