FPF members are reaching out on their Forums to find others who might enjoy some shared winter fun.
Consider using FPF as a source to make the best of the season!
“Is there already a group of women who gather midweek to cross-country ski or snowshoe in Waterbury or Stowe? If so, I’d love to learn about it and join.
If there is no group and you would like to be part of a group, I will create one. Simply email me in response and let me know if you are a skier, snowshoe enthusiast, or both. Thinking once a week, up to 2 hours of snow fun.”

“I am a very good but not obsessive Scrabble player and would like to find others in the area who also enjoy the game. Perhaps we could have a once or twice monthly game. Please contact me if interested, along with what day of the week you’d prefer.”

“Hi Brandon! I bought an uphill pass at SnowBowl, and would love to check out Brandon Gap or join folks at Blueberry Hill (I have XC skis, too). I’m not super fast, but I have experience and would love company.”

“Is there a community here that enjoys kayaking in the winter? 🥶 I want to try it out but all the articles I read advise going out with others for safety. Let me know if anyone does, any tips?”
• Natalie, Shelburne Forum
“Looking for acoustic musicians and harmonious vocalists. I have a living-room type rehearsal space in the New North End with guitars, bass, keyboards, pedal steel, congas, and mics. I’d like to get together once or twice a month in a relaxed atmosphere to share some tunes and – most importantly – have fun. While I’m deeply rooted in the classics (Beatles, CSN&Y, American Beauty Grateful Dead, Dylan), I love all the singer-songwriters (James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, etc.). I’m thinking a weeknight or a Sunday afternoon/evening. Want to get together and see if it’s a match?”
• Flip, New North End, Burlington Forum
“Skiing is more fun when you share it with others. I’m a relatively new transplant to Shelburne and a life long skier. I’m retired (both from work and black diamond bump runs). Looking for folks to ski with midweek at Stowe or Sugarbush. Please let me know if you are interested in enjoying the slopes together sometime.”

How do I get in touch switch Flip of the New North End for music jams?
I am a scrabble afficiando. I live in Townshend and hope you do as well.

Hi, Tom. We’ll help to connect you.
Hi, Linda – Unfortunately, Jim lives in Randolph … but we encourage you to put out an invitation to play Scrabble in your Townshend Forum to see if there’s interest locally!
