Family Skiing

There a some great deals for you take your kids skiing.  The most expensive part is for the Adult who joins them.  I found the least expensive combination to be at A Basin unless you want to night ski at Granby Ranch.  Keystone probably come in as third least expensive combo if you buy early.
AOL Scouts and fifth graders get the best deal ever.  Sixth graders can get the same package for $105.
Pasport Program :Three free days and one in town rental.  You may want to buy $25 goggles.
First Class Program: One half day lesson and one full day equipment rental.  At A Basin we also got another free lift ticket.  Kid rentals are about $25 and helmets are free.  You may want to buy goggles.
$75 Adult Companion Lift Ticket
Kids Free 2 Ski Pass: Kids 6-12 can get a great deal at ABasin, two days of skiing for free.
Molly Hogan Lift and Run: $25 for Adults/ $15 for kids.
Winter park has a magic carpet for $10 per day and Mary Jane has a lift and run for $10 per day.
Four Day Pass at A Basin: adults $169/ kids $109.  If you buy it early season you can get five days for $149.  This is the best deal for adult skiing in CO.

Space Derby 1/11/2018

Our January pack meeting will be an indoor space derby.  All scouts can build a rocket and blast off. 
Please RSVP now in scoutbook for any scouts that wish to participate.  If your plans change we understand.  Please also add a note about any other siblings that wish to participate.  We need this information so that we may order the correct amount of rubber band/ propeller race kits and not over purchase and have to return surplus. For any kids that did not sell $300 in popcorn we ask for a ten dollar activity fee to cover the cost of the kit, awards and track.  See Mr. Killgore with money and to pick up a kit.  We would like to get the kits to you in November so that you and your scout can work on it together over the holidays.  This is a balsa wood kit that does not require the use of any saws, knives or power tools.  Sand paper, elmers glue and tempra paints are about all you need to complete this fun craft.  Lions and Tigers will need some assistance but can do this craft and participate.
