XMAS SHOPPING
Sorry to keep messing you about, but due to some technical difficulties with their systems, Skimax will NOT be h...osting our Xmas social next week. Those of you who were planning on buying lots of Xmas presents for yourselves and your loved ones, can still go along to Skimax and get a special deal on already discounted items. You will have to ask for Jörg or Karsten and have your membership cards ready! Those of you who are going to Lech may want to get your required shopping done this weekend – to take advantage of Skimax's special offerings! ;-)
Happy Shopping

Schweiz: Infos über Lawinengefahr
Wer dieser Tage in der Schweiz unterwegs ist, sollte sich über mögliche Lawinengefahren informieren. Heftige Schneefälle vor allem im Nordtessin haben bereits zu Chaos auf den Straßen geführt. Der Verkehr am Gotthardmassiv war zeitweise lahmgelegt. Auf dem Oberalppass wurde ein Zug der ...Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn von einer Lawine aus den Schienen gerissen. Zwei Passagiere wurden leicht verletzt. Die Bahnstrecke zwischen Andermatt und Sedrun bleibt bis auf weiteres geschlossen. Täglich aktuelle Schnee- und Lawinenprognosen gibt es auf der Homepage des Instituts für Schnee- und Lawinenforschung in Davos. Dort kann das Merkblatt "Achtung Lawinen" in einer vollständig überarbeiteten Neuauflage kostenlos heruntergeladen werden.

So don't forget: before you all rush out and buy new gear, Skimax our sponsor will be keeping the tills open for us to take advantage of their bargains! The planned social should is now the 16th Dec. We'll keep you posted, but if you do go before make sure you ask about a discount! ;-)
Thank you to all who attended the AGM on 24th November at Waxy's. It's just one of those things that we have to do.
We have some great trips opening and closing at this social so make sure you get there early enough to secure your places. Also, we're approaching the deadline for Lapland trip – even though this sign-up night for Lapland is not final one – interested members should book flight asap and sign-up!

NEW METHOD OF PAYMENT
As many of you are already aware, we have made the long-overdue decision to cease accepting cash for the payment of membership fees and trips for the coming season and move to a method of electronic funds transfer. Having analysed all the electronic payment methods (credit cards, POS systems, bank transfers, PayPal etc.) the only one that makes sense for us is the direct debit mandate. Please have your bank details available at membership sign up. For further information you can check out the FAQ's on our website.

Feel free to come along to the club socials for more information from our very own Finn, Mari!
You've always dreamt of it... Here is it! For the first time in its history, the club takes you to the North. We ...will be based in Levi, the finest of Finnish ski resorts, a world-cup alpine ski resort with 27 lifts and 44 runs thereof 15 with lightning, superpipe, halfpipe and snowpark. So, yes, downhill skiing (and snowboarding) is included, but not only. The true "Lappland adventures" experience is also about cross-country skiing (230km skiing tracks thereof 28km with lightning), ice fishing / snow shoeing, and visit to really exotic places like the Lainio snow village. Not to forget the numerous optional activities: husky-sledding, reindeer safaris, ice swimming, arctic diving, or snowmobiling (886km of tracks!!)... Imagine... Why not a night safari to a traditional Lappish hut where you'll be watching the mystical northern lights while cooking sausages (oh, how exotic for us Frankfurters) and testing the local specialties. And back to alpine or cross-country skiing the next morning, in the most natural landscape. After one week of that regime, you will never feel so fit.
Levi is easily accessible from Kittilä airport (8km), so don't hesitate too long and quickly book your flight. We will be staying in one of the best hotels of Levi. The Hotel Hullu Poro (the "Crazy Reindeer") is located in the centre of the village, very close to the slopes. It has numerous restaurants, cocktail bar and Porocks nightclub and (of course!) Finnish wellness area. Let our Finnish TC guide you through this unique experience, not to be missed. Snow and fun guaranteed!
PS: Some people have already booked their return flights for around 300-360,00 EUR. Get them now while they are cheap!
Time:3:55PM Saturday, February 20th
