The Valley Reporter in Waitsfield is reporting that Vice President JD Vance is visiting Vermont this coming weekend to ski at Sugarbush in Warren with his family.
The Valley Reporter wrote in a Facebook post this morning “The Valley Reporter has learned that vice president JD Vance will be in the valley this weekend. Apparently he and his family are coming to stay in Warren and ski at Sugarbush. Details to follow.”
VDC reached out to the Valley Reporter and confirmed by phone that JD Vance will be in Vermont and staying in Warren this weekend.
VDC also contacted the VTGOP Chairman Paul Dame and he told us that he had not heard of this yet, but he would check with sources at the White House.
Last night in a post on the reddit forum r/vermont, user ‘johnnyredshorts’ wrote, “I happen to know that VP Vance will be visiting Warren VT next weekend, staying at the Pitcher Inn right in the village. Skiing at Sugarbush. Don’t you think it would be fun to wave at him and say Hi?”
VDC will confirm with sources with more details to follow.
It’s the first ski vacation for the Vance family this winter. TMZ reported (and photographed) a visit to Aspen at Christmas.
It’s also not the first Vermont VEEP vacation in recent memory. Vice-President Mike Pence – the first VP for Donald Trump – liked to holiday at Lake Bomoseen during the summertime.
