February President's Letter

Hello Four Winders

This winter in Chicago feels like spring without sun.   Hard to believe but 50 year ago Chicago had it's biggest snow fall in history.  I say bring on the SNOW in February!  We got our skis, boards, boots and gear ready for it.

 When Woodstock Willie see's his shadow on Thursday February 2nd (Ground Hog Day), then we'll have at least 6 more weeks of winter.   No worries that we don't get any snow here in February and March,  Four Winds  has great trips planned for "Up North" and West where there is plenty of fresh powder to ride the slopes.    Openings are available for all the trips. 

 

First up, we'll be driving up to our favorite spot's in Michigan for fresh powder, Boyne Highlands & Nubs Nob on

February 10th - 12th.  Staying at Oak Park Lodge in Boyne Falls MI. which accommodates 40 people.   The lodge is very comfortable and only minutes away from Boyne Mountain which also has great slopes,  and Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark for the entire family to enjoy.  Don't forget you can use those free lift tickets you received last fall at Chicago Ski Show at any of the Boyne resorts.   See our website for all the details on this trip.  Openings still available.

 

Next up, we'll be heading up to Cascade Mountain on March 3rd -5th  Staying at the Wisconsin Dells Wilderness Condo's.    Lots of fun activities in this package.   2 nights lodging,  2-day lift tickets at Cascade, waterpark passes, continental breakfasts.     See trips on out website for more details.

 

In mid-March, we'll be joining CMSC (Chicago Metropolitan Ski Council) on it's

 2017 Winter Carnival at Ski Brule MI. on March 10th -17th.  

A great package for the entire family to enjoy all weekend.  Includes bus transportation, 2 nights lodging,

2-day lift tickets, CMCS Races,  2-Brule Brunches, homestead BBQ, beer parties, costume contest and much more.    Don't miss this super fun weekend.  Please visit our website for more information and registration. 

 

Looking for more?   Picturesque mountains with the best of the best powder to ride and baby blue skies with warmer weather.    We have a great deal to ski & ride out West. 

Come join us at  CMCS 2017 Spring Fling - April 1st through 6th in Aspen CO.

 So be sure to watch for the Four Winds E-Blasts with information about each upcoming event throughout the month.

 

February may be a short month, but Four Winds Ski, Ride and Socialize has lots of fun trips and social events to accommodate your family during  this winter.

Everyone THINK SNOW and enjoy the weather.   I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event in the near future.
