The Maine Public Broadcasting Network (MPBN) announces the launch of its annual Ski Bum Promotion to be held in January 2015 looking for the “Ultimate Ski Bum Family.” The Grand Prize drawing will be drawn on Jan. 28, and will include a ski and stay at Sugarloaf Mountain Resort for a family of four during school vacation week in February, and gear for the entire family from Gorham Bike and Ski.

Each week in January, MPBN will release a new “MPBN LIBS” Challenge on its website, www.mpbn.net. Entrants will be required to fill out the MPBN LIBS online form and submit their best thinking and creative words. The most humorous two submissions each week will be declared winners and will be entered into the final drawing for the MPBN Ski Family Grand Prize.

“Thanks to our partners at Sugarloaf and Gorham Bike and Ski for making this fantastic vacation for some lucky family of four possible,” MPBN President and CEO Mark Vogelzang said. “What a great way to celebrate winter in Maine. We hope all of our listeners and viewers will join in the fun.”

Details on the entire Ski Bum 2015 promotion are available at www.mpbn.net effective Jan. 1.
