237.0. "FALL FOLIAGE WEEKEND!!" by AYRPLN::VENTURA (Make the world your playground.) Tue Aug 09 1994 23:17

Yes, I know .. it's still summer.  But when you're planning these trips,
you HAVE to make reservations early!  

*****  Announcing .. Our third annual Fall Foliage Weekend! *****


Dates:  Friday, October 7th through Sunday, October 9th.  

Why:  To go leaf-peeping and generally have a great time with new and old 
	friends.  

Price:  $70 per person, including food for the entire weekend.

Yes, that's right .. we're planning ANOTHER fun filled trip back up to the 
same area that we've gone to for the past three years for fall foliage 
trips, winter ski trips, and spring ski trips.  However, I hesitated a 
LITTLE bit too long and couldn't get the larger condo that we usually get.  
Never fear, though .. Holly has her resources!  We did get a second condo 
across the lawn from the smaller condo that we usually rent.  However, it's 
not as big, so we have to limit the amount of people we have to 15.  Also, 
it's a BIT more expensive, that's why the higher price than last year. 
(actually, it's the going rate, but the other person gives us a discount 
because we go there EVERY year.)

Food consists of Friday night dinner, Saturday breakfast, lunch, and
dinner, and Sunday breakfast and lunch.  I DON'T SUPPLY ALCOHOL, but
will supply non-alcoholic beverages.  So, in other words, BYOB.
Ask ANYONE who has gone on past trips, we ALWAYS have PLENTY of food, and a 
good variety too.

For those of you who HAVEN'T gone on these trip, boy you're missing out
on some great fun.  Some of the highlights of the past trips have been as 
follows:

A certain embarrassing "announcement" to the entire group. (-:
Very innocent phrases being turned around to be not so innocent. (-:
A certain person's "flying" lesson.
Playing poker for match sticks or tootsie-rolls
Flying socks. 
A trip to North Conway (only about 25 minutes away)
Whipped cream. 
JENGA!!!

I'll let YOU figure them out. (-:

Anyway, if you'd like to go on this trip, please let me know.  I'll need a 
deposit off $20 before August 27th.  The next payment of $25 will be due by 
September 17, and the final $25 will be due by October 1.

Send me mail and I'll let you know how to get the money to me.  

Hope to see everyone there!

Holly

    There is one more thing I forgot to mention about this trip.  With the
    weekend fee, we have free use of the Nordic club house.  This includes
    a weight room, game room, indoor swimming pool, and hot tub.
