Hey Heather-
I read your column and thought it was awesome. Thank you so much for that. The event is going to be fun and we'll raise a nice sum for the Maine Cancer Foundation.
Both of your columns were really good. It's looking like the event may 'sell out.'
So thanks again for your support.
-Bill Swain
Sugarloaf Communications Director
Heather -
Wow! Nice turn-around. Thanks for the great coverage. Now if we could just get every visiting journalist to turn things around this quickly and get stories placed in uber-high circulation outlets…
You and Greg rule. Thanks again!
-Nathan Rafferty
Ski Utah President
