PRESIDENT'S CORNER Well, May’s weather may not have started off on the greatest note, but SSC’s 2024 ski trip sales at the May 2 Reveal certainly did. More than 60 people showed up at Boomerang to hear about our 2024 Ski Trips, meet the trip leaders, ask questions about our trips being offered and drop off checks and applications. Many stayed around to socialize and it resulted in a wonderful festive event. Two of our trips sold out and despite being able to slightly enlarge the trips, both resulted in lotteries. All people who handed in trip applications and checks at the Reveal, along with any mailed in applications and checks postmarked between May 2 and May 9 had equal chances in the lotteries. We still have spots available on our newly-expanded 7-day Copper Mt trip and our Alta Badia, Italy trip, along with our newly-opened New Hampshire and Seven Springs bus trips. Please remember to commit early for these trips. We are trying something new this year with our bus trips. If you sign up by September 30, 2023, you will get the lowest price for the trip. Each month after September 30, 2023 the price of the bus trip will increase by an additional $20 each month. Also, both bus trips you can use either the North East Mid-Week EPIC Pass or buy the least expensive EPIC Day passes (22 resorts). Buy your EPIC pass now for the best value. Finally, I would like to thank our great trip leaders, our web master, the board, and our tour operators for their quick turnaround for the contracts, trip pricing, trip terms and web page information. Without their assistance with this, we would not have been able to get the information our to our members to allow them to purchase passes still at the early discount rate. I hope all of you have a wonderful summer, and hope to see you at a deck party or a bike/hike event. Take care and be safe! Becky |
