November 19, 2004 – The Trapp Family Lodge announced today that it is
beginning a three year sponsorship of the New England Nordic Ski Association
(NENSA). The deal makes the Lodge the Official Premier Resort of NENSA and
places the Lodge among NENSA’s impressive list of sponsors: Banknorth,
L.L.Bean, and Buderus Heating Systems.

“The partnership is a natural” said NENSA Executive Director, Max Cobb.
“The Trapp Family Lodge founded the modern ski touring center in 1968 when
they opened their now world-famous trail network. Together with the Lodge
there is just no better place to enjoy a cross country ski holiday.”

This past weekend the NENSA Board of Directors kicked of the sponsorship by
meeting at the Trapp Family Lodge and enjoyed the inspiring atmosphere and
spectacular new meeting rooms.

Charlie Yerrick, Nordic Director of the Trapp Family Touring Center, saw
this partnership as a natural fit given the Lodge’s history and commitment
to providing world-class cross-country ski experiences and NENSA’s
commitment to providing programs and competitions for skiers of every age
and ability.

NENSA looks forward to hosting events at the Trapp Family Lodge and Touring
Center and members will be eligible for special offers when they visit the
Lodge. Check www.nensa.net for more information or visit the Trapp Family
