Escape the summer heat for a cool weekend in the beautiful mountains of Banner Elk, NC. Tentative plans are to meet for dinner on Friday, July 21 at the Sugar Mountain Ski Resort. Guest speakers will be Franklin Sanders and his son, Justin, who will discuss their decades long effort to protect the precious metal trading industry from government intervention.

Saturday, July 22 will begin with breakfast with the owners of Sugar Mountain while they discuss how they converted a small, bankrupt ski slope into one of the most successful resorts in the eastern United States. We'll also get a close look at their advanced snow-making technology and modern ski lifts, which are both keys to their prosperity.

Plan to spend the weekend at Sugar Mountain and its surroundings with many amenities and attractions for people of all ages.
