Hey Folks,

I live in Francestown and just started getting email notices from the Central Mass Ski Group as I belong to the Piscataquog club.

The snow has been totally awesome. Keep up the great work. I'm telling everyone I see to get themselves over to Crotched. It's too good a secret to keep to myself!!

Thanks!
Kate Wescott
