Hi walter. Reporter hey monica. As we take a live look at conditions at bear creek people enjoying themselves. Its easy to forget this past december was pretty mild. As a result several ski resorts in pennsylvania only had about half of their trails opened by christmas when they would have hoped to have had at least 75 percent opened but the cold is back as you mentioned and hopes have been renewed to finish the ski and snowboard season in strong fashion. Blue mountain was off to a great start opening its slopes a week before thanksgiving. It was the earliest opening day in Blue Mountain history. But then we had warm weather all the way through december and its only been within the last two weeks where weve basically have been 100 percent opened by this weekend. Reporter it has been tougher to keep the slopes snow covered at Bear Creek Mountain resort located in Macungie Lehigh county where its usually just a few degrees warmer than the poconos. A lot of times unfortunately those two or 3 degrees, four or five whatever it may be makes a huge difference in the ability for us to make snow or not. Reporter but the pennsylvania ski resorts have new hope in it seems old man winter made a new years resolution to actually do his job. With recent temperatures dipping under the 20degree mark conditions have been nearly ideal to turn on the snow guns. As a result, most regional resorts expect to have either all or nearly all of their trails opened by this weekend. And with the Martin Luther king and president s day holidays approaching, that is good news for the resorts and the skiers and snowboarders many of whom say this year is still better than last year deemed by many as too snowy and too cold. Last year i got out whenever the roads werent impossible. Which was rarely last year. That it was that it was my friend. Reporter either way 72yearold matt mcgran says a bad day skiing still beats a great day at work. Im still a kid having a good time and learning to enjoy it more and the more you do it, the better you get the better you get the more fun you have at it. All right. We have 24 to 36inch bases here at bear creek and in Blue Mountain and as long as temperatures remain below freezing during the overnight hours in particular, they still expect to count this ski season as a success.

He testified for nearly an hour but a youth trip he organized in the 2012 summer olympics in london. In simple terms it was a lavish trip that cost roughly 75,000. You have a large picture of charitable work that i did for these children and that that comprised a lot of years and a lot of money. Reporter tollefson says of 2012 he began to run out of money. He calls himself a bad businessman. But prosecutors say the roughly 200 victims were bilked out of 340,000 and bogus sports travel packages would call him a crook. Its a classic ponzi scheme. Hes taking from the people that paid him already and booking trips for people that are trod go and things bound to collapse and thats exactly what happened. Reporter tollefson claims his money trouble began after losing radio and tv jobs including with the philadelphia eagles. Those opportunities dried up many of his fundraising efforts.
