Kris’ Kolumn By Kris president@longbeachskiclub.org

Mammoth is Open for Skiing AND Trail Biking ☺ Planning for Feb 29, 2020 in Cervinia, Italy & the Matterhorn?

Or, for 2019-20 Season Club Condos? Well, sports fans, summer is upon us! And, skiing at Mammoth continues in grand style with six lifts and twenty-seven trails open as of June 21st. Summer is shaping up to be a relaxing or invigorating time, depending on your perspective, with wine tasting, sailing (if you won the silent auction), BBQs at favorite venues (if you’re in town), bicycling/blading and kayaking/stand up paddle (if you’d like to get into shape). Do you see that shiny, gold award? I’m proud to announce that at the recent Far West Ski Association 87th Annual Convention at Indian Wells, which Eric, Nia, Mark and Craig served as our delegates, Long Beach Ski Club won two Outstanding awards! The 2018-2019 1st Place Novice Communications Award – Outstanding Club, with Yours Truly as President. Our Ski Breeze newsletter also won 1st Prize Novice - Wentworth Outstanding Publication with Catherine Singer as Editor. I can’t think of a better way to finish my term. Check out the awards on page 11. My past seven years, as president of LBSC have seen quite a few talented and energized people serving on your board. With this crew of volunteers, I have enjoyed leading our club into the 21st Century! We have graduated to a top-notch club whose membership has steadily grown from about 40 to nearly 100. Our website and newsletter has benefitted from the outstanding patronages of David Pattison, Ying Liu, Cindy Carter, Dana Hart, and, of course, Catherine Singer – communications that are so important in putting us on the map! Leading us around the Western US and Europe, Shep and Mark Malan have shown us the quintessential aspects of Week Long Ski Trips. Who can forget Cherri Greg’s strength in leading us along appropriate accounting paths, and her hubby, Ken, a great buddy in raffling or auctioning wines, gift certificates, and sailing afternoons to the highest bidders? Mike Zullo has initiated biweekly paddling and biking through the summer, as well as making our club condos affordable and desired. Craig Gibson continues to pedal his special brand of enticement to bring in more and more members, along with our website and Meetup. (continued on page 11)

Week Trips with Mark Malan Long Beach Ski Club's Cervinia Italy 2020 Trip (with optional

extension)

We’re going to SKI the Matterhorn. The Club Med in Cervinia, Italy will be our home base. All food, beverages, and lift tickets are included. They even have nightly entertainment and offer some ski lessons at no cost. This will be real fun. We have 17 of our 35 spaces reserved. YOU can join with a $500 reservation deposit.

Check this out! The optional five-day tour of Northern Italy with the Club will be staying at 4-star hotels. Please go on line to visit these sites:

www.miramaresestrilevante.com We’ll be here three nights and tour Cinque Terre and do some wine tasting at a local winery.

www.hotelvillacappugi.com We’ll tour a Chianti vineyard in Tuscany on one day and shop Florence on the next.

Flights are in/out of LAX on Swiss Air and Lufthansa depending on traveling for ski week or if the five-day extension is selected. The extension is for three nights in Sestri Levante, where we will take a quick train ride to Cinque Terre and other activities during two full days before going to Pistoia for two nights. From Pistoia, we will visit Tuscany and Florence. There will be multiple wine tastings, as this region is internationally known for its wine and is as picturesque as anywhere in Italy.

The extension is available for only 20 people. Our coach seats 36 people, so there is room for luggage. Skis fly free on Swissair and cost $250 on Lufthansa, so many will find renting new skis cheaper and easier than carry skis. We have 15 rooms with two beds and 5 for single supplement in Cervinia at Club Med. It is hard on international trips to increase or decrease the number of participants so, you need to send in your Reservation Request NOW. weektrips@longbeachskiclub.org

We will be setting up the club's web site for payments once the original group of skiers is selected. Initial deposits need to be paid by check and accompanied with the sign-up paperwork attached to this newsletter filled out. We only have a limited amount of each option to join the trip. PLEASE specify if you have a roommate or if you are in need of one. Same gender room selections can be made by trip chairman. Trip insurance will be added at the cost of 6.5% to everyone's balance. We don't want anyone to lose their money if travel must be cancelled. Insurance is provided by SKI.com.

Get Loose with Lance - Social By Lance Liebl social@longbeachskiclub.org

On June 15th, we had our wine tasting event on the water. Ten hardy sailors from the Long Beach Ski Club embarked onto a super large gondola to drink wine and share appetizers. The seas were calm and no one got sea sick. The gondoliers polled us through the Naples canals while we admired the homes of the rich and famous. Mostly rich. It was nice to have a mixture of new and old members on this excursion.

On July 13th, we will have our first annual barbecue at the home of club members Lisa and Brian Maloney. On August 17th, we will have our second and last barbecue of the year at Casa Lopez (David Lopez’s home.) These two summer events have always been the highlights of our summer socials. The club always provides plenty of fresh roasted corn and cold watermelon. Club members will bring their own entrees to grill and appetizers to share. There will be lawn games at Casa Lopez. Watch for flyers for details.

I want to wish everyone to have a safe and fun Fourth of July.

Kris’ Kolumn Continued… I hope that Eric Hartman has found likeminded and creative people to develop a new vision for racing at Mammoth. Quite a number of people have served as Members-at-Large, offering unique perspectives and volunteering to Chair several efforts, including Rose Molina, who has found inexpensive regalia for us, and Eric’s wife, Nia, who is starting a new Technology Committee to assist our club in maintaining our electronic communications. It takes only a few good sports, so please ask Nia how you can help! Another recent member, Tan Nyugen, is the latest addition to your board with energy and ideas that are already moving us forward. During the past seven years, I have relied heavily on counsel from Don Crawford, advice from everyone, and Lance Liebl for more than this. In addition to putting together all the social activities for these seven years (and how many before??), Lance has truly been a best friend to most of us – the glue and clamps that has held us together so tightly and the kind words and thoughtful suggestions that are necessary for any organization to flourish. Thank you, Lance! It is not possible to name and thank everyone who has served on the Board during my tenure, but I’d like to simply mention the contributions of Sarah Pool, Roberto Tovar, Letty Gonzales, and Luis Alonzo. Many thanks to everyone who has served on your ski club board. I’ll be leaving this great Club in the very capable hands of Barbara Nelson, whose talent you will soon know to be second to none. Barbara has been an incredible stalwart for this club, and merits every accolade she has received. I hope you will make her feel welcome once again in the President’s chair and feel inclined to volunteer an hour here or there for Your Club under her leadership.
