Upcoming list view

ARE YOU READY? The season is almost here, and it's only one month until the first trip to Mammoth! It will be the first weekend in December (4th - 6th).

The Plan
Friday Night: On your own (I will be there by 4pm to check us in and hand out the key to the first member that arrives for that condo)
Saturday Day: Ski/Snowboard
Saturday Night: We usually have a mixer in one of the condos on Saturday night which is BYOB and maybe a "chip-in" for take out (pizza or the like). Afterwards, it's usually off to Whiskey Creek, where we dance the night away.
Sunday: Check-out is by 10am. One person in each condo needs to be designated as the one to return the key to the main office. Most people check-out early and Ski/Snowboard for the remainder of the day.

We are planning on staying at the Chateau de Montagne. These condos have 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and will sleep up to 10 people. The type of beds in each condo is different, but the choices usually include kings, queens, twins, and bunk beds. We do make a rooming list based on friends, or if you are a single or a couple, so once you are paid in full, you may select your choice of bed (i.e. a twin instead of a bunk bed, a queen for you and a friend, etc.).

The bathrooms are for everyone, so get in and get out so someone else can use the bathroom. There are 3.3 people for each bathroom. There is no such thing as a private bathroom on these trips. Sharing is the key word for the weekend!

Okay, so the plan is to fill up one condo at a time. The first 10 paid will be in the first condo, the next 10, will get the next one, and so on. I am only planning on a max of 3 condos at the moment. If the condos don't fill up, the rate of the rental may change to reflect the number of people sleeping in that rental, so please don't be surprised if I have to ask for a few extra bucks to cover the costs. Currently, the rental costs are $70 per person. If we don't get at least 10 people, the minimum I would put into a condo would be 6, where the cost would increase to $105 per person. As you can see, we probably wouldn't want to go below this number because it can become very costly. I've also implemented the use of PayPal to make things easier.

Carpooling: Carpooling is a must. Please, we need people to volunteer to drive since we have limited parking at this facility. If you need a ride, I can try to help match people up, but you know best where you live, the areas around you, and the time you'd like to leave. It makes it easy if you post your request on the event page, either under the comments section or in the notes when you RSVP. It also helps if you make the effort to drive to meet your carpool. As a courtesy to the driver, please be prepared to split the costs of the gas, and maybe even pay for lunch or a drink. This is what makes it affordable to go to places like Mammoth more frequently. Don’t forget to make arrangements for your return trip.

Food & Accommodations: Sorry, but food is not included in this trip. To reduce costs, some members get together and split the costs for meals. Additionally, please keep in mind that your mother doesn't live here, so you are responsible for cleaning up after your own mess. Condos are to be left in the condition you received them in; dishes done and trash thrown out.

Payments: We now offer PayPal! But I need your payment when you sign up in order to confirm your attendance for this trip. I cannot confirm the next condo until I have the payment for the next 10. Please click on the link below in order to make your payment.

** Keep in mind, if you sign up now, but have a problem later, it’s okay as long as we have a replacement for you. You are required to find the replacement in order to get a refund. We will try to help, but it’s ultimately up to you.

Lastly, if you have not done so, please fill out the waiver in the group’s Files folder and mail it with $5 to Nancy Sanford at PO Box 2906, Big Bear Lake, CA 92315. This waiver is mandatory in order for you to attend this trip. The $5 donation helps with the deposits on the condos and any cancellation penalties that we may incur. Any remaining funds will be used for a party at the end of the year.

Thanks everyone! I look forward to seeing you all up there!

Leave your cares and or your significant others at home and trek on up to Mammoth for an estrogen get away!

We can do whatever we want when we want. I rented a small, well located, condo within walking distance of the village and Gondola. You can ski/board when~eva you want and be wild and crazy without worrying about parking or driving home afterward.

The condo is booked for three nights starting Thursday January 21 @ 4pm. Sunday the 24th all must be packed/tidied early as checkout is 10 am. I have room for 6 women.

Important!!!-Please discuss leave times prior as some like to ski on Sunday and some don't. Also discuss how to pay for gas prior with your carpool buddies. Car poolers please make things easy for drivers and meet them in route or at their home. I always board Sunday as it less crowded than Friday.

I will start the carpool talk myself two weeks prior to the event as the guest list will not be set till then.

Yes Wine Tasting Of Course
I was planning on a wine tasting gig like I did a few years ago. Since the winner was an Argentinian wine I thought we would explore that region further. So the theme is "South of the equator Reds." Not limited to South America of course! I am open to all suggestions for fun activities. We usually go dancing one night.

The best thing about this location is that the roads are usually clear up to the condos meaning in all likely hood you will not need to put on chains. But please have them with you in case.

Fine print-I have already paid for the place. The dates cannot be changed. I do not get a refund and neither will you once you pay unless the spot is filled.

The spirit of this event is women enjoying other women's company. Please do not leak info to your mates so they can rent a condo next door and crash everything we do.

This has happened in the past...

If our guys happen to be up there at the same time that is fine but please take this time to spend time with the other women coming that also love the snow.

Also be comfortable skiing/boarding alone as we all may not be on the same level.

Procedure-
Sign up~yes
Send me $135.00 via
paypal
to "romeblu151@aol.com"~ right after signing up here
First that pay get first bed choice.

In order to keep track you will be put on wait-list or deleted until you confirm with payment. That way others that really want to go can pay and get on.

I have rented 2 large bedroom, one large loft with 2.5 bathroom condo, Fireside at the Village, which is even a closer walk than the village condo to the Gondola that takes us to Canyon lodge.

Depending on how many we can get (the place sleeps up to 13), the price per person would be $150 for all 3 nights if I can get 13 people to fill this place.
I already have two people signed up so three of us are going to take the first bedroom. Kids (12 and up) are allowed on this trip. No dogs or cats allowed.
