It’s officially summer…. though it’s been HOT in Central Fl for sometime already! Escape with OSTC to the COOL of Blue Ridge Mts and white water rafting later this month! Space for a few more if you act now! https://orlandoskiclub.com/page-1848810
Another way to think COOL is to visit Orlando Ski and Travel Club website to select your Ski/Board trip for 2018-19 Season. All trips are posted and accepting sign ups. OSTC sent Trip Leaders to the two upcoming season Florida Ski Council trips (Big Sky & Park City) to coordinate logistical details, both trips promise to be a BLAST! And the FSC Int’l trip to Italy offers a unique all day ski experience, the Sella Ronda.
Come join us for our annual official BIG Trip Kick Off Event to be held at Dubsdread Historic Ballroom, Sunday, July 29th, 3:00-5:00 p.m. We’ll have drawing for Door Prizes (to include gift cards for Peter Glenn, Dubsdread dining, Winter Club Ski private lesson, plus more). We also have several Trip Credit drawings for all persons with a paid deposit for an OSTC 2018-19 trip. https://orlandoskiandtravelclub.com/page-1848870
This is always our most attended event; all the Trip Leaders will be present with Trip Fliers and other promotional materials. Golden opportunity to talk to them about each trip. You will be able to sign up and pay a deposit at the event; however, if you’ve already decided on your trips, best to sign up in advance, Sign-Up table is chaotic.
Speaking of GOLDEN, we will be proudly displaying our FLORIDA GOLD CUP which Orlando beat out all the other Florida Clubs to win in January at Steamboat. First time for Orlando in many years, so come ogle the cup, it’s a beauty!
It was my honor on behalf of OSTC membership to present a donation check to both the Florida School for Deaf and Blind, plus the Veterans Adaptive Sports. Each has a ski program enabling persons with disabilities to experience our beloved sport. Both agencies were most appreciative. Every OSTC trip has a small donation amount built in which we donate annually to these agencies. Thank you for this privilege.
OSTC members had a most enjoyable “Historic Walking Tour of Sanford” in June, 35 of us joined the walk, wrapping up with delicious BBQ at Fuel with jam session in The Alley next door. For July join us for “Paint Nite” at Bucca di Beppo in Maitland.
Since our focus is on the Sunday, July 29th event at Dubsdread, we will forego our social at Ale House for July.
See you on the 29th at Dubsdread!
