Changes
Made At Ski Hill
October 29, 2003 - WLUC-TV, MI - Management changes are in effect for the

will continue to offer downhill skiing and cross country trails this

relies on natural snowfall.

Deal To Privatize Porcupine Ski Area

Policy issued an article essentially calling for the privatization of
the ski area.
