A wonderful granite state spot that I am desperately looking for!

In September of 1970 during my junior year of high school, I switched from the Perkins School for the blind in Watertown Massachusetts, to the Oak Hill School for the blind in Hartford Connecticut and I began listening to one of Hartford's big top forty stations, WDRC 1360 AM and 102.9 on the FM dial. That winter of 1970 into 1971, WDRC started playing this wonderful commercial about going to New Hampshire to ski. I remember that this commercial had the following lyrics, "Going to New Hampshire, gonna ride the mountain I'm going to the place where the ski people go." The spot was written by Jake Holmes and I absolutely love it. Now, this commercial was obviously played on radio stations outside of New Hampshire to get people that love skiing to visit the granite state because of their excellent ski facilities. I bet this commercial didn't only air in Hartford, but probably in Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Providence and New York City as well. I would REALLY LOVE to get a hold of it somehow. I thought I should just let that be known here in the extremely unlikely event that perhaps one of you fellas might have this spot amongst your old tapes. If so, I would really like a nice mp3 file or even a flac file of this beautiful spot for skiing in the granite state. Thanks for any help in advance.

Yes amguy, that's how I discovered who had actually created the spot, and what made me think of it again after the last time I'd remembered that I really wanted this spot about ten years ago. Thanks for the info anyway.
