Pack 250,

This winter we are venturing out for our first Pack Ski Trip.  We’ve selected the Appalachian Ski Mountain on February 17^th.  Our goal is to have fun and earn the Snow Ski and Board Sports Pin and Belt Loop.  The Resort is offering a special rate to all in our Scout Group.  This includes Scouts, Parents, Siblings and Leaders.  The cost is $31 for lift ticket, ski rental and a 1 hour lesson.  All members of our group under the age of 16 will be required to rent a helmet for $3 plus tax.  Adults are encourage to wear a helmet.  Also, the Resort has agreed to provide us with the “Shape Skis” to make learning easier and the day more enjoyable.

You can sign up for the Trip by emailing me (rjm71@comporium.net) with the name of each person in your family and the age of each minor in the family.  Registration for the ski trip will close on Jan 28^th (Pinewood Derby Day).  All monies will be due on the 28^th.  I will be at the Derby to answer any questions and collect monies for the trip.  You can mail or deliver the monies to my home (1314 Mallard Ridge Drive, Tega Cay)  Please make all checks out to BSA Pack 250.  The fees need to be submitted to the resort 14 days in advance to secure our group reservation.

There is some paperwork to be completed.  First, you’ll need to submit the BSA Scout Medical Form parts A & B.  Parts A&B can be filled out by the Parents.  Parts C & D are not required.  This is the same form required to be on file with the Pack for any outing.  The whole BSA Medical Form is attached to this email.  Second, we will need to fill out the rental agreement forms.  These forms will be distributed at the Resort.

Directions to the Resort, instructions and meeting times will be distributed at a later date.
