New Goals

As we are starting the New Year 2013, I’ve been thinking about goals. Every year, millions of people sit down and carefully choose where they want to go in life and how they’re going to get there.

Take Jim Layton, for example. His list just got a new checkmark, but you’ll never guess what for, even though 649 other people were right there with him. You can find out here.

As you’re thinking about what you want to accomplish next year, please remember that I’m always honored when someone trusts me to help them achieve an important goal. If I can help you in any way, please just let me know.

Best,
Irene

Things to do in the Mountains

I love Vermont! Even when the slopes are bare there are many activities to attend, from sporting events to outdoor music concerts. We are fortunate in this area that so many opportunities exist. Every weekend you can choose from Stratton’s Saturday under the Stars Concert Series or Killington’s Its Cooler in the Mountains Concert Series or Okemos’ Friday Night Jackson Gore Concert Series. Pull up a chair, bring a blanket and get your groove on at these free events.

Looking for other interesting events? Stratton is hosting a Motorcycle Rally on August 20^th that has a host of activities beyond two wheels – BBQ, Gondola Rides, Vendors and Live Music! If you feel like travelling a bit further, check out the 16^th Annual Vermont Garlic and Herb Festival in Bennington on September 3^rd. Taste everything from Garlic Ice Cream to Garlic Margaritas!

Trying to stay in shape for the coming ski season? The 100 on 100 Relay on August 13^th might be for you. Runners from across the country converge on the Green Mountain state each August for this long distance relay along scenic Route 100 ending at Okemo Mountain. Running races in New England are increasing in popularity and Vermont races put on by Heart of Vermont Productions are looking to lead the way.

Or check out the Eastern States Cup DH Race at Mount Snow on August 20. The final downhill mountain bike race of the season, registration includes lift service for practice on Saturday and race day on Sunday. Beginners to pro races welcome – and of course it’s free to spectate!

One of my favorite activities is to stroll through one of Vermont’s beautiful villages taking in the sights, shopping and visiting local restaurants. Woodstock, Chester and Weston are three of my favorites and I encourage you to plan a visit. This area is rich with diverse activities and you will be sure to find something for everyone.

Until next time, Irene
