Trademarking the name Mount Washington

[Steph]

Did anyone see the article in today's Conway Daily Sun regarding the Omni Resort wanting to trademark the name Mount Washington? Here is a quote from the article:
"The Mount Washington Hotel and Resort is trying to trademark the words "Mount Washington" Not "Mount Washington Hotel and Resort" but Mount Washington. They have already sent a cease and desist order to more than one business in our valley telling them that they must stop using Mount Washington in their name or face a legal challenge to its use". This letter came from Ed Butler who is Carroll County District 1 Representative.
