Armand’s Korner—The month of January saw two returning members, which now brings us to 72 members. This is typical for the beginning of a new year since most returning members signed up before the weeklong trip and the weekend trips. Although there is snow up at Tahoe conditions are still not to normal levels. I suspect we need a few more “snow dances”.
Chamonix Ski Week -The Chamonix ski week currently has about 160 participants for this trip. In particular there is an opening for a female roommate, plus a few other spots are also available. If interested, contact Armand : membership@niseiskiclub.org
