Scranton, Lackawanna County -- Debbie Shilenski, of Shavertown couldn't
wait to hit the slopes at Sno Mountain for the first day of skiing and
snowboarding here on Friday. Shielnski says,"fresh air, exercise, and it's
beautiful at the top of the mountain." But perhaps no one was more excited
than 9-year-old Ethan Shilenski, who fancies himself the "pro" of the
group.
Sno Mountain employee
Nancy Kaminski says they've been awaiting this day for several weeks now.
Kaminski says this
season is very important for sno mountain's future, "this season, like
every season, means a lot. We're just happy to be open. We're restructuring,
but we are open for the season, and we're grateful."
People like Debbie Shilenski say the
potential loss of this asset in our area would be devastating,
"that would be
disappointing. This is really convenient for us. All of us bought ski passes
for the year. So hopefully that will help towards their bottom line."
