July 29 -Trenton Thunder Game (rescheduled)

Our 40th Year

Wayne C. MacMath

President

Hope everyone is enjoying the cooler tem-peratures we are having this summer. Great for golf…hope your game is im-proving. My handicap is down to 30.

Guess you are wondering why the news-letter had been slow to emerge. It has taken me this long to settle down from our 40th Anniversary Party. WHAT A NIGHT! Hope everyone enjoyed the night. That was by far the best party ever staged by the Bucks Mount Ski & Snow-board Club. What an effort! My personal thanks to John and Patti Lewin for shopping and organizing the decorating of the hall. It was awesome. People were, “like, WOW,” when they walked into the room. There were 40th Anniversary banners from the ceiling, plus sparkly, dangling things that were a challenge to suspend. Lots of balloons and matching 40th Anniversary table clothes, plates, etc. Thanks so much! The food as usual, was outstanding. Many people made and brought salads, veggies and desserts. This was completed with tasty burgers, hot dogs, and sausage. Our two cooks, Rick Seibel and Paul Hor-watt, not only contributed their expertise but transported their personal grills from home. We heard Paul told Kathy he had to get a new grill now, because the ski club needed it. Tables, the length of one wall, were con-tinuous with pictures people brought. Old and not-so-old photos and albums prompted many stories. Some members from the past that we were thrilled to have join us were; Ed Walton, Crash King, and Jeanie and Bill Sosna. Their stories from

Upcoming Events

Meetings resume September 16

the past brought laughs from the crowd. Our 80th reunion is tentatively sched-uled for March 10th, 2049. Hope to see you there! Recently 44 baseball fans attended the Trenton Thunder – Reading Phillies game. Unfortunately, we really got Thunder, Rain and Lightning. This pelted us on and off for 2 hours finally forcing cancellation of the game. How-ever… we were able to complete the eating portion of our ticket. You know, “No Meeting without Eating.” We proved, once again, rain does not keep the Bucks Mount Ski Club from skiing or eating. Thanks Clare for taking care of us and rescheduling for Wednesday, the 29th of July. Call Clare for informa-tion, even if you did not attend that night and want to go. It might be possi-ble, 215-860-5244. This past season was somewhat suc-cessful; however, we did notice that the economic downturn had a definite ef-fect on our club. We scaled back some, with only, one day trip, three weekend trips, one out West trip and no trip to France. Hopefully next year things will start to recover. I filled out all neces-sary paper work and sent it to Washing-ton, but we were denied any stimulus money. Therefore: No new jobs will be created this ski season. The Presi-dent, and DML, is seeking to obtain some loans from local banks to help

pay for all the food and alcohol we con-sume. It seems we have no shovel ready projects. This coming Christmas-New Year vaca-tion we are returning to one of our favor-ite places – UTAH. We will be staying in Park City and also choosing skiing at the Canyons, Snowbird, Powder Moun-tain and Snow Basin. We are staying at the same condos we used three years ago, great accommodations. Specially planned, this trip includes non-stop direct flights from Philadelphia to Salt Lake. If our flight leaves a little late, it will not be a problem! Call us now if you are inter-ested. We are hoping to visit some different ski areas for weekend trips but nothing has been confirmed. We are doing our best to keep prices reasonable. Each year our officers do an unbelievable job making sure everything runs smoothly. In the U.S. we have a two party system, but in the ski club we have a one party system and the party lasts all year long. Seriously, elections were held on June 31st and thousands of ballots were cast (200 members). After a while I tired of counting so I had Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declare enough votes were counted and the same slate of candidates as last year were reelected. What a coun-try! Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing you at our first meeting on Wednesday, September 16th. There will be another newsletter in September.

2009 Trip Recap

OKEMO

Thirty-two traveled by bus for this trip to the beautifully decorated Hartness House. Our first day at Okemo was chilly with hardpack conditions. The next day we were blessed with 6 inches of new snow and we even were able to explore several new, long gladed trails.

STEAMBOAT

Steamboat was a great trip to start our year. Thirty of us traveled to Hayden for the Christmas-New Year break. Although we arrived late and without much of our luggage we did manage to get into Hayden after the second attempt from Salt Lake. (We actually turned around the first time because of too much snow and poor visi-bility.) Delta gave us vouchers and we rented clothing, helmets, skis, and what-ever we needed. Not a day of skiing was missed. Thanks to Lauren and Mike for arranging food and drink for our pizza welcome party. We might have missed some of our equipment but we did not miss a meal!

Because of the snowstorm before we ar-rived, conditions were fantastic! We had a New Year’s Eve party in the condo, com-plete with party food, decorations and Jello-shots. Thanks Rachel, Lauren, Mike and Mike.

We had some first time members on this trip and I sincerely hope they enjoyed themselves.

ELK MOU'TAI'

Rita orchestrated her usual fun day in the mountains of Pennsylvania. Forty people got up early enough to make the bus, enjoy Danish and OJ and go back to sleep until they reached the parking lot at Elk Moun-tain. They were treated to the best conditions ever and no surprise changes of weather! On the way home they laughed and drank wine, watching Mama Mia on the bus monitors.

Thanks, Rita, for a job well done.

SU'DAY RIVER—WILDCAT

Fifty was the final total on this trip, with a few drive-ups meeting us at the Town and Country. This year was a tough one for us even though it was pretty good season over all in New England. This time it rained and froze right before we were due to arrive. But Bucks Mount skiers and riders are hardy and did what it took to have a great time in spite of the conditions. We spent two days at Sunday River and one at Wildcat. The first day we could only ride the lower lifts because conditions were too dangerous at the top. The cold wind and hard surfaces kept the up-per lifts closed until 2:00pm. Need-less to say the bar was crowded. The next day improved some but you can’t grind-up all the ice in one night. The final day at Wildcat was good in the morning because of grooming. Views of Mt. Washington were stun-ning.

