Killington Wine Festival

Killington Wine Festival

The last couple of days, neither Mary or I have had a chance to get out on the mountain. From listening to our guests, it does not sound like much has changed as temperatures have been in the cold side. Hopefully tomorrow we will have a chance to get out for a few turns.

The good news is that it is not the cold that is keeping us away, it's the work. In the last few days, I have started to turn my attention towards business in the summer. Planning activities for the Killington Wine Festival, which I project manage for the Killington Chamber of Commerce, has started in earnest. This years festival will be held from Friday July 17th through Sunday July 19th if you want to save the dates. Over the next few months you will be hearing more about the Wine Festival as it comes together.

I have also attended a few meetings for the Killington Classic Motorcycle Touring Rally. This years rally is schedule to take place from September 10 through September 13th. It is being coordinated through the Town of Killington's newly formed department of Economic Development and Tourism. You will hear more about the Killington Classic later this spring.

All of these activities will help attract people to Killington and our inn over the summer months, and that of course is a good thing. Thank God, however, that neither of the last 2 days were powder days..so it goes!......Let it snow!
