Winter Fun Should Always Be Affordable!

For Immediate Release

Shawnee on Delaware, PA- 

In today’s tight economic times, it’s more important than ever to find creative ways to save a few dollars. Let’s face it; we all still want to have the same amount of winter sports fun, we just want it to cost less. This is where group discounts come into play. After all, winter fun should always be affordable!

Shawnee Mountain offers tremendous savings for groups as small as fifteen members. A typical group discount reduces full price tickets by 20%; some savings can be as big as 45% off retail rates. Are you thinking it’s too expensive to try snow sports for the first time?  Think again; all-inclusive “learn to ski or snowboard” packages which normally sell for $80.00 can be purchased at an incredible $59.00 through Group Sales. 

Forming a group of fifteen or more is easy. You’re likely already connected to a club or organization such as a church, recreation center or scouts where you share similar interests with others.  Social networking makes promoting a winter outing to the mountain even easier. Call, text, tweet and Facebook your social group, friends and family to get organized. Remember, it only takes 14 plus you to save big.

Shawnee Mountain Group Sales also offers discount opportunities during two annual scout events, Girl Scout Day in early January and the Pocono Scout Weekend in early March. These events not only offer significantly reduced rates; they do not require a minimum group size.  You can participate alone or with a group of scouts.

Additional group information on one-day trips, overnight outings and special group events can be found on the Group Sales web page at www.shawneemt.com or by contacting Group Sales directly at (570) 421-7231 ext. 223.
