Bring a Never-Ever Friend
From January 3 to 31, participating Vermont resorts will offer your friend or family member a free beginner package with the purchase of your full-day, adult lift ticket. Time to get your never-ever buddies out on the slopes the right way! That is, by not taking them to the top of the mountain yourself for their first-ever ski run. (If I had a nickel for every horror story I heard that started like that...) <link http: www.skivermont.com events-and-deals program-bring-friend external-link-new-window>Read up on this freebie offer here.
Two-fer-One
A slight twist on the aforementioned package is this two-for-one deal: Get a free beginner package with the purchase of one full-priced beginner’s package. This would likely be a true bonding experience for you and a friend! The beginner package includes a free learn to ski or snowboard lesson, rental equipment and a beginner lift ticket. They say advance reservations are recommended. <link http: www.skivermont.com events-and-deals program-two-for-one external-link-new-window>Follow this link for details on participating resorts, etc.
I love the word "free" — don't you?
