If he's really cool (which I think he is, from all reports), he'll watch the local race team train and offer each kid some specific advice; and the kids will feel super and the parents will feel super. In fact, the money he collects will be well earned, because if done right Bretton Woods will pop way up in visibility to skiers which will translate to the bottom line. Why the hell is Bode mucking around with a snooty NH ski mountain more widely known as the site of historic financial conferences shaping the global economy, when he should be at his home hill: Cannon? Cannon is run by the State of New Hampshire. He would get entry-level civil-servant wages there. |

When was the last time you heard of a state-run ski area even trying to find celebrity endorsements, or running much of anything in the way of high visibility programs? I very much doubt they even approached him; if they had, who's to say he wouldn't have gone for it? It's not like he needs the money. -- :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::: Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, Other days you're the bug. |

Dave I think they're owned by the same folks. Last year we skied the woods for 5 days and were told the lift tickets could be used at BW or Cannon. -- Chuck Remove "_nospam" to reply by email |
