]]> N71@http://fscev.org Swiss Trip Price Changes 2011-11-30T14:33:58+01:00 Posted by Matt Sölden: 7 - 10 October 2011 http://fscev.org/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=47 The 20011/2012 ski season got off to a glorious start for the four Frankfurt Ski Club members who made the trip to Sölden, Austria on October 7, 2011. Who would have known that after weeks of unseasonably warm weather in September, we would have mid - winter conditions on the first weekend in October? The snow came, and how! Sölden reported a total of 70 cm of snow for the season after our weekend there.

   The trip was, as in past years, a combined trip with Tannenbaum Ski Club and Heidelberg Ski Club. A total of 27 people made the journey by bus. We were joined there by a handful of others who drove.

The accommodations in Sölden were outstanding. The Hotel Dominic has very nice rooms, and an excellent spa area. Both the breakfast’s and dinners were quite quite good. On Saturday night, we enjoyed a season kick-off party entertainingly hosted by John Schwartz of Scherer Tours. Much fun, many prizes and free beer were there to be had. The big prize for the night was a new pair of women’s skis and bindings that went to a lucky member of the Tannenbaum Ski Club.

  With over 15 cm’s of fresh snow waiting for us on Saturday morning, the skiing was great! On Sunday morning the road to the resort area did not open until 11:00 AM due to the night’s snowfall. Once we got up to the ski area, the skiing conditions were again fantastic. Being opening weekend, many of the top ski and snow board manufacturers offered free demo’s of their new skis and boards. For us skiers, this was an unbeatable opportunity to try out the new models of powder skis in fresh snow. Everyone who tried new equipment found something that was, if not very good, at least very interesting. I am sure that there will be some ski and board purchases made due to this experience.

   Monday morning brought what was the only bad news of the trip. Because of the continued snowy weather on Sunday night, the road to the ski area would remain closed for the whole day. So, though we all wanted another shot at fresh early season powder, we had no choice other than to pack up, and make an early departure back to Germany. It was a great weekend with a great group of people enjoying some fabulous skiing. Hopefully next year we will get ‘almost’ that much snow and have the chance to do it again.

Sticker Slogan Competition http://fscev.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=66 Hope you are all feeling a little creative. We're are in the process of producing a sticker to promote wearing helmets whilst doing what we love to do – skiing and snowboarding!

Please keep it short and sweet as the sticker is only a 5 cm square.
You can send your ideas directly to or leave them on the forum or facebook wall.
The winning slogan will be produced as stickers (to be distributed amongst members, friends and colleges) and the winning person will be presented with their slogan as a T-shirt.

Here are some ideas what we have so far:
I GOTTA POT!
BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY!
DON'T BE A CRACK HEAD - WEAR A HELMET
BRAIN SAFE
PUT YOUR EGG IN A BASKET
INCASE YOU'RE A HEAD BANGER
SKID-LIDS ARE COOL
I LOVE HELMUT
HELMUT IS COOL

Hope you get the idea.

You can enter as many times as you want. The final slogan deadline is 8th Feb 2011

Get your heads in gear
