breakfast food, lunch type food, hot cocoa, etc...
You can also purchase food at
the resort restaurants, or free load off your neighbors, lol.

These items are absolutely
necessary if you want to enjoy yourself skiing and stay warm. Most of you
will already have most of these items. The proper gear will keep you warm
all day. The wrong gear will have you to lose the feeling in your
toes/fingers.
We do not ski in jeans or
leather jackets!!!!!
Also remember to have your
best boots, warm fleeces, jeans, extra socks, swimming suit, long johns, and fly gear for the
parties.
Please also pack your gear
for the following parties:
Friday – Meet and Greet,
Speed Dating, House parties, Official after party (comfortable dress)
Saturday – “The Pajama and
Lingerie Party” (pajamas and lingerie!!!)
Sunday – Winter Hedonism…

If I forgot to address
anything, please let me know. Look for updates through email and on the
