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
new families, 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. The school will not be providing
chaperones. 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.
