Special Independence Day Celebration at Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa

June 14th, 2006 • Related • Filed Under

Mountain View Resort White Mountains New Hampshire ImageThe White Mountains in New Hampshire were once home to many majestic and grand hotels. Now, all but a few survive. One of these is the historic Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa in Whitefield.

Recently renovated and restored to its former grandeur of the 19th century, the resort occupies a spectacular location in the northern White Mountains region of New Hampshire.

For those seeking a 4-Diamond Grand Hotel with fine dining prepared by award-winning chefs amidst contemporary surroundings and amenities, the resort is fast establishing itself as a destination for affordable pampering.

But now there’s another reason to visit the Mountain View Resort…

On Saturday July 1, 2006 the Resort will host a special Independence Day Celebration of fun for the whole family, and culminating with a live outdoor evening concert by country star Lee Greenwood and a dazzling 25-minute firework display.

Gates open at 1:00pm and during the afternoon and early evening activities include arts and crafts displays, a huge children’s fun area with games of all kinds, and plenty of kid-friendly and BBQ-style food on hand, and much more.

For aerial fans, military Blackhawk & Huey helicopters will fly-over in formation at 6:05pm.

Tickets for the event are $21 per person, with children 12 and under free. VIP tickets are on sale at $60 and include a special Meet and Greet with Lee Greenwood. The resort is also offering room packages that include tickets to the show, and offer a splendid chance to take in the day and spend some extra time enjoying the Spa or visiting the area attractions.

If you’re looking for a special and memorable July 4th weekend celebration for 2006, then the Mountain View Grand Hotel & Spa may be just the destination for you, with its stunning scenery, luxury accommodation, facilities, and now the event of the year in the White Mountains.

For more information on the event or room packages call 800-438-3017 or 603-837-2100 or visit their web site at: http://www.mountainviewgrand.com/

    Hi Chad,

    I have a contact in Vermont who has his “ear to the ground” up there for me.

    I’ll see what I can find out and post here. Check back regularly because many times the press releases are sent out late.
