We've scheduled another Wine Tasting for the Lodge on March 20th.  Ken and Stacy are hosting the event.  Instruction Day is that day as well. Note: If you are interested in race training, go to the NASTAR course on Lower Blackout.  You can make unlimited runs on the race course between 10 and 2 for $10 and coaching will be provided. Check with Annie Alden for details.

A big thank you goes out to Milli Arnold and her crew for hosting our St. Patrick's Day Dinner.  We were entertained by some very talented Irish Dancers.

We had a great time at the lodge for St. Pat's weekend.  Big thanks to Sharon Houck and team of helpers especially Pete , Nancy and Jonathan for their culinary skills.  Check out the pictures!  Nancy Nason made a soda bread that had members asking for the recipe.  Here it is.

Looks like everyone had a terrific time at Sunday River!  Thanks to Kay and others for submitting these photos.  New photos have been added.

 Lip Sync is April 21st.  John Ewen is looking for acts. 

CT Breast Health Initiative, Walk in the Park. Join team MTL Skiers on Saturday,May 8 to support breast cancer research. Log into www.ctraceinthepark.org and then go to our team site - MTL Skiers to register. Cost is $26 for adults but pledges from yourself, family and friends can also be added. It appears that the walk is shorter this year, only 2 miles, so we hope more can join our team this year. There are also options for 5 K runs for men or women which start at different times. Charlotte Le Clair and Rick Sullivan

Personal note from your webmaster Pat Moore:  At the 2008 NASTAR National Championships in Steamboat history was made.  For the first time a racer is National Champion in more than one category.  I won the Men's 60-64 Snowboard title and followed it up with the Men's 60-64 Gold Division Skiing title.   Ski Racing Magazine made note of the achievement. While out there I maintained an online diary.  Plan on joining me at the Nationals next year!   

Your website has been in existence since 1999.  I found a site that archives old webpages and was able to find how our site looked in 2003.  Update:  I was able to find an archive of our site from 1997 when Todd Sun maintained it.  Check it out!

 The Killington Trike Race is only a memory but you can relive those memories! Check out the Blues Brothers and Blues Babes Tribute Page!  Woo Hoo!!  Neal Fisher has just submitted a recap of our 1995 entry.  You gotta read this one.  It's amazing we even went on to a third year after this!  More photos soon!

Have you ever visited the MTL Videos page?  Some of them have audio so turn down your speakers if you're at work.
