Hello to everyone who enjoys the lifestyles and adventures of the Chattanooga Ski Club, and to anyone who is thinking of joining us in the future.

As fall approaches, ski news always picks up. A new ski area development is proposed for the backside of the same mountain as Deer Valley. It would be called Mayflower Mountain Resort. Many details remain up in the air, but part of the funding would come from the U.S. military, with some subsidized hotel rooms exclusively for military personnel. Possible connections with Deer Valley are also under consideration. So, watch for news on that!

Meanwhile, our club still has a lot of activities going on for the rest of the summer and fall, so check our website out and read any upcoming emails.

I would like to thank Barb and Jan and all the others who helped make the SUP party a success. We had great turnout and the weather was perfect -- shade trees and light wind made it nice out there. Nick from Rock/Creek brought lots of products for us to play  on. If you get a chance, stop by the Amnicola Highway location and check out their products. Be sure to say you're with the Chattanooga Ski Club for a discount.

I hope to announce that someone from Alpine Ski Shop from Knoxville will be attending our September or October membership meeting. It should be informative for us skiers! I will keep you posted once arrangements are made.

See you at the next meeting,

Mike
