You can find our current Newsflash, calendars,

Ski Trip
Start
planning today to be a part of our annual ski trip to Cataloochee Ski Area this
winter. The dates are Wednesday, January 6 through Friday, January 8,
2010. Please fill out the attached
interest form to help us plan.
For
families joining us this year, the ski trip is a time for our families to get
together. Each child will need to have
someone responsible for them while on the trip and the school will not be
providing chaperones for the trip. This person will have to sign the rental
agreement and liability forms. You can
visit the ski area’s website at www.cataloochee.com.
Ski Area
The cost for skiing will be $93.00 again this
year. This will cover the ski rental, a
group t-shirt, and lift ticket for all day Thursday and Friday. If you would like to rent a snow board
instead, the cost for the two day rental is $133.00 plus a $60.00 deposit. A
$20.00 non-refundable deposit will be due shortly. Also, once the final amount is due and
submitted, the ski area will not issue us any refunds.
Hotel
We have blocked 20 rooms at the Best Western Mountain
Brook Inn in Maggie Valley. This hotel
is next door to the Microtel Inn that we stayed last year. The rooms have been recently remodeled and
are larger than last year’s.
Rates for January 6 through 8th will be $46.74 plus 12% tax per
night. Friday night will be slightly
higher. The deadline for securing the
room is December 6, 2009. Cancellation
policy is one month before you arrive. You
will need to reserve the room with a credit card or send a deposit one month
before you arrive or you room will be released. For more information about the
