Pat's Peak Ski Outing

Every year Pat's Peak in Henniker, New Hampshire hosts a Scout Weekend for scouts from all around the region. Pack 95 has participated in this several times in the past and the scouts (and parents and siblings!) have always had a great time. The scout weekend is a lot of fun and a great value. Usually we participate in the "POP" program, which includes rental ski/snowboard, lift ticket from 3-10 PM, and snowtubing from 5-10 PM - all for a very reasonable price. Other options are available as well, including that of a sleepover.

Organizing this event probably requires about 3 hours of work and involves:

• Putting the event on the pack calendar

• Submitting contact info to Pat's Peak (via online form) and receiving forms in mail

• Promoting trip to pack via e-mail

• Gathering list of attendees and their choices (POP vs. other option, rental, meals, etc.) early enough to compile the data before the Pat's Peak deadline

• Gathering checks from families

• Completing Group Trip Planner Form (and other forms) and return to Pat's Peak

• Sending details (directions, times, etc.) to attendees

• Arriving at Pat's Peak a bit early to get lift tickets

• Meeting attendees and passing out tickets

• Taking a group photo

And as a bonus for organizing this event, the organizer generally gets a free lift ticket from Pat's Peak!
