Attention Ski & Snowboard Club: BIG change for this week’s ski trip. We are now going to Bear Creek on WEDNESDAY not Thursday. That means we are going to Bear Creek tomorrow. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes but the weather isn’t playing nice this year. If you have remaining sessions on your Bear Creek pass, you can still use them during the week at any time (except holidays like President’s Day).
See Mr. Shortuse or Ms. Brimhall if you have questions.
