Trail Conditions Tuesday, January 29th,
2008 (Projected)

What a chance to go for an old fashioned ski!
You have an excellent base with about 5 cm of new snow on top and there will be
no grooming tomorrow because we do not have a machine and even if we did the
temp is going up to 3C so it might be snowball weather and therefore difficult
to groom even if we were fully equipped. Groomer committee members are
madly off in all directions tomorrow. Weather permitting Dan and I
will go in and pick up the groomer attachment. Thanks Dan for the
truck. This is two trips for Dan to CB. Howard, Kenny will be
awaiting word fro Doug on the faith if the Scandic which will hopefully be ready
for Weds. And Earl has volunteered to take home the single
tracksetetr to get that back working again. In the meantime we are
awaiting the return of Des Hann from his cabin to se if he'll tackle the VK
which has about $600. + work to be done. So head out for a ski
tomorrow ... if skating lift your feet high .. if classing break a track and
then just keep skiing in it. Maybe some thoughtful member will snap
into a wide set of waxless skis and do a trek out around OT and back and then
everyone can classic in those tracks. As soon as the mild is over we
should be back in business with grooming. Just cleasned the step outside
and we have some east coast boiler plate going on with the snow , but it is not
slated to freeze so it should be all right.

Kitchen Party and Snowshoe Slated for
Friday Night

Last year we had a great snowshoe and Kitchen Party
and this year we hope to have the same .. I cannot promise anything other than a
snowshoe commencing at 2.5 km snowshoe commencing at 8:00 p.m. and then a
gathering at the chalet that hopefully, but no guarantees, will feature music
and of course lots of laughter and chatter. Bring friends, instruments and
snacks ... beverage ... whatever ... hopefully I can solicit some
complimentary beverage for the musicians if there are any ... but I can't
even promise that. Hope to se you there .... bring new people ... not
necessary to be a member ...
