Live Music in Stark’s Pub- Summer 2026
July 29 @ 5:00 pm
Stark’s Pub offers a one-of-a-kind family dining experience you won’t find anywhere else in the Mad River Valley. Open daily during the ski season from 11:00 AM to 5:30 PM whenever the mountain is running, and throughout the summer—from Memorial Day through peak foliage in October—Stark’s Pub serves dinner Wednesday through Saturday from 4:30 to 8:30 PM.
In the warmer months, enjoy stunning mountain views while dining al fresco on the deck or from the comfort of the cozy indoor seating. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, with yard games to entertain kids and miles of scenic hiking trails just steps from your table.
Whether you’re winding down after a day on the slopes or hiking in the Green Mountains, Stark’s Pub is the perfect spot to refuel and reconnect. Don’t miss our live music performances—après-ski in the winter and on Wednesday summer evenings. For a full schedule of musical guests, visit our event calendar.
A special thanks to our friends at Lawson’s Finest Liquids for helping us support local artists and keep the good vibes going all year long at Stark’s Pub.

Life is full of questions, and money is no different. Sometimes you just want to ask something. Bring or pour a cup of your favorite warm beverage, and join me at the Mad River Valley Welcome Center. Come as you are. All are welcome. And every question counts—simple, complex, or somewhere in between. It's a relaxed, open conversation about money, planning, and whatever's on your mind. Kassie Reid from Greenhill Financial Planners will be on hand to chat.
-
March: A Fresh Start
Pour a cup and bring your thoughts and curiosities. The start of the year is a natural time to evaluate your goals and priorities, capture momentum, and plan for the year ahead. This space is designed to welcome everyone, whether your questions feel simple, complicated, or somewhere in between. It’s a relaxed, open conversation about money, planning, and whatever’s on your mind. -
May: Summer Pause
Longer days and shifting routines can make this time of year feel both energizing and full, so before summer sweeps you away, take a moment to pause. Bring whatever’s on your mind—upcoming plans, changing expenses, or simply a question you’ve been meaning to ask. This is a relaxed, welcoming space to reflect, recalibrate, and talk through money decisions in a way that feels grounded and practical. Come as you are and join the conversation. -
August: Fall Transitions
As the seasons shift, so do routines and priorities. Settle in with something warm and join an open conversation about what this transition might bring—new schedules, business cycles, evolving goals, or unexpected change. We could explore how these shifts connect to your financial life, from cash flow to longer-term direction, or wherever the discussion naturally leads. Bring your questions and curiosity. -
November: Year’s End
As the year winds down, it’s a natural time to reflect on what’s unfolded and consider what comes next. Gather your thoughts and join the conversation around year-end considerations—from giving and tax planning to tying up loose ends or preparing for January. This is a supportive place to organize your reflections, acknowledge progress, and make intentional decisions before the calendar turns. Wherever you’re at, you’re welcome at the table.

MRV Women in Business – Social Media Workshop
MRV Chamber Welcome Center
September 10 @ 5:00 pm
These bi-monthly workshops are a place to have an open conversation about social media, what is working for everyone, what isn't, what do you need help with? The MRV Chamber's MRV Women in Business group decided to host these bi-monthly Social Media Workshops in the months in between the more structured MRV Women in Business Meetings. It is meant to be an open, collaborative brainstorming session designed to help you feel a little more prepared the next time you create a post or reel.
Let’s be honest, social media can feel overwhelming. What do you post? Should you use trending sounds? Do captions really matter? What makes a strong hook? Why should people follow your page? Is your SEO set up?
This workshop is a space to come together and talk all things social. We’ll brainstorm content ideas, discuss what’s actually working right now, explore collaborations, and share experiences. The goal? You leave feeling inspired and ready to create a few new posts for your page. We will share hook ideas, trending sound ideas, adding words to the screen, adding captions, and anything else you would like to cover. The event is hosted by Samantha Ciccone, the coordinator of the MRV Women in Business Group.
Please feel free to BYOB if you’d like to sip while we brainstorm, and you’re welcome to grab snacks from Peace Burger across the street or from your favorite local spot.

Mow Crew
September 14 @ 7:00 am
Mow some grass, earn your pass! Mow crew is the best way to get an intimate look at all of the nooks and crannies of Stark Mountain, burn some calories and make new ski buddies. At the end of the 10 days of work you’ll have earned some cash for your pocket and a full season’s pass for the upcoming winter.
A little run down on how we mow our trails… We use hand scythes to cut the grass, ferns and shrubs on the steepest slopes here at Mad River Glen. Most of the beginner and intermediate terrain is mowed with a tractor, mow crew steps in to finish off the areas the tractor can’t go. We mow and move in a line shoulder-to-shoulder hiking up the trails as we go. It can be tough work but the camaraderie makes it so much fun! Truly, it is rewarding and at the end of the 10 days, you’ll have a full season ski pass and some cash in your pocket. Not only that but you will likely have learned something about the terrain you didn’t already know and you’ll have gained a couple of new ski buddies.
The day begins at 7:00 am and we mow until about 3:00 pm with many short breaks in between. A backpack with a hydration pack is highly recommended and you should also pack yourself enough food to get you through the day. There will be water stations along the route to refill your containers and likely a ride down on the chairlift at the end of the day to ease the knees. Most people wear pants and long sleeves to fend off bugs and protect them from the sun but a few hardy folks go shorts and tees, everyone wears hiking boots – no exceptions. We will provide the scythe, a pair of work gloves, a sharpening stone/tools and water.

