Message from VP Ski Trips, Carol Pattison

Hi Gator Skiers and Non-Skiers, Update on Snowmass. The air is to Denver instead of Eagle. The cost of Eagle was prohibitive, and we had to make a change. Air prices are out of sight. Sorry for the change. Good news - The price of Steamboat has been reduced to $2820 due to the price of air. How do you figure! Check with me for separate no air and no lift prices. I want to let you know I am available to all of you to answer your questions and hopefully solve your problems. That may not always be possible, but I will make every effort to come to successful solutions. Our lineup for the 2023 Ski Season is as follows: - Taos, NM – January 14-21, Patti Bochniak Trip Leader pattibochniak@gmail.com, Space for 1 female - Steamboat, CO – FSC Trip January 21-28 Trip Leader kmonz11@gmail.com, Space for 1 female - Solden & Solzburg, Austria – January 28 – February 7 Kelly Lunsford Trip Leader kellykay27@bellsouth.net, Space Available - Mammoth, CA – February 11-18 Trip Leader TBD, Space Available - Snowmass, CO – February 25 – March 4 Sabina Cowie Trip Leader, Sold Out - Malta/Madonna di Campiglio, Italy – February 28 – March 12 Terry Collins Taucher Trip Leader tctaucher@comcast.net, Space Available - Big Sky, MT - March 18-25 Dawn McCormick Trip Leader dmcormick@wm.com, Sold Out  And to my trip leaders, I am here for you and will be available for your questions and anything you need help with. I promise to answer your emails as soon as possible and get you the answers you need for the trips. I know you all want to do the best you can for your trip participants and make your trip a memorable event. While we are just beginning our 2023 trip schedule, I will be considering the 2024 schedule of trips. I would like to have your input on destinations you would like to visit. It is necessary to plan trips at least a year in advance to be able to secure contracts and space at the resorts. Another consideration is the Ikon and Epic Passes for lift tickets. Many Epic Pass locations are not offering group lift tickets but will offer daily Epic Passes. Feel free to contact me with your questions and ski trip suggestions. I look forward to hearing from you. cpattiso@aol.com or 772-323-0315 Thank you again for your support and skiing ideas, which make our Ski Trip Program the best. Carol Pattison – VP Ski Trips
