Some of you have Bittersweet Season Passes
Some of you have a White Gold card that has Bittersweet on it.
Some of you have bought the $ 35 cards with a discount on them from Dorothy.
Special discount from WM Ski Club Paid Members only:
Shirley has 7 complimentary tickets that came through our advertising with Bittersweet. These still are good. We have decided to use them and create a 2 for 1 deal for you if you are a current ski club member. We could do this for 14 of you. You would buy one ticket and would be given a free one to split. One person would have to pay the buyer with cash so :
Bring $ 27 in cash to settle with your ticket partner when we get to the resort. Meet in front of the fireplace before you buy your tickets.
Shirley also has one white gold card ticket she could sell to someone who does not qualify for the membership deal above.
( Ie. younger than 65 or a non member ).
Planned Trip Itinerary: It won’t be skiing up north or out west but it could be a fun day with GGRSC skiing friends. Join us for a weekday adventure !! In spite of the weather this season, we have been getting great turn outs to our park and rides this year so don't miss out on the local action.