Siptemberfest 2026
September 19 @ 12:00 pm
STARK’S PUB WILL BE CLOSED ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19TH FOR SIPTEMBERFEST.
Back in 2008, three folks who really like beer, really like festivals and really like Mad River Glen, decided we wanted to bring the fun of a beer fest back to the Valley and that the only way it was going to happen was if we pulled up our bootstraps and did it ourselves!
Although Siptemberfest has grown over the years it is still the greatest little beer festival in the state of Vermont. There are still only around 24 brewers and roughly 800 tickets for sale, making it the Best Little Beer Fest in Vermont. For more information check out the official SIPtemberfest website.

1st Ever MRV – Discover Waterbury Combined Chamber Mixer
Moose Meadow Lodge
October 21 @ 5:30 pm
They said it would never happen, but the times are a changin'! In this era of divisiveness all around us, we are working hard to build as many bridges as we can. We take great pleasure in working ever more closely with our good neighbors at out counterpart organization, Discover Waterbury. We are doing all we can to promote our interconnected region and encourage visitation and collaboration.
To enhance that collaboration we thought it would be a great idea to have a joint social gathering to celebrate our combined work and encourage further collaboration. And what better venue than the magnificent inn and grounds at the famous Moose Meadow Lodge & Treehouse located in the "neutral" ground" of Duxbury Vermont, AKA "De-Lux-Bury"!
If you haven't been to the lodge and treehouse or been to one of their summer concerts you are in for an absolute treat, especially in the autumn. There will be more specifics coming up about this meeting as we get closer so stay tuned.
One of the MRV-DW collaborations that has been significant has been our work to bring international tourists to our Route 100 corridor. Learn more about this work...

Coffee With an Advisor
MRV Chamber Welcome Center
November 4 @ 9:00 am
Life is full of questions, and money is no different. Sometimes you just want to ask something. Bring or pour a cup of your favorite warm beverage, and join me at the Mad River Valley Welcome Center. Come as you are. All are welcome. And every question counts—simple, complex, or somewhere in between. It's a relaxed, open conversation about money, planning, and whatever's on your mind. Kassie Reid from Greenhill Financial Planners will be on hand to chat.

March: A Fresh Start
Pour a cup and bring your thoughts and curiosities. The start of the year is a natural time to evaluate your goals and priorities, capture momentum, and plan for the year ahead. This space is designed to welcome everyone, whether your questions feel simple, complicated, or somewhere in between. It’s a relaxed, open conversation about money, planning, and whatever’s on your mind. -
May: Summer Pause
Longer days and shifting routines can make this time of year feel both energizing and full, so before summer sweeps you away, take a moment to pause. Bring whatever’s on your mind—upcoming plans, changing expenses, or simply a question you’ve been meaning to ask. This is a relaxed, welcoming space to reflect, recalibrate, and talk through money decisions in a way that feels grounded and practical. Come as you are and join the conversation. -
August: Fall Transitions
As the seasons shift, so do routines and priorities. Settle in with something warm and join an open conversation about what this transition might bring—new schedules, business cycles, evolving goals, or unexpected change. We could explore how these shifts connect to your financial life, from cash flow to longer-term direction, or wherever the discussion naturally leads. Bring your questions and curiosity. -
November: Year’s End
As the year winds down, it’s a natural time to reflect on what’s unfolded and consider what comes next. Gather your thoughts and join the conversation around year-end considerations—from giving and tax planning to tying up loose ends or preparing for January. This is a supportive place to organize your reflections, acknowledge progress, and make intentional decisions before the calendar turns. Wherever you’re at, you’re welcome at the table.

MRV Women in Business – Social Media Workshop
MRV Chamber Welcome Center
November 12 @ 8:00 am
These bi-monthly workshops are a place to have an open conversation about social media, what is working for everyone, what isn't, what do you need help with? The MRV Chamber's MRV Women in Business group decided to host these bi-monthly Social Media Workshops in the months in between the more structured MRV Women in Business Meetings. It is meant to be an open, collaborative brainstorming session designed to help you feel a little more prepared the next time you create a post or reel.
Let’s be honest, social media can feel overwhelming. What do you post? Should you use trending sounds? Do captions really matter? What makes a strong hook? Why should people follow your page? Is your SEO set up?
This workshop is a space to come together and talk all things social. We’ll brainstorm content ideas, discuss what’s actually working right now, explore collaborations, and share experiences. The goal? You leave feeling inspired and ready to create a few new posts for your page. We will share hook ideas, trending sound ideas, adding words to the screen, adding captions, and anything else you would like to cover. The event is hosted by Samantha Ciccone, the coordinator of the MRV Women in Business Group.
Please feel free to BYOB if you’d like to sip while we brainstorm, and you’re welcome to grab snacks from Peace Burger across the street or from your favorite local spot.
