Mount Holly Snow Flyers Seeking Golf Teams for Annual Outing

Mount Holly, Vermont – August 26, 2025 – The Mount Holly Snow Flyers snowmobile club is putting out a final call for teams to join its annual golf outing on Friday, September 12, 2025, at the Killington Golf Course. The club is a few teams shy of a full roster and is encouraging local golfers to sign up and help support their mission.

The event offers a unique chance to golf in the scenic Green Mountains of Vermont during the early pre-foliage season. Proceeds from the outing will directly benefit the club's trail system, which is used year-round for hiking, biking, and snowmobiling. Funds also support various community projects and the club's scholarship program.

"This golf outing is one of our most important fundraisers of the year," said Groomer operator, Mike Poulin, of the Mount Holly Snow Flyers. "Your participation helps us maintain our trails and give back to the community we love."

In addition to team registrations, there are still opportunities for businesses and individuals to support the event through green sponsorships and by donating items for the event's auction.

To register a team, secure a sponsorship, or donate an auction item, please contact Kim Lampert at 802-259-3877 (after 6 p.m.) or email the Mount Holly Snow Flyers at www.mounthollysnowflyers.org.

The Mount Holly Snow Flyers is a non-profit snowmobile club dedicated to maintaining an extensive trail system in Mount Holly, Vermont. The club works to promote safe and responsible trail use, support local community initiatives, and provide scholarships to local students. We maintain/groom over 50 miles of trails in the area and have been around since 1976.

Maple Monday!

Welcome to this weeks edition of Maple Monday! And we've got a new recipe to share with you to get your week started in the right direction!

Summer produce is still going strong. Veggies are abundant making meal prep fun and delicious. Nothing like a plate or two of fresh veggies from the garden or your local farmer.

This week the recipe is probably one of the easiest ones we've shared. Caprese Salad with Maple Balsamic Reduction. Sounds complicated, but trust me, it's easy enough you'll be having this more than once this week! Use fresh tomatoes, fresh basil, and fresh mozzarella along with our maple syrup, and you can't go wrong.

This salad pairs nicely with a Maple Roasted Chicken. We'll have fresh chicken available in the farm stand this week, so be sure to grab one to round out your meal!

Our website is always open for your shopping convenience. Shop anytime day or night. Bring a taste of our Vermont maple into your home. You shop, we'll ship!
