As you sit at the office thinking of plans for the weekend, it may be a toss up between taking the golf clubs out on the back 9 or taking a trip north to enjoy the last few turns of the season. Sure, your "to do" list may seem a bit overwhelming with the upcoming Easter Holiday (don't forget to pick up the spiral ham!), but I have a solution that will make everyone in your family, especially you, absolutely thrilled.
Turn this sunny April weekend into a short New Hampshire family vacation- Loon Mountain has an action packed weekend full of events, apres ski parties, and, you guessed it- SUN! Be sure to arrive early at your lodging facility Friday night- if you arrive early enough, swing by the Bunyan Room at Loon for the ever-so-popular Guinness Promo! Be sure to get some rest, however, the registration for the Slush Pool Party starts at 9am on Saturday in the Bunyan Room--this is a popular event and is sure to put a smile on EVERYONE'S faces in the family- bring Grandma, she'll love it too!
After testing the waters (and hopefully not sinking into them) at the Slush Pool party and enjoying some of the finest New Hampshire skiing around, don't forget to grab a cold, smooth draft at the Bunyan Room with our friends from Coors Light- prizes, music, and fun are all on the docket for some end-of-the-day fun! Grab some dinner at one of the amazing restaurants in town to curb your appetite and hit the hay- it's going to be an early day on Sunday!
The Easter Sunrise Service rivals any holiday service offered- Reverend Skip Schwartz is always entertaining, inspiring, and comical. The gondola starts loading passengers at (gulp!) 5:30am and will only load until 6:15, so be sure to get there on time! I must say, it is an incredibly peaceful journey to the summit at such an early hour! The service begins promptly at 6:30am at the summit. Following the service, light refreshments will be served in the Summit Cafe before skiers and boarders head down for the first of first tracks, that's for sure! Grandma, Grandpa, even Uncle Harry, or anyone who is not a skier or boarder can download the gondola and meet the rest of the family at the Octagon Lodge for PANCAKE BREAKFAST WITH THE EASTER BUNNY! Yes, you heard it right here- the Octagon Lodge will host the EASTER BUNNY for breakfast at 7:30! Before your friends have even started to make breakfast for the family, you have covered the services, breakfast, AND first tracks! The Easter Bunny and your favorite NH ski resort, Loon Mountain, have it all covered!
After a delightful pancake breakfast, join in on the Egg Hunt starting at 9am on Lower Bear Claw! A treat for all the skiers/riders in your family! If you are still hungry and craving some lunch before heading back on the slopes or for the journey home, stop by the Cornerside Cafe for some phenomenal paninis- leave the cooking and dishes to us!
Problem solved- you CAN have your ham and eat it too. Start a new family tradition for the Easter Holiday weekend! Take advantage of New England ski deals and New Hampshire ski and stay packages this weekend by visiting www.loonmtn.com. There aren't many golf courses that offer a mini New Hampshire family vacation complete with the Easter Bunny, Sunrise Services, and SLUSH POOL fun! I sure wish my parents opted for an Easter Weekend at a New England ski resort instead of a weekend at Grandma's with dinner at the kids' table (yes, until I was 18) with 12 of my cousins....
