Connecticut Office of Manufacturing’s Post

Ever wonder how you can still shred the slopes during a mild winter? Thank Connecticut's manufacturers! ❄️ In 1949, Milford's Tey Manufacturing faced every ski company's nightmare: a snowless winter killing their sales. But instead of calling it quits, they did what CT does best—innovate! On March 14, 1950, armed with just a spray paint compressor, a nozzle, and a garden hose, they created magic: the first commercial snowmaking machine! 🎿✨ #GotItMadeCT #MakeItHere #Manufacturing #Innovation

At Mohawk Mountain in West Cornwall, CT. Great place to go with a charming downtown and red covered bridge.
