Pontiac Announces W'ldeTrac00
Grand Prix Promotion at Local
Ski Resorts
PONTIAC, MI - Pontiac has launched its WideTrack Grand
Prix Winterfest Promotion in an ongoing ski resort sponsor-
ship taking place at Nevada's Mount Rose lodge on March
2.
Main sponsors include the Grand Prix, Dannon and Boost.
WideTrack Grand Prix displays are at the base of each moun-
tain near the highest traffic ski lift and include catalogs, busi-
ness reply cards, videos and a car display. Prospective cus-
tomers also may receive more information from on-site prod-
uct specialists. To build excitement around the display, ski-
ers can race miniature Grand Prixs against the clock and win
prizes.
Grand Prix assistant brand manager Jim Vurpillat said,
"This sponsorship furthers our goal of raising awareness and
increasing desire for the all-new Grand thix. It extends the
WideTrack message outside the home and hits our active
target where they play, while the locations of the vents match
areas of opportunity for Grand Prix."
Pontiac drives home the message that wider really is bet-
mr. Grand Prix designers pushed tbe wbeels deeper into the
comers to give the car a distinctive Pontiac Wkle Track look
while improving road stability and control and increasing
interior space. Pontiac uses sporting ¢quitane.nt examples to
illustrate that "Wider is Better" in its print campaigns - wider
tennis rackets, bigger golf club sweet spots - not to mention
new wider parabolic skis.
Pontiac owners have very active life-styks. Grand Prix
target buyers are well represented in the skiing population.
Grand Prix brand partner and vice president of DMB&B,
Pontiac's advertising agency, Brian Dtwoehea- said, "this is
an extension of our 'Wider is Better' strategy for the brand.
The new boom in skiing is led by the development of the
wider ski and its benefit of improved control and turning
ability, which matches the benefits of the WideTrack Grand
Prix exactly."
Pontiac will be visiting 23 ski resorts on weekends and in
addition will have on-site signage and other materials through-
out more than 100 U.S. ski resorts. The promotion ends in
California on March 9.

UT; February 22 - Snow Valley, CA; February 23 - Bear Mt.,
CA
March 1 - Northstar. CA; March 2 - Mt. Rose, NV; March

Variety of trips planned by
Sierra Nevada Trail Packers
Not many would argue with the fact that the
beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains offer a spec-
tacular environment for summer vacations. Their
majesty, however, can be intimidating for people
more familiar with concrete and car horns than
canyons and cottonwoods. The solution is to take
an expertly guided trip on horseback to find
nature's finest displays with Frontier Pack Train,
based out of June Lake, CA.
The month of May features pack trips focus-
ing on the untamed, wild mustang. Each day par-
ticipants will study the free roaming horses by
riding out to the Pizona Area on the Inyo Na-"
tionai Forest. Wild mustangs are a source of con,
troversy in many western states. While on this
trip, discussions about the political evolution of
the horse and its interaction with otber animals
and plant life in tbe range environment will be
held. One guest speaker during this month is Dr.
Robert M. Miller, a nationally known lecturer
and author on equine behavior. The practicing
veterinarian is best known for his workon cre-
ating trust between humans and horses. The four-
day pack experience with Dr. Miller is May 17-
20. Cost is $450, which includes food and camp-
ing equipment.
Additional wild mustang trips, dates and prices
are May 10-12 (Mother's Day Special), offered
for $250; May 24-27, $450; May 31-June 3,
$350; June 7-10, $450.
Other Frontier Pack Train summer trips offer
golden trout fly fishing, horse.drives, natural his-
tory trips, backpacker specials and deer hunting
base camp trips. The pack station's owners, Dave
& Kent Dohnel have over 30 combined years of
experience packing in the Sierra and personally
attend to the safety and hospitality of each trip.
Riders of all abilities, beginner to expert, will
be matched with appropriate, well-mannered
horses. Reservations for all trips must be final-
A "l • IPt ized 30 days in advance. Interested vacation
UifllOOr ISrlelS planners can call Dave Dohnel at (619)873-7971.'
