Have you sent in your Club Race registration form yet?  Race will be held at Okemo on Feb 25.

Interested in an informal interclub ski race?  Mt. Laurel has been invited to participate in the inaugural Okemo Valley Interclub Race on Saturday, February 4th at noon.   It will be held on Okemo's new NASTAR course on Bull Run.  Kids are welcome.  We'll be competing against three other clubs:  Manchester, Norwalk, and Grumman.  Cost is expected to be $20 which covers the race fee, medals, and munchies and soft drinks afterward at the Grumman Lodge in downtown Ludlow.  BYOB. We need to field at least ten racers in order to have our points count.  Please let me know ASAP if interested as I need to give them a headcount soon.  Pat Moore webmaster@mtlski.com 

On Snow, the CSC annual Winter Carnival, is coming up sooner than you realize.  Jonathan Houck has put together an informational page. Check it out.  We really need to get our registration completed quickly.  Please download and sign both the Pico Waiver and the CSC Waiver and either fax them to Rob Dexter at 860 713-7270 or scan a signed copy and email them to jhhouck@cox.net.  Here's the schedule.

Shame on you if you Missed the Disco themed Murder Mystery at the Mountain Laurel Lodge on January 21st.
