One Saturday in January 2004
On the day of January 10th at Maplelag, we hosted a wedding, had the regular weekend skiing guests, hosted a Christmas party for the Callaway school staff and also provided facilty space for the White Earth Land Recovery project Indigenous farmers workshop. With 46,000 sq. ft of space in the lodge, we were able to accomodate all the functions nicely. There was also some great skiing on the trails this day.
