Leaders' Ski Trip Info

The letter attached to this e-mail is the same document in the e-mail, but in an easier-to-print for. Thanks.

 

January 24, 2008

 

     I just wanted to send out this letter as an overview of this weekend’s event – our Ski Trip to Sugar Mountain Resort.

 

     We will be leaving from the YMCA at 6 a.m. on Saturday morning. I know this is early, but it is almost exactly a three hour drive to the slopes. In order to get our lift tickets, rentals, and lessons, we need to get up early so we can get the most out of our day of skiing. (And I’m being patient because my friends and I used to leave at 3 a.m. in order to start skiing by 7 a.m. in West Virginia when I was in High School).

 

     All of your ski rentals, lessons, lift tickets, and hotel are already paid for, so leave the big bucks out home. All you need money for is gifts, lunch on Saturday, and if you want snacks when we stop for gas. The hotel will provide breakfast on Sunday morning, and we will be back before lunch. Dinner will also be paid for.

 

     A special note for people renting Snowboards!!! A $400 deposit needs to be put down in either cash or on a credit card to rent a board. All money will be returned to you after you turn back in the rental equipment. Ski rentals do not require a deposit.

 

     After our lift tickets expire, we will head to the Comfort Suites in Boone, NC to get changed and cleaned up before dinner. We will leave at 9 a.m. on Sunday in order to be back at 12:30 pm.

 

     Please bring the following items:

-         Ski attire (Gloves, Hat, Pants, Jacket)

-         Money for extra items and lunch

-         A change of clothes when we get back to the hotel, and one for Sunday morning. Temperatures in Boone will be in the 30’s so bring warm clothes.

-         Toiletries

 

     Here are some important addresses and phone numbers for your parents to have this weekend.

 

Comfort Suites

1184 SR 105

Boone, NC, US, 28607

828-268-0099

 

Sugar Mountain Resort

1009 Sugar Mountain Drive
Banner Elk, NC 28604

800-SUGARMT

www.skisugar.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     Along with the Leaders’ and myself, our Assistant Advisor and Afterschool Coordinator Shaina Fahey will also be attending the trip. We will be meeting up with three other Leaders’ Clubs from Atlanta on this trip, so there will be lots of adult supervision on the slopes and in the hotel.

 

So a quick overview of the important times:

 

Saturday

6 am: Leave Morrison Family YMCA. (Meet at the busses as the YMCA will not be open yet)

9:15 am: Arrive at Sugar Mountain

4:30 pm: Turn in rentals and head to hotel

6:30 pm: Dinner

 

Sunday:

7:30 am: Breakfast

9 am: Check-out and leave Boone

12:30 pm: Arrive back at YMCA

 

 

Please do not hesitate to call me on my cell phone at anytime if you have any questions. If I do not pick up right away, it may mean that I’m just going too fast down the mountain to hear the ringing. Thanks so much.

Leaders' Follow-up and Harlem Ambassadors

Hey everyone. Thanks to all of the new Senior Leaders who showed up last night. There were 17 new potential Leaders, which if everyone decides to join, brings us to almost 50 Leaders total. Including our new Jr. Leaders’ Club, we have more than 60 Leaders now at the Morrison YMCA.

 

I wanted to send this e-mail out to make sure I put in all the correct e-mail addresses, as well as go over some things about Thursday night. I have found out that the game is not the Harlem Globetrotters, but the Harlem Ambassadors. I’m not really sure who they are, but it still should be fun. We will meet at the YMCA, in the pavilion, at 6:30 pm.

 

The following people are signed up to attend. There are still two spot left if anyone is interested. And yes, this post is now on our web site at http://morrisonteens.blogspot.com.

 

Thanks.

This Thursday night, free tickets to the Harlem Globetrotters at Ardrey Kell

Hey all. I have 14 free tickets to go to the Harlem Globetrotters this Thursday at Ardrey Kell High School. Sorry this is late notice, but I just received them. Anyway, I will be taking a bus load of Leaders if you would like to attend. The game starts at 7 pm, so we would meet at the YMCA at 6:30 pm at the Pavilion. The game should be over by 9 pm or so.

 

If you want to go, please e-mail me back as soon as you know. The first 14 people to sign up, get to go. Thanks.

MSM canceled tonight!!!

Middle School Madness is canceled tonight due to the weather. It has started to rain and the low is 22 degrees. This mixture will most likely make for an icy road by 10:30 pm. For safety concerns, we have decided to cancel it. Thanks so much for all of your help and we will make sure to have a HUGE MSM in February.

Another volunteer opportunity for this Sunday Jan. 20th

Thanks so much for all the help several of you gave last night (Wednesday) with stuffing envelopes and program guides. Anne Marie, Dana, Eve, Brooke, and the entire Membership Department loved your help. Because they were so impressed, they will most likely be asking for our help on a regular basis – like this Sunday.

 

If anyone can help Anne Marie with some filing in the business office this Sunday (anytime in between noon – 6 pm) it would benefit the YMCA a great deal. You do not need to work the entire six hours, but whatever time frame you commit to, you must stay for. So, if this is something you can do this Sunday, please e-mail me back as soon as you read this e-mail with the timeframe you can make it. It can be for one hour, two hours, all six hours, etc., just make sure to include a timeframe so Anne Marie will know when to expect you. And once again, this info is also on the Web site at http://morrisonteens.blogspot.com. For those of you singed up for MSM, I will see you Saturday night. Enjoy the rest of your Snow Day. Thanks.
