Monday Update for 3/29

Hi STARS:

 

Just a Monday Update for our 8th SENIOR PROGRAM STARS clinic this coming Wednesday, March 29th at the West Resort. 

 

Snow conditions are perfect with 60-84  inches of snow and lots of corduroy to ski and ride on. There is a 70% chance of 1-3 inches of snow on Wednesday morning, so make sure you plan to leave early so you can make it to the mountain on time. You should always have your chains in your car, but I do not think you will need them.

 

Please plan to get at West Resort by 8:15 to check in and we will meet at the Bullwheel Grill.

 

Change for Lift ticket and Rentals::
The Reservation Center and Rentals will be closed by the Bullwheel Grill all next week so after purchasing online go to the Kiosk by main ticket office and scan your barcode so you will receive your lift ticket. If you need rentals you will have to go to the main ticket window to receive your rental voucher.

 

We need all the Seniors that have been a part of our season to come this Wednesday, March 22rd.. There will be a $10.00  cash charge for the Mexican lunch.  Let's all come together and celebration our 14th year of the Senior Program STARS. I do have some gifts that will be given out during our luncheon as well.. 

 

Richard Blei, STARS Instructor is taking off from teaching skiing next season. Please thank him when you see him this coming Wednesday. He has had a good following of STARS this season. Best of luck to Richard in the future.

 

Make sure you buy your lesson, lift ticket by Monday morning, as we sell out by mid-morning. 

 

Thanks.... you are all appreciated!!

 

Ski u Wednesday,

Monday Update

 Good Morning STARS:

 

This is your Monday update for the STARS Program for Wednesday, March 22nd at the West Resort. 

 

We are expecting up to 2 feet of snow Tuesday into Wednesday, so we do have some good news and some bad news. Good news we are receiving lots of snow in the next few days, and bad news we will have to cancel STARS. With the snow level at 5,000 feet, road conditions will be very difficult to get to Mountain High. Remember we want all of you to be safe, that is why we feel that cancelling this Wednesday is the best decision for all of you.

 

So, with that, Wednesday, 3/29  will be our last clinic and  with the luncheon. All Seniors who have purchased lesson, lift ticket and/or rentals  for 3/22 can move to 3/29. I just need you to email me. 

 

The question was asked, can we move into April and the feedback I received is that is not possible due to spring break that week. So hopefully everyone can come to the last clinic on 3/29 and our End of the Season luncheon.

 

Ski u Wednesday, March 29th

Remember the ski and snowboard groups that you are in are very flexible. If you feel you need to move a little faster we can move you up to that group.
