This month we had a great SNO at Mama Rojo on the patio at Lake Hefner. Thanks everyone for coming out. We got to celebrate Michael Bellis’s 50th birthday. Check out the photo! He sure is looking handsome and rather dapper. At the end of this month, we had scheduled the our annual float trip. But due to a lack of sign ups, we have cancelled this trip. We’ll try it again next year.

Coming up August 15th is our nighttime scavenger hunt. We’ll meet up and roam the city to check off our little list. RSVP to rose.chris@gmail.com to save your spot.
And don’t forget to check the schedule for our SNOs! The next one will be in Norman at one of Norman’s favorite hot spots, The Mont. If you haven’t been there in a while, it’s still just as good as it always has been. It’s mid-summer, but there’s still plenty of fun to be had before the skis come out.

Hello OKC Ski Club members. Here we are "its July" and I’m sure your heavy into your summer activities. Although it’s hot outside some of us are still trying to cool off by working on OKC ski club winter trip plans. At least it works mentally. (So they say).

I mentioned in last news letter we would be limiting the number of trips to six, however since then we have added a seventh and maybe by next month we will add a eight.

Here are the latest dates we have. Please remember, these dates and locations are not set in stone and are subject to change.

8. April, mystery trip...somewhere where the snow is good and the lodging costs are hot.

We’ll that’s the latest till next month when we’ll have all the details, final costs etc.

I’ve forgiven my husband for taking me on a “warm up” on a steep mogul double blue cause he ended up in the same situation on a “rocky” steep double black. We had great condo mates, Dennis and Ole. Had a great communal breakfast with Gary and Susan Jones, Craig, Bob & Peggy. They came to eat up Gary’s breakfast burritos fantastic with the Cholula sauce and Marty and my leftovers. On the last day, three days into my new boots, 4:01 off, I actually kept up with the freeway skiers … you know who you are. Sign us up for next year Dave!!! Thanks so much. Lilly & Marty

A confident skier is a good skier. Unfortunately, I am still picking up the pieces of my shattered confidence after having a GREAT grandmother ski circles around me. Thanks Bette! Bob

This has been a fantastic and fun time for us as a family, and we could not have chosen a better time to come. The weather was great, the lines were short and the snow was fresh! We loved the street festival and would welcome a trip here at this time of year. We really loved the people on this trip, as well as the Downtown Doggies. The Witter’s

As always, a fantastic trip with my ski family. A wonderful ending to a great ski season. We laugh at getting lost on the trails and laugh at each other for whatever! How about a couple of great lady skiers falling in the ladies room. Not telling who, sure glad they had on their helmets. Dolores Hopeman

I learned a valuable lesson. Stay on the same side of the trees that your ski partner is on. Lilly & I were out on the first day in Prospect bowl. We came around the tree and stopped at the same place. Then we played “Twister” and landed on the ground. We were so tangled up – someone came by to help us. Janie Hlinicky

A great trip captain, great skiing, great friends and great shopping. What more could you ask for. Can’t wait for next season. Linda Wells

The high point of my trip was discovering that Randy Montgomery and I were in the same classroom from kindergarten to the fourth grade at Columbus grade school. We also played baseball on the same team for the Columbus Zebra’s. I was the pitcher and he was the catcher. As for the ski trip, there is no better mountain & town than Telluride, CO. Keith Ahpeatone
