I hope this fast note finds you, at minimum, in good spirits and ready to start moving around a little wider than you likely have been these past several months. While we’ve had to temporarily part with a large index of our team members, I have been here at the mountain since March 6th, trying to keep an eye on things and doing my best to stay safe and somewhat sane. Like all of us, some days are easier than others.
With the State of Vermont slowly reducing and eliminating the restrictions on travel and commerce and summer starting come into a more obvious focus, we here at Jay Peak have also started to put together options for visiting now, visiting later and reconnecting to what it is that connects us.
Our present plan is to open The Jay Peak Championship Golf Course on June 5th. We have a limited supply of Golf Season Passes that we’ve reduced in price by more than 50% - you can take a look HERE if you’d like to get involved.
We plan on opening our Hotel Jay for Golf Vacation packages beginning after June 15th and we just barely launched a new Jay Peak Relocation Vacation package that includes a month’s worth of lodging, a golf season pass and access to our heated in-ground pool and patio area for about what you’d spend for just a weekend across many other spots – details are available at jaypeakresort.com/deals.
And, of course, the best rates on our 2020+21 Winter Jay Peak Season Passes are available through June 8th at which time you’ll only have to pay a $25 deposit to guarantee these early and best rates. We’ll wait two months to charge your credit card for the remaining amount and you’ll be covered through October 1st if you need a refund for any reason. When you purchase by the June 8th deadline you’ll also get a lift ticket for the 2020+21 season to share so you and a friend can spend some time exploring winter or spring in the best of all possible places.
To help physically distance any concerns you might have relative to cleanliness protocols, operating environments and our general level of commitment to our guests, you can learn more about our policies and processes in the Jay Peak EverClean Program. It’s equal parts operating manifesto and a book of enhanced cleanliness and functioning standards that will add multiple layers of security and safety while retaining the same spirit that keeps us all coming back and keeping on.
And finally, there will be a Jay Peak Winter. And us being us, and you being you, chances are you’ll be a part of it. We also have every reason to believe that the concept of future mindedness can be a source of joy if we know good things are coming and travel is an especially good thing to look forward to.
I just jumped off the Aria Las Vegas site only minutes before writing this and I can tell you, first-hand, that trip planning—not even the booking yet—can raise spirits. This isn’t a recommendation for playing 48 hours of poker so much as it is a suggestion to start thinking about this winter now. Click through, poke around, check out what we think are some of the most relaxed cancellation policies in the business and start dreaming whatever dreams you need to, to get you to next winter.
All the best,
Steve
