The Venture Scouts from Troop 125 will be taking their annual Winter Ski Weekend February 21-23. This year we will be skiing and boarding at June Mountain. This beautiful location is generally less crowded than Mammoth Mountain, and is located just 30 minutes further north. From the slopes, you can view the beautiful June Lake Loop and Mono Lake. We will be staying at the Fern Creek Lodge, just ½ mile from the ski lifts. We have made arrangements for a large cabin that can accommodate 14 people, and an additional cabin that can hold up to an additional 7.

We will meet at Glenoaks Park at 4:00 PM on Friday the 21^st, and return around 9:00 PM on the 23^rd. Scouts are encouraged to bring school books, as study time will be at a premium this weekend!

The cost for the weekend is $135. Included will be:

2 days of lift tickets (Saturday and Sunday)

2 nights of lodging (Friday and Saturday)

2 breakfasts (Saturday and Sunday)

1 dinner (Saturday)

Transportation

The Scouts will need to bring cash for dinner on the way up on Friday, lunches on Saturday and Sunday at the ski lodge, and dinner on the way home. $25 to $30 should be more than enough to cover. Skis or boards should be rented here in town to minimize cost. If desired, 2 hour group lessons can be taken for an additional charge of $42, and a 5 hour group lesson can be purchased for $60.

In order to secure accommodations, we will need a commitment at the troop meeting on Wednesday, January 22 and a non-refundable* deposit of $50 to hold your space.

*If you need to back out for any reason, you will need to find a replacement from the eligible members of the troop in order to recover the deposit. If the trip is cancelled, the deposit will be refunded.
