Who We Are
 
Message from the President

OK, skiing is finished for most of us, unless you want to do glacier skiing or skiing in the real deep south of South America.  So, it is time to get the golf clubs out, open up the shore house, clean up the boat, plant the garden, whatever floats your boat, when you can’t ski.  Kathleen and I spent a good part of last week at the shore, hey 70 degrees in March isn’t good for the snow, but beach time in March…WOW!

A major event is our 50th Anniversary Bash on April 24, 2010 at Places! Bistro, 7-11 PM. See the details on page 8 in this newsletter.  Reservations need to be made by April 15th.   Here is the Bill Bowden challenge: “I joined the MLSC when Trux Broadhead was president and that would have been in the1960-1961 season (1st year of the club). The meetings were held in the basement of the Fire Station in Wayne or Berwyn. The ski trips were to the Poconos where we stayed at the ELK Chalet, owned by one of the members “(Bill).

I guess this makes Bill one of the longest members, and he still is a member.  Can anyone beat that?  It is worth bragging rights, just like the local slopes want to open first and close last.

On May 28th, we will again be having a quad happy hour on the deck of the Desmond.  This will include MLSC, Merck, KOP and Brandywine, the event starts at 6:00 PM and goes until whenever.

When you get this newsletter all of our ski trips for 2009-2010 will have been completed.  I hope everyone had a great time.  It was another great year; no one came home wearing plaster.  We are currently planning our trips for 2010-2011, which we will be announcing at our April meeting.  We may not have prices or dates at the April meeting, but we will have our destinations.   Final details will be available prior to our September meeting.

Factoid of the month:  Peppers with 3 bumps on the bottom are sweeter and better eating.  Peppers with 4 bumps on the bottom are firmer and better for cooking.  This information can only be found in the MLSC Cookbook, see the comment later in this newsletter.
