It’s a little dull today, and has been raining for a couple of days which melted most of the snow at last. Its been a great winter for us and business has been excellent. Snowmobilers are one group that we market towards as we’re right by the trail for ITS 85 which takes you up towards Greenville, Jackman, Millinocket and the North Country. We have become business sponsors of a big charity in Maine that helps the handicapped called Pine Tree Camp This is a charity that a lot of snowmobile clubs in the State support and just 4 months into the year more than $121,000 has been raised that will benefit this very worthwhile cause from various fund raising events.

On the Brewster Inn website we now have a new Snowmobile Brochure aimed directly at the snowmobile market and this has been a big success.

The second part of today’s newsletter is all about social media. This is a fast developing medium that is available to us in so many ways to help publicise the inn and to make us more successful in what we do here, bringing more people into this beautiful part of Maine.

Facebook is one way that we promote ourselves and what we do here at the Brewster Inn.

On Facebook we have our official page that you will find if you search for "Brewster Inn Dexter Maine" which has info, loads of photos and brochures (as well as they can display them) and we'd love it if you're on Facebook and clicked "become a fan". If you have stayed before, we’d love you to become a fan too and keep up to date with us and our regular updates with what’s happening in Dexter Maine until we see you again the next time in the future.

Also I have my own page on Facebook and if you search for "Brewster Inn Dexter" that’s where you find me, "become a friend" and see what I’m up to in my everyday life running our unique, special and very historic Inn.

The idea is that if you haven’t stayed before, you'll learn so much more about us before you get here, and for you and our returning guests it will be like friends meeting up again. It works very well as we have a lot of guests on both pages

We hope very much that you would like to join us.

Lastly as promised, here is the link for our appearance on national TV in June 2008 on HGTV. Fast forward about 2.37 and you’ll find us. We had to call the video something different to HGTV to disguise it hence “English fish n chips”. Brewster Inn on HGTV

Cheerio for now
