The response to the 3rd Annual Snowboard & Ski Day has been overwhelming! We have more than twice the number of participants than last year already registered. What would normally be good news is actually bad news.
If we add any more people, the slopes at Mystic Mountain will be overcrowded. The rental of skis could take over an hour, lift lines would have a 30 minute wait and safety would become a concern. For this reason we have to limit participation this weekend to only those who registered in advance. We are extremely sorry about any inconvenience this might cause you or your unit. This change is in your best interest as your day of skiing would be not be enjoyable with a huge crowd.
THE GOOD NEWS:
Mystic Mountain is offering us a second weekend of snowboarding & skiing on Saturday, March 1 and Sunday, March 2. It will be a duplicate of this weekend including the same great price! In order to avoid the overcrowding, we will need advance registration via e-mail (GPC_Venturing@verizon.net) or telephone (412-922-8949) by Tuesday, February 26. We will not be accepting forms or money in advance – you will bring the registration form with you and pay when you arrive. This allows you more flexibility as there would be no penalty in the event your numbers change.
Attached is a copy of the new form. You can also download them at the website http://ski.306-bsa.org.
Thank you for your understanding. Please let us know if you can join us for Weekend #2!
