HANCOCK, Mass. — Williamstown Elementary School third-grade students in Cassandra Crosier's class participated in our Junior Marketers Create an Ad series. 
 
We contacted Berkshire County teachers and asked their students to help create an ad for our sponsors and the community delivered. For the next nine months, we will showcase ads made by our creative next generation. 
 
This month, students showcased Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort's winter season, which includes 45 trails for skiing and snowboarding, terrain jumps, scenic chair lift rides to the summit, snow tubing, the Kids Rule program, which teaches children ages 3 to 14 how to ski and snowboard, and much more. 
 
The resort, located at 37 Corey Road in Hancock, works to be the most respected family resort in North America, said Katie Fogel, Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort director of marketing. 
 
Fogel met with the students to answer their questions about the resort's history, activities, facilities, and the mountain's typography. 
 
One student asked how the resort got its name, and Fogel explained that the story is from when the area was flown over in the 1940s. It is believed the pilots said, "by Jiminy, that's a peak," she said. 
 
Students were also intrigued by how the resort's buildings were named, some of which are named after people who played an integral role in making it what it is today.
