First Annual "Unofficial" Recreate Snow Day

Hey Everyone!  We're trying to organize a group trip to Timberline Lodge on Sunday, February 15th.  Skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing...there's something for everyone.  We're looking at possibly renting a "mini bus" to take us up there if there is enough interest.  If not, we'll probably just meet at the gym and carpool out there.

  • Lift tix are $57 for skiers and riders
  • Gear Rental is $35 
  • Bus (if we did it) is approx. $35
  • They don't rent show shoes so you would want to rent them ahead of time if you don't have your own.
Email Devon if you're interested in going at devonneves@gmail.com (also let her know if you'd be interested in the bus option or if you'd be willing to drive and how many people you can accommodate.)  We'll try to finalize a head count by 2/1 so we can plan the final details accordingly. 

Hope you can all join us!
