Effective Sunday, March 22: We had hoped to keep some trails groomed as long as the snow allowed, but we now feel forced to close for the following reasons:

• Skiers are not keeping “social distance” (6 ft) from each other. This is critical behavior for all of us to follow at all times.

• Skiers are gathering in groups to socialize. Even a group smaller than 10 people is at increased risk of sharing germs.

• We appear to be attracting folks from outside our VT community and this does not seem like a good idea at this time.

So, effective Sunday, March 22, we will no longer groom our trails and we ask you not to come to ski. We do this in the best interest of the health of the COC community. Stay healthy!
