Play Plinko
The L.L. Bean bootmobile is here at Smuggs as part of their Bootmobile Mountain Tour! The original Bean Boots were designed to help people enjoy the outdoors — and so were their larger-than-life mobile replicas. Their two Bootmobiles have covered more than 350,000 miles, appeared at hundreds of events in 25 states, two countries and dozens of college campuses.
Swing by the Boot to grab some photos, play games, win swag, and have a chance to win a $300 L.L. Bean gift card. They are on-snow, right by the Gazebo! Both Saturday and Sunday this weekend from 10:00 am till 2:00 pm.
Boot toss
I ran into retired longtime Smuggs employees Bob Mulcahy and Barbara Thomke today at the top of the Village Lift. Bob use to be President and Barbara was the Public Relations Director both here at Smuggs. Have you heard of Mulcahy’s Link or Thomke’s Express? It was wonderful to see these two out having fun on the slopes with friends and family.

Bud at the top of the Village Lift
I would like you to meet Bud Conger. Bud has been skiing for 63 years and has been teaching skiing here at Smuggs for 54 years! Three generations of Congers have been instructors here at Smuggs. Bud’s daughter Maureen use to instruct here at Smuggs. Bud and his grandson Brendan are both presenting instructing here at Smuggs. It is great to see Bud out on the slopes having fun, he is truly an inspiration.
