I think @beginnerskier96 is in England. Believe it or not, tons of Brits come to Killington during school vacation in March.

I hadn't noticed the location is Surrey. Nice catch.

Killington is always reaching out to ski schools to recruit for extra instructors to help with the brit influx. One of these years I'm going to do it. #willwork4liftickets

The Ministry are currently looking for additional staff.

We need some brains in the group to offset the @James and @mdf Ministry of Bad Ideas contingent.

I know someone up that neck of the woods that would fill the position nicely. Not much brain but still got the stupidity of youth.

You guys could take a trip to River Roost Brewery in White River if you’re beer nuts. Though I wonder if Worthy Kitchen in Woodstock sells it.
If someone stays over there, they should bring back an apple pie from Mountain Creamery.

Wendy,

S Brown promised to join us this year at the gathering. You should remind her of that

 

[ScottB]

I will bring MDFs old skis, maybe they will have a few BAD ideas left in them.

They will have adjustable bindings at least

Excellent memory! Yes, @SBrown did say that in last year's trip-report thread:

Ok, I do need to get there next year. I've been meaning to go, it will be my niece's last year in VT, plus my cousin lives in Warren anyway. Hold me to it! I keep getting distracted by chasing 2ft storms in Taos and it's so much closer....

Sunday March 29 is the Demo the old Killington Base lodge party. Last day the lodge will be open before the wrecking ball.

 

[SBrown]

You guys suck.

That mean we can take a whack at it with a sledge?

We will see but at least it will be the last day to get a drink at the Mahogany Ridge Bar.

 

[Josh Matta]

Honestly @SBrown wait till its back in Northern Vermont, I hear the guiding is better!

 

[James]

That's become a phrase to use just about anywhere. "Where r you skiing now?"
- "Oh, I'm going to take blah , blah, blah, and ski Mahogany Ridge."

Honestly @SBrown wait till its back in Northern Vermont, I hear the guiding is better!

By the third day it's down to the usual suspects. If there's a fourth day, even some of them are out on bail.

Oh great. Where's my cloak?

Edit: If you need me that day, I'll be up in Warren with Susan's cousin. We'll be skiing somewhere quiet. Then he or she is going to take me to the Pitcher Inn, if it's still there. And if I'm still, you know, ambulatory.

Yeah, I am pretty sure my cousin's wife and some of the daughter cousins work there... Ok, just need to see if niece is around that week ...
