Hiya,
Well it finally got a little colder and I've heard some
good news coming out of
the Northeast ski areas. Perhaps winter is finally here?
We must be doing something right. We're getting 25-30 new Dogs
joining us each week. That's a lot of new members, dontcha think?
It's high time these new Dogs met some fellow skiers and boarders...
What better place than our Holiday Party?
Bring your friends, drink some beer, spread some holiday cheer!
I'll have Membership cards and Santa will be giving away Diamond Dogs Hats and T-Shirts to people who've been naughty this year...

Hiya!
We have a cancellation for the Snowchaser: December 14-18th to Breckenridge.
They've got great early season snow in Colorado so expect great conditions!
The spot is for a female sharing a room with another female. I can get the spot
with or without airfare if you want to use frequent flier miles.
We're staying at the Beaver Run Resort in Breckenridge. Right in town which is
all lighted up for the christmas holiday. It's going to be an awesome trip!
4 days skiing is $1150 and 3 days is $1100. Without air is $350 cheaper.
If you are interested in going - or just have questions - CALL 917-696-1165.
Thanks!
Andy

Mount Snow is no longer offering the Diamond Dogs Ski Club their group discount as in years before. The sticking point is that we would not provide them with a list the names of all our members. We offered what we thought was a reasonable
compromise of showing our membership card as proof but they did not find that adequate. We certainly enjoy skiing there and sincerely hope that the management at Mount Snow will reconsider their decision next season.
We tried our best to work with them but as a not-for-profit we have little or no power over the corporations that run the skiing industry. But you as an individual can vote with your vacation dollars! We encourage our Diamond Dogs Members to patronize out other resorts in Southern Vermont such as
Bromley, Okemo and Stratton.
A huge storm has hammered the Rockies with snow. It started snowing last night and has been going strong since then. The flakes are wet and the snow has a high moisture content, which makes for lots of it. This will settle for a day or so and then it's due to get cold, thereby sucking all the moisture out and making for the Champagne powder that we all love.
If you plan on going on Snowchaser, you have 1 day left to get onboard - the trip destination will be announced on December 1st only to people who have signed up for it!
Congratulations to Tara Collins! Our 1500th member of the Diamond Dogs Ski Club. Tara gets herself some Diamond Dogs SWAG - a t-shirt and fleece hat - Congrats Tara!

Hope you're having a great summer so far! Just wanted to give you the following announcement.
Russell Crap over at Princeton Ski Shop informed me that they would no longer be honoring any discount for the Metro New York Ski Council, and by proxy our own Ski Club. Not only that, he took it a step further and was rather insulting about the whole thing, saying it was silly for us to assume the deal would carry over from year to year.
Well, I certainly feel silly about this... NOT!
So I'd like to encourage you all who may or may not be in the market to get some gear this fall to patronize the shops that actually respect their clientele.
Shops that offer discounts and are not rude to us include:
10% off everything in the store (except sale items) & services all year. Contact: Bill or Paul, owners.
Panda Ski Shop 9213 5th Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11209, (718) 238-4919.

Sundown Ski & Sport Shop 47 Northern Blvd., Greenvale, NY (516) 621-6668.
10% off non-sale items.
Princeton Ski Shops - WAIT A MINUTE?!?! - NO DISCOUNT FOR YOU!!!
Hey - while we're at it. Please let him know your displeasure! Tell him you won't buy another thing in his stores until he apologizes to the
Diamond Dogs Ski Club. You can email him directly at RussellC@.... He seems to love email!