Because of no wind, beautiful weather, and marginal conditions on the mountain, Wildcat decided to run their Zip Line (the only one on the East Coast). For $10 with your lift ticket, you could zip from the top of one of the lifts to the parking lot. Several parent and teenage children pairs and a few adventurous adults snapped up the opportunity and loved it. They had a large Bucks Mount cheering section on the deck outside the bar at the base lodge.

KILLI'GTO'

Thirty-two hardy skiers trudged around Killington. Maureen tried but was overcome by a strange virus. The DML was in early both days. One skier who is new to the sport took lessons but must have been black and blue, not to mention sore. The price of having a girl friend who is a skier. Pasha, are you all right? Anyway we did our best to have fun.

Ski Tuning

If you want your skis tuned to a racer’s edge perfection, call Bill Rees or Joe Huttemann. Bill has way too much time on his hands these days. He sharpened my skis before a Breckenridge trip and the moguls melted under my feet. Bill filled all the craters on my bottoms, and fin-ished with wax so slick I could carve effortlessly. They do a great job at a great price. Call for further info, you won’t be sorry. Bill 215-322-4788 or Joe 215-757-2693.

2010 Ski Trips

Our trip director, Maureen, has a dif-ficult job trying to meet everyone’s need. Bear with us during these diffi-cult economic times. The prices have risen substantially in the last year and a half. It is not easy to price the trips to fit everyone’s pocketbook. She looks for good skiing, nice lodges and meals but does her best to keep it affordable. Thanks, Maureen. We the officers of the Bucks Mount Ski and Snowboard Club look for-ward to serving you this year. You are a wonderful group of people and we have developed many great friendships through the club. Thank you for allowing us to run the club.

Lisa Waltz asked if Bud wet the bed.

He replied “It depends!”

Boy Meets Girl

from the He-and-She Stick to the gondola, lift technology has shaped romance on the way

uphill.

Riding a ski lift, or waiting in line to board it, may have inspired as many marriages and relationships over the past 70 years as ever originated at an après bar. Cu-pid’s ski endeavors, though, have-n’t been without bumps. The rope tow, for instance, was less an op-portunity to meet Miss Beautiful than come to her rescue after the rope hurled her onto the snow.

The T-bar, as seen on a 1950 cover of Love Magazine, was a far superior conveyance for sparking romance. So effective was the T-bar at matchmaking that it came to be known as the He-and-She Stick. For one thing, the couple had to coordinate their hands, backsides, and skis for a steady ride up the track - perhaps, who knows acting as a nifty indicator of physical compatibility - or at

least providing a good excuse to hold on tight.

The He-and-She Stick might even have helped predict the height of offspring should ro-mance lead to marriage. When riding a T-bar, the trick was to select an uphill companion whose posterior was approxi-mately at the same level as yours. The notoriously short Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the sex thera-pist, who skied at Belleayre in New York’s Catskill Mountains, was in the liftline one day seek-ing a suitable seat mate. A shor-tish man appeared, and they rode up smoothly together. He later became Dr. Ruth’s husband. The arrival of the chairlift just before World War II made uphill travel faster and more comfort-able, but its single seat did noth-ing to promote on-hill romance. Mercifully, the two-seater be-came standard in the 1950s. Ro-meo and Juliet could now soar upward together – talking, laughing, and yes, even ex-changing the occasional smooch. Overnight, the double chair made “single!” a loaded liftline exclamation. One can only speculate about the hormonal surge experienced by the first man to hear that seductive shout from the lips of the blonde in the Bogner stretch pants at the head of the line.

The monopoly of the twin love-seat, regrettably, lasted only until the 1960s. Engineers, indifferent to its romantic value, focused with cold efficiency on transporting more passengers uphill. With the arrival of triple chairs, quads, and even six-seaters, the potential for mid-air romance vanished. Multi-seat encounters generated all the heat of drawing-room conversa-tions.

The gondola, when it first came into wide use about 40 years ago, presented a challenge to skiers keen on finding an après date, though when not in heavy use, it can - it’s been told - become the equivalent of a cheap motel room. Meanwhile, if the past is prologue, the future of boy-meets-girl on the lifts will keep evolving.

John Fry is the author of The Story of Modern Skiing, about the changes that revolutionized the

sport after World War II.

Party Recap Thanks to the Social Committee for all the planning this past season. Barbara, Judy, Ellen, Noreen, and Evelyn co-ordinated all the menus for our meetings. Thanks to those of you who contributed. Special thanks to Karl, Wayne, and Chuck & Evi for extra help. We know for sure that our exceptional attendance is due to the “No meeting without eating” policy. We have had admissions that some people decide which meetings to attend by the choice of food being pre-sented that night. Don’t worry. We know that it is also the awesome people who are going to be at that meeting to share a drink and some ski plans with you.

Michael Mattie was the reigning champion at the ping pong table at the Mountain Inn.

While we were practicing our turns at Sugarbush, Bud Cartwright was practicing his turns (going up the hill of the Holiday Inn’s driveway)!

Back in the day when hats were OK, featured were 4 photos of hats: keeping an eye on Jeff Gold, Mi-chael “Fish Head”,Mattie, Raul “Pierre” Valcarcel, and haute cou-ture Ellen Chauncey.

Larry Ortmann thought some of his fellow skiers found the recent trip to Sugarbush a little too frosty on their toes. He felt really bad since he was toasty comfortable in his Boot Gloves. So in an effort to eliminate another excuse on which some mem-bers rely when justifying their early entry to the lodge or lounge, he of-fered the following Internet address so that they too may laugh at the cold (for about $30). http://www.snowshack.com/
