As the Christmas / Holiday season gets underway, the Jaycees will be busier than ever -- without question, December is the Jaycees' busiest Community Development month of the year.

There are many projects on the Jaycee roster that can give you the feel-good-feeling—whether it’s assisting the Discretionary Fund with deliveries, assembling fruit baskets, assisting with sand deliveries, singing carols on the Common, helping assemble the common nativity set, decorating the common, making friends at the progressive dinner, or passing out hot chocolate to children. Why don’t you give one of them a try this season?

Check HERE to keep up with the ever-changing December schedule!

January 22-24, 2009

From Julie Grant...

Let me know ASAP if you are joining us for this awesome trip. I am planning on us filling up the entire Inn. Since we will be taking up the Inn, they are including a 5star dinner on Saturday night following the FREE Wine and Cheese party.

There will also be two outstanding breakfasts included. Let’s just put it this way, I enjoy the skiing, but I go to Mount Snow for the food and the hot tub!!!! The hot tub is a 15 person outside hot tub over looking Mount Snow. There are also saunas, and a bar.

You bring your own alcohol and put it in the bar. You can also bring bottles of wine to have with dinner. There are two fireplaces, one in the bar next to the big screen t.v., and one on the top floor, there is also a t.v. room, and there is a pool table in the bar.

Prices are all inclusive for the weekend and include tax and gratuity.

$185 for each person double occupancy.
$295 for one person in a room, so I suggest you bring a buddy.
$160 each for 3 people in the room.

We will get group lift ticket rates. They are $45 for a full day on Friday, $57 Sat., $50 for Sunday, and $91 for a two day. 3-day is $126. We also get group rates on rentals and lessons.

I will be collecting deposits this month, and the balance in December.
