January 2012 Message
  

Hard to believe New Years Day is past and the season is finally here. If you didn’t get to the Christmas party, you missed a great time. Marguerite Schwab arranged a lovely dinner for us at Robinson’s Tavern in Locust Grove. I do believe a good time was had by all.

 

Marguerite has also set up a night out at Riverside Dinner Theater on February 24th. Gather for dinner and the musical, "Fiddler on the Roof." Don’t forget to send your check to Marguerite by February 1st.

 

When you read this, you may be packing for your trip to Mammoth. Veteran trip leader Bob Schwab will insure a week of abundant snow (Right, Bob?) and a great vacation for all 13 skiers. That goes without saying since Mammoth has some of the best skiing in the Sierras.

 

And, if you are a very early starter on your packing, your bag may just be ready for one of my all time favorite locations: Aspen/Snowmass. Rae Ehlen has an unexpected opening for either a single female or single male; either gender can be accommodated. If you or a friend can make the trip at this late date, be sure to give Rae a call. It is true that there are many benefits to taking an FSC trip, but the greatest is that, no matter your skill level or interest, no one skis alone except by choice. And no one parties alone—each evening, a big group always gathers for dinner.

 

Make a note that the January club membership meeting will be held on schedule (3rd Wednesday of the month), but the February meeting has been moved forward one week, to the 4th Wednesday to accommodate all the Aspen skiers.

 

That’s all for now. Think snow really, really hard. Everyone will thank you for it!
