Talking about opening day, Nyberg drops the "O" word

Post by skiersleft »

At the town meeting to discuss the damages caused by Irene, Nyberg mentioned that "they plan to open at the end of October or beginning of November weather permitting".

(http://www.killingtontown.com/index.asp ... 2C6580E%7D).

While this doesn't mean much, I don't remember when was the last time that a Killington official publicly said that they would open in October if they can. This is a good sign, especially in light of all the damage caused by Irene.

I think in response to Killington's stated "Under promise and over deliver", and their willingness to slam the doors shut in the spring, my outlook will be

"Under expect and over appreciate".

That works post Irene as well.

people were complaining about people asking when stuff will open, etc...based on what the current situation is up there.

Skiersleft, people are not allowed to talk/discuss anything other than the disaster, especially skiing. :roll:

Right. Well, my guess is that Killington opens as planned. Last week in October is my guess. Gotta stay positive.
