I believe I mentioned this on here before but I have 15 discounted tickets (5, 3 packs) the mountain is allowing me to sell to Magic 1st timers. They are not suppose to be transferable but in an effort to help out the marketing dept these are.

If the Magic regulars have someone who wants to give it a try for the first time, feel free to lure them in with a $40 ticket. Going to have to be on the honor system here & I am not making a penny off these. Paid $600 up front. Good any day of the season.

So if you have a 1st timer on the fence & a $40 ski day will get them to the mountain, hit me up. My goal is 15 NEW skiers.

Woo Hoo!

I've never been... all these posts make me want to go. I've got a friend who is looking to do a little skiing on the cheap this year and has also never been to magic... If I could get two of those tickets from you, you'll get TWO new skiers at Magic this year... PM me!

Nice, you'll like it there!

This grassroots marketing campaign by the friends of Magic seems to be working well! :beer:

WJenness you have a PM. Thanks!

bvibert, it seems to be. That is really nice to hear. Love all the positivity surrounding the mountain. Thank you!

Lastly let’s give a big AZ shout out to Candace who will be running the learning center this year. Welcome aboard Candace! :spread:

you know what this means.. there will be a lift line to wait in now :roll:

Oh C'mon they won't be that bad... besides what ever wait you have just inceases the anticipation for the next run:D I'd love to see enough people show that they would have to run both lifts once black is back online:spread:

Better a lifline & open than no liftline & closed. Besides, Magic liftlines are fun. Back in the 80's they used to ask Trivial Pursuit questions to the crowd & throw Twix bars to the skier that answered it correctly.

Hoping to bring something like that back. Certainly don't hold me to that as I know the mountain has limited spending/personel & it's not @ all up to me. Just an old idea that made the wait fun.

Ohh man.... those pictures... can't wait to get some more snow :) the woods are looking sooooooo good this year :) I have been popping Magic cherries for 4 years now! Everyone I bring up there loves it! and the lift line might be 10 minutes... but the slopes stay uncrowded.

I need to get a powder day at Magic this year.

re: Lift lines. When I first got to Magic last season I took my first ride up the lift and was grumbling to myself that it was too slow. After a few runs I was actually glad it was that slow because I was dog tired from those runs. This is funny because this almost never happens to me, I can pretty much "go" all day. Those trails at Magic really push you!

Starting to snow here in Albany! Let's hope it is on Glebe and keeps up for the week to give us an awesome Saturday opening day.
