Here it is! We know you have been waiting all year for this special day, and it has finally arrived! The famous Main Line Ski Club Yankee Swap. This is your chance to search your closet or exchange that "special gift" you received for Christmas and pass it off to another unsuspecting (no, very suspecting) MLSC member. Someone will get a treasure, but they just have to hope they draw a high number, because if they don't, watch out, their treasure will be claimed by someone else! Come out and enjoy the fun. This is one of the most popular meetings we sponsor. Everyone knows there is a potential treasure waiting for them.

Gifts should be valued at $3.00 or more (appraisers will be on hand) and should be wrapped in left over Christmas paper with no ribbons or bows. Candles have been deemed "persona non grata" as they have overwhelmed the swap in past years, and no one likes them. Mark your package for male or female if it is gender specific. Gifts will be accepted up until 8:15 PM, and the swap will begin at 8:25 PM. If you are new to Yankee Swaps, don't worry, just follow the crowd. At the end of the swap the giant free-for-all swap starts where you can trade for someone else's treasure. Hone your negotiating skills! We guarantee you will be hooked for life. Our swap gets bigger every year.

See you on the 12^th for a great time. Questions? Call our Activity Chairperson, Sally Hilderbrand, at 610-489-4718 or  shilderbrand@comcast.net.
