FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BIGGEST SAVINGS ON SEASON PASSES AVAILABLE THROUGH SEPT. 30
BROWNSVILLE, Vt. (September 2006) – Those who are in search of the less expensive way to ski or ride, Ascutney will again offer its successful Advantage Season Pass, which provides skiing and riding to the pass holder this season for only $249/adult and $219/juniors and seniors, if purchased by the deadline, Sept. 30, 2006. The Premier Pass, an unlimited access pass, also is available for $679/adult and $569/juniors and seniors.
"There aren't many places, if any, where you can ski or ride for under $250 all season long," said Bill Henne, director of marketing. "The pass allows our guests to enjoy the whole mountain Sunday through Friday nonholiday. It's a great way to get loads of skiing in while beating the crowds. Ski for less than half a dozen times and the pass has paid for itself. It's just one of our great deals this season."
The popular MAX Card is available again this year, and with it, skiers and riders can save up to 50 percent off full day lift tickets midweek, weekends and holidays. Guests purchase the card for $89 and present it each time they purchase a full day lift ticket at the ticket window, to receive the savings.
College students are in luck, because Ascutney offers one of the best deals in the country - $99 season passes. The affordable college pass is available to both undergraduate & graduate students with a valid student ID. Valid everyday all season long with no blackout dates, the college pass is only $99 if purchased before Nov. 30, 2006.
"We continue to upgrade and enhance the entire resort, both in the Village and on the mountain," said Henne. "Imagine skiing for less than $30 mid-winter on a Saturday or during a holiday period. It's unheard of, but can easily be done with the MAX Card. Our value passes and programs are the best way to experience the new snowmaking and grooming upgrades and special programming."
