The latest (and only) "update" on majellagroup.com, dated June 2017, includes this:

"Why did this take so long? A complex transaction of this nature involves significant discussion, planning, business analysis and legal work. The Berry family and the Majella Group have been in direct negotiations for nearly a year and did not want to make a premature announcement before all aspects of the deal were secure. While some work remains, the expected real estate closing will occur later this summer. Until that time, a formal operating agreement is in place to allow the Majella management team to assume responsibility for immediate operations, including hiring back select managers and employees and replacing lifts."

So the 2017-2018 season is obviously a writeoff - one that continues a big void in winter tourism for the Rangeley region.

Let's hope they can get up and running by Christmas school vacation 2018.

And for now, how about an updated "update"?
