Off The Slopes

Your participation is what makes all the time and effort worth doing, and adds fun for all that attend. Your not being there means we don't have as much fun. There will be sign up sheets for each activity at the monthly meeting. This will both commit you to join and give the coordinator an idea who and how many will attend.

If you haven't joined the FSC Email Group, please go to the 'Yahoo! Group' page for instructions on joining, so that you can receive announcements of events/activities.
