President’s Message
Well, here I am, president again. I will do my best to
bring you another great ski club year. Wow ! Where has
the summer gone ? Here we are at the start of a new Lit-
tle Rock Ski Club year. Our first meeting is just days
away on Tuesday, August 12th at the Crowne Plaza. I
think we have a great year planned for you. You can read
about all the upcoming events listed here in the newslet-
ter. I do want to mention the two great ski trips we have
planned for this season. The first one is to Steamboat
Springs on Saturday January 31, 2015, staying at the
Storm Meadows condos. The second one is to BANFF,
CANADA March 4-11, 2015. We will be staying at the
famous Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel for four nights and
then three nights at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise
Hotel. These both promise to be AWESOME trips. Just
look further in the newsletter for all the details.
I hope to see you all next week.
