Jay Peak Resort: Raising ‘Em Jay, Starting ‘Em Young

This is a great little story over at the Jay Peak Resort Weblog

Raising ‘Em Jay, Starting ‘Em Young:

“Throughout the month of January we asked all new parents at North Country Hospital in Newport if they wanted to be entered in a draw to win a lifetime season pass for their new babe.  Not surprisingly, they were all keen.  On Friday, we randomly selected a winner – young Alexander Jensen who will, for the rest of his life, have free access to Jay Peak.  We’re also throwing in 5 years of ski and/or snowboard lessons and 5 years of equipment rental to get him started on the right foot.  When our EmStarr called to give his parents the good news his mom said ‘Is this a joke?’.  Once she was persuaded she wasn’t being pranked, a very excited mom-Jensen compared winning the lifetime season pass to winning the lottery.  Aw shucks.

Congrats Alexander, our First Skier of the New Year.”

What a fantastic idea….
