It’s 1980 and you’ve just beaten the seemingly unstoppable Soviet Red Army team to fulfill what will go down as
the “Miracle On Ice”. You’re standing on the podium receiving a gold medal and you’re swelling with pride as the
U.S. National anthem is played. The crowd cheers wildly and you know this is a moment you’ll remember
forever - finally fulfilling your lifelong athletic dream.
Well…the truth is most of us will not actually live that athletic moment but
Maverick members can get as close to the real thing as possible with the Maverick Winter Games Experience!
This is a totally unique opportunity to go for gold as you actually take part in the authentic winter sports experience at the site of the two-time Olympic Village, Lake Placid.
Imagine speeding down the 1980 bobsled run and experience the ultimate in thrills; racing slalom gates at Whiteface
Mountain - the Olympic Mountain, where Phil Mahre won silver, skating laps where Eric Heiden took five gold medals or
even shooting pucks and skating on
the Olympic Center's 1980 Rink - Herb Brooks Arena - the site of the historic
“Miracle on Ice”; and much more
As each day’s Winter Games wind down, you’re all smiles as you tell the stories of your flawless
performance under pressure or perhaps the ‘agony of defeat’. Then you transition into a totally unique business
breakthrough discussion right at the legendary rink or overlooking a 120M ski jump with
our special celebrity icon. Definitely no classroom here.
Next, it’s off to relax and unwind over cocktails and a gourmet dinner. Maybe you've been thinking about a new idea
for a long time and after bouncing it off the group of successful entrepreneurs assembled -- you get the breakthrough
you've been looking for!
When you wake up it’s time to hit the Village and surrounding event venues again for even more competition and surprises.
Yes, it’s a lot of fun -- but there’s also real business being done from the inevitable close connections
to the planned business sessions. Plus, the unique shared experiences create bonds and lifetime friendships. This is what
Maverick Business Adventures® exclusive Winter Games Experience is all about...and much more

There is no better location for this action-packed Winter Games style fantasy experience than Lake Placid, NY,
“The Winter Sports Capital of the World.” Host to the 1932 and 1980 Olympic Winter Games and this world-renowned village
is also the home to one of three
U.S. Olympic Training Centers, bringing world-class training and competition to the area.
With the majestic Adirondack Mountains and the Olympic Village of Lake Placid as the backdrop, you’ll compete for gold,
silver and bronze medals. You’ll be divided into 3 teams and you will each have the unique opportunity to
learn from and have your skills developed with the help of world-class coaches plus past, present and future Olympians,
