Dear Patrick,
 

Snow has begun falling in different spots in the lower 48.  We're only a few weeks away from Opening Day at many of New England's ski resorts.  Before that happens, we have a LOT on tap (has there ever been a time when that wasn't true for this club???).
 
We will meet at Alpine Haus this Wednesday
 

Important note:  This week's meeting (Oct 17) will be held at Alpine Haus in Wethersfield, CT at 7 p.m.  Barbara Wysocki and Lisa Durland will both be at Alpine Haus Wednesday night:  Barbara will be selling lodge vouchers and Lisa will begin taking lodge reservations. The lodge's webpage has just been updated with info on innkeeper responsibilities, bed rates, etc.

NYC Bus trip
 

Kate Robertson reports that there are still a few empty seats for Saturday's trip to NYC.  Contact her at 860-344-1292.  If you're departing from Stanley GC, be there no later than 7:45 a.m. If departing from Cromwell, be there no later than 8:00 a.m.
 

Snowball!

Only one week remains to purchase tickets for the Snowball at the discounted rate of $20/ea. (After Oct. 24th, tickets can be purchased the night of the Snowball for $25/ea.)  See Jean Clark (jeclark@uchc.edu, 860-919-3247).

Newsletter Committee
 

  A group of members chaired by Kathy Culhane is forming to begin the process of reviewing the Monthly Newsletter and the costs associated with it. We are looking for alternate ways of getting Club information to all of the Members and want your input.  If you would like to be a part of this group and have not signed up yet please see Kathy Culhane at a meeting by 10/17 or contact her at 860-537-3233.

Who is this MTL member?
 

member109member105 We've been running our contest for a few weeks and members have been having fun trying to guess whose high school photo is depicted each week.  The gentleman at the left is the "mystery guest" for Week 8.  You're getting a sneak peak at Week 9's entry.  Submit your guesses to  webmaster@mtlski.com.  Click here to learn the identities of earlier weeks. Have you submitted your photo yet?

 
Sincerely,

Bulk TIckets
As you know, Killington and Pico will not be participating in the bulk ticket program this year. 

I've run across some information that may provide a little insight into their thinking.
