Saint Patrick's Day Cocktail Party - Saturday March 16, 2024

The 2024 Intershack St. Patrick’s party, held at the Jay Peak golf clubhouse, was filled with fun, silly shenanigans and even a pot of gold.

Our chief organizing cailín, Elaine Thoms had prepared three activities.
An enthusiastic green hat toss game was won by Mona Rizk.
The Irish Quiz game contestants, Leigh Jaschke, Jim Townsend, and Helen Wienand fought one another (verbally) valiantly with their supporting partners until Jim finally walked away with the bottle of Irish whiskey.
Best Irish costumes were won by George Syrovatka, Mark Rabinovitch, and Peter Amsden.
A big thanks to Nelson and Jay Peak for delicious appetizers and to Ken our able barman who celebrated his birthday with us.

Lá fhéile Pádraig sona dhuit!!!

Valentine's Day Dinner - Saturday February 10, 2024

Our Valentine’s dinner party was held at the Inn in Montgomery Center on Saturday February 10th and was quite successful. Everyone had a good time, enjoyed the food, the venue and most importantly the company.

We were a total of 30 people and amid the cocktails and dining, we played a couple of Valentine themed games and awarded some gifts. Ginny won the necklace taboo game and Vicki won the Emoji Pictionary game. Another event made fun by Intershackers!



Skating Party - Thursday December 28, 2023

The Intershack Skating party held on Dec. 28 was a big intergenerational success. Families came together and mixed with other families, old friends reconnected, and made new friends. Fifty-eight people attended with skaters aged three to seventy and a cheering section aged one to (whatever). A big thank you to the arena staff (Matt and Lynn) who provided necessary logistics for the event. Thanks to Laurie and Peter for organizing the event, and to all the volunteers who helped out – Leigh for children’s activities, Josh for music, the pizza fetchers and clean-up crew.



Intershack Gives Back!

To help make Christmas brighter for less fortunate families in our local communities, Intershack has made donations to two local food banks. The Montgomery Food Pantry and the Jay Area Food Shelf each received a cheque for $1,000.

Not only does your membership fee provide you with opportunities to participate in myriad social activities, and receive discounts for home-heating fuel through Intershack’s preferred rate program with Fred’s Energy, you can be proud of your contributions to those in need.

St. Patrick's Day - Saturday March 18, 2023

Valentine's Day Event - Saturday February 4, 2023
at the Black Lantern Inn

Intershackers are a hardy bunch!

The ski hill had been closed for its second day due to the extreme cold temperatures and wind chills but the cold didn’t stop us from coming to the Black Lantern Inn for an early Valentine party. We were about 40 participants –enjoying the delicious 4 course buffet, fun games, and warm company.

The Valentine Trivia game was both challenging and fun- both in answering the questions and then correcting the other team responses. The team led by Lissy & Claire were the winners. The off-limits game required a tie-breaker round – where everyone wanted to provide inputs! In the end, Helen won the top prize.

It was a fun evening and great to be back with friends in the historic Montgomery Inn.

Intershack Golf Tournament Fogged Out
Sunday September 4, 2022

In spite of Chuck's excellent organizing with the support of Jamie Stenger, Jay Peak Golf Director, bad weather won out.

Incessant heavy fog and rain caused the Intershack Golf Tournament's cancellation.

Undaunted, Intershackers went on to have an excellent cocktail and dinner at the Clubhouse. Although no official prizes were awarded, it was decided that longest drive went to Charlie Morrill, who drove in from Maine for the event and second went to Bill and Maureen Jackson, who drove in from New Jersey.

Shortest drive went to those who rumbled up the hill from Alpine Haven.

Hopefully, our next tournament will have better luck with the weather.
