HIT YOUR REFRESH BUTTON IN STOWE, VERMONT
Winter packages feature Vacation Reward Program ski specials

(September 27, 2007) Stop. Rewind. Recharge. Renew. REFRESH. In this digital age, we often sit at our computers and press the key to REFRESH our screen. But this winter, it’s time to take yourself away from that computer and into the uncommonly revitalizing Stowe, Vermont. Maybe for you, it’s chasing away those post-holiday blues, or mid-winter blahs. Praying for summer? That won’t get it here any quicker…you need a winter REFRESH, in a place that epitomizes refreshing.

Your personal RERESH may be very different from the next person, but your options in Stowe in winter are countless and varied. Stowe is home to world-class destination spas that you can melt into. Shops to browse—all locally owned and unique. Horse-drawn sleigh rides, moonlight snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, sledding with man’s best friends, and of course downhill skiing and riding. Not to mention, all food in Stowe is comfort food, with a great variety of cuisines and nearly 40 restaurants to choose from.

In January, discover classical Stowe-- just a bit quieter, and every bit as vibrant; February you’ll find families and couples rockin’ Stowe Mountain Resort. After all, Stowe is the home of Jake Carpenter, of Burton fame. March brings the bluest skies, longer, sunnier days. Winter dancing in the snow. BBQ’s on the deck. This is winter?

To entice you, Stowe is offering the REFRESH YOURSELF SKI PACKAGE all winter long. Stowe Mountain Resort, the premier ski destination in the east, is offering The Vacation Rewards Program, which offers incentives galore:
- Save 15% off regular rates on multi-day lift tickets when you buy your tickets seven days or more in advance.
- Added value for a 2 or 3 day Adult or Senior ticket (not available during holiday periods) includes a choice of a two-hour ski or snowboard demo or a Quick-Tune for your skis or snowboard.
