2011-2012 Distant Ski Trip Offerings
Our slate of trips for the 2012 ski season is complete. The Distant Trips Committee looked at proposals on destinations in Utah, California, Idaho, Colorado and Europe. Due to various constraints, mostly from the airlines, the resorts that made the final list were all in Colorado. All things considered, this line up is robust and will take our groups to some of the best skiing in the world.
The early sign up period begins on August 15th. Trip Leaders are permitted to accept reservation forms and deposit checks on that date and not before. The fall meeting for trips and membership sign up is scheduled for Thursday, September 15th at the Concord Yacht Club.
