Happy New Year SKIBACS retirees! This season is starting off with copious quantities of snow as the La Nina prognosticators were hoping. Looks like the temps will stay cool so skiing next week should be very nice.

To kick off the 2025 ski season we’re having a New Year’s feast at the lodge next Tuesday, the 7th of January. We’ll be trying out the new kitchen facilities and serving up schnitzel with homemade spaetzle and spiced cabbage. The rest is potluck so please bring an appetizer, side, salad or dessert if you would like to come up. There may be some pilsner as well as this is the traditional schnitzel bevy.

Dinner will be served around 6ish with socializing prior and a possible Yahtzee tournament (or something) after 🙂

If you would like to attend, PLEASE reply to this email so we can have enough food for all attendees. Please let me know how many will be attending and what you’re thinking of bringing (not required to bring anything). I will send out a follow up email on Monday to let folks know what other dishes folks are bringing to mitigate duplicates.

So, make your reservations at the lodge for this special event. Remember, retirees get a $10 discount at the lodge Sunday through Thursday. To take advantage of this rate use the coupon code retiree2025 when checking out. Contact the SKIBACS receptionist Kellie at 206-400-7542 you have any problems with the reservations.

In addition, I will be sending out survey results and Retiree Small Trip information in the next few days. The kickoff feast could be a great opportunity for folks interested in the Small Trips to connect directly with like-minded folks. Hope to see you there!
