Presidents Message:
By the time you get to read this, we will have seen our first snow. Thanksgiving Day provided us with a blanket of fresh powder, but not nearly enough around here. I know I got excited though, because it really makes me believe the ski season is here.
Eric, from Alpine Haus, was the scheduled speaker at our
November meeting, but Dusty came in his place.
It seems that Eric had gone to
I also want to give everyone a heads-up that since our meeting this month is a week early, we only have one day to turn our pre-buy tickets around. We will pick them up at the Council meeting on the 13th. Please be understanding, as there may be some extra paperwork when you come to pick them up. For all tickets available but not picked up in November that will not be the case. Please understand that there is a bit of accounting, so be patient with our volunteers. They are all working very hard, and deserve our thanks for their efforts.
We also announced at the past meetings that next year is the
CCSS's 20th anniversary. We
are having a contest for a 20th anniversary logo. We want to put that on commemorative items to
be offered later for sale. There will be
a prize for the winning logo. The
contest is open to all members (and the kids).
As explained in November, one person (Sylvia Nolan has volunteered to be
the “Collection Administrator of the CCSS Artwork.”) will collect the entries
and number them for the judges to review.
This way, judges can not be swayed by the person who sent in the
design. Entries should be done by hand
and the logo can not be more that 8.5 X 11 inches, or smaller than 2.5 X 3
inches. Send entries to: CCSS c/o Sylvia Nolan,
Well, there is a lot going on, and more items in the newsletter for information on the upcoming season, so read on!
