Ski Weekend

Killington, VT

January 24th - 26th 2003 - (Friday - Sunday)

Joint ski trip with AONY & AOB.

For those who have been here; you know the drill. For those who have only skied locally in the hills of NY, NJ and PA; you have only skied the equivalent of Speed Bumps on a residential street. Come and ski at a real ski resort. If you want statistics, please log onto www.killington.com for all the information you need. We were here in March 2002 on a joint AO and NAAAP ski weekend via motorcoach from NY. Due to warm March weather our skiing was a wash on Sunday. It rained and quite a lot of people obtained vouchers for a lift ticket good for one calendar year. We invite those people to come and use your voucher. We also invite others in the AO family to join us this weekend. This is joint trip for sibling chapters of Asian Outdoors; Boston and New York.

 For X - C ski enthusiasts; nearby Mountain Top Inn and Mountain Meadows XC caters to you.

This trip will be a departure from our usual route of condos for our accommodations. At the time of booking, the only vacancies were priced in the stratosphere. Due to the lack of moderate priced lodging we have opted to use the Motel route. After all, we are here to ski and although amenities are nice; we like to save a few bucks too. By utilizing this method we can accommodate triples & quads in addition to the usual double occupancy. Asian Outdoors has reserved a limited number of rooms at a motel within ten minutes of Killington's Snowshed Lodge. The only amenity offered at our motel is a Continental Breakfast.

The rates for members are as follows for our two-night stay and they include the VT tax. Double Occupancy is $132, Triple Occupancy is $88 and Quad Occupancy is $66. Non-members are to pay a $5 surcharge. As stated before, we only have a limited number of rooms - so it is in your best interest to make decision ASAP. Additional costs to consider are lift tickets/trail passes rentals, food and transportation. Transportation to/from Killington is the individual's responsibility. AO will make every effort to help arrange carpool rides but this is not guaranteed. The carpool fee per-passenger is $40.00/person (from NY).

As with all our trips; capacity is limited and is on a first-come, first served basis. Upon making your reservation; you have five business days to make full payment to: Asian Outdoors. Postmarked envelopes will be checked to ensure compliance. Obtain address for mailings when you RSVP.
