About the Newsletter:
Dear LSC Members,
The ski season is officially underway! Our Mount Snow and Elk trips went
out in January, and we have several more trips coming up in February and
March. Jackson Hole is waitlist only at this point, but there is still room on
our Loon/Cannon, Blue Mountain, and Seven Springs trips, so get signed up
today.
Another big event coming up is our Club Race and Family Ski Day at Ski
Roundtop on February 7. If you have never raced before, don't let the race
scare you away from enjoying a great day with us. We have racers of all
ages, sizes, and shapes. As long as you can ski down an intermediate slope,
you should join the race. And even if you don't want to race, you are welcome to join us for the day and enjoy the benefits of a group rate lift ticket
and after race party.
One of my favorite evens of the year is coming up on February 18th. Our
annual auction has benefited the Lancaster Special Olympic Ski Team, Big
Brothers Big Sisters, and other charities. We're always looking for items to
auction off at the event. If you have something to donate, please contact
Kathy Burnett at 717-799-6462 or kcburnett@dejazzd.com. Please let Kathy
know what you will be donating at least a couple days before the auction, so
she doesn't have to make a lot of last minute adjustments to the list.
It's also not too early to get signed up for the spring dance, so please check
out the details on that here in the newsletter.

Trip Committee Update:
Wow, what a Blizzard! We hope that everyone had the chance to get out and enjoy all the new snow!. We would like to
thank everyone that joined us on our first trip of the year to Mt. Snow. All things considered with the weather before the
Blizzard, our day of skiing/boarding on Saturday was surprisingly good and conditions were much better than anticipated.
The day trips to Blue Mt. (Fri.Feb.12th) with Jason Frederick and the trip to Seven Springs (Fri. March 4th) with Doug
Helman still have a few openings so please send your checks ASAP to get signed up.
The Loon/Cannon (March 10-13) weekend trip still has space available. This trip is now open to all members within
the EPSC. Don’t miss the opportunity to ski TWO New Hampshire mountains in ONE weekend. Contact Jon Doman to

Please fill out the trip surveys to help us with future planning of trips.
Here’s a glimpse at some of the destinations that we are looking at for next season: Whistler/Blackcomb and the EPSC
Carnival trip to Lake Placid/ Whiteface, NY. If one of those locations appeals to you, your family and friends, please
