Always looking for opportunities to catch up with industry partners, PC joined in for the fun.<\/p>\n

Using a variety of charcuterie delectables, a look-alike Saddleback Ski Area Mid-Mountain Lodge was created and modeled after the real-life project currently under construction by the PC team near Rangeley, Maine.

Midway through the event, and after a detailed and thoughtful overview of each edible submission, the Mid-Mountain Lodge was deemed the winner!<\/p>\n

Aside from the great looking (and tasting) charcuterie art, the event was a great reminder of how we can all help make a difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
