BOC<\/span> gets rich. It\u2019s even legal!<\/p>\n-Pardo: (Disclaimer: not entirely serious\u2026) $6,000 snow cannon for Mount David (It\u2019ll come out of the E Room budget, no need to vote)<\/p>\n
-Kristen wants $350 for used ice climbing boots from IME.<\/p>\n
Trips:<\/p>\n
-Chris is going to the Banff Mountain Film Fest on the 8th. You can buy tix online or in Lane Hall. Maybe there will be a van.<\/p>\n
-Alex Weissman: *sets ominous scene* *light flickers* Pat and Alex appear\u2026 The canvas tent is coming out on Saturday. 20 people fit in the tent (allegedly). They will be in the middle of a lake somewhere for the night. Apparently the tent can be 90 degrees without the ice melting (It\u2019s science, don\u2019t question it). There will be a lot of good food.<\/p>\n
-Alex Moskovitz is going skiing tomorrow right around 11 at Sunday River. He has to figure out how to put the spiffy new rack on first.<\/p>\n
-Trip #2: van to the \u2018Loaf this weekend.<\/p>\n
-Emmett is going to Sugarloaf on Saturday. He has 2 spots. Leaving at 7. If you\u2019re a stinky, knee dropping tele skier, you should go. Granola will not be provided for this trip.<\/p>\n
-Nate: cold, snowy climbing adventure on Saturday.<\/p>\n
-Grace: Skiing on Friday leaving early. Holler if you want a spot.<\/p>\n
-I\u2019m also skiing on Friday. Same deal.<\/p>\n
-Josh went curling. It\u2019s free on Sunday if it\u2019s your first time. Talk to Josh for info.<\/p>\n
-The trip to the \u2018drome got cancelled. We\u2019ll probably go on friday.<\/p>\n
Stories:<\/p>\n
-Noel: He hit up The D during Juno in his snow kayak (Not quite deep enough to roll). It\u2019s really dangerous, you should try it.<\/p>\n
-Chris skied behind Noel. The Skill and Grill jump was revived.<\/p>\n
-Matt (almost a council member) went to Sunday River yesterday. Compared to Maryland the pow here is pretty good. Thorn is so jaded he said it didn\u2019t even make his top 20 days. Everyone\u2019s classes got cancelled, so no one had to skip class. The drive home was adventurous. We couldn\u2019t really see anything between Home Depot and Bates. Driving was a team effort. Heads out the window and all. Matt held his breath in the back while I tried to differentiate between the right side of the road and oncoming plow trucks in the whiteout.<\/p>\n
-Abby (Welcome to the council): Slept outside in a snowstorm like this one a little kid. Nice first winter camping experience.<\/p>\n
-Pardo: Same shit different day. Sick nighttime lines were shredded down The D.<\/p>\n
-Emmett was at Jay Peak for New Years with some family and friends. They had a sledding race on a freshly groomed ski trail. They hit a fence and got 2nd place. Apparently it was the hardest he\u2019s ever hit a fence.<\/p>\n
-Grace used to have an awesome snow suit kinda like the one from a Christmas Story. Her ad got her all suited up and then she told him she had to pee. He got grumpy about it and she wet her pants to spite him.<\/p>\n
-Jane was working for a landscaping company for the irrigation services dept. They were putting a fountain into the middle of a pond. As soon as they got to the jobsite, she too had to pee. She finally got the chance to pee in the woods. She slipped in the process and her coworkers thought she peed herself. (Unfortunately I\u2019m at a loss for an irrigation services pun)<\/p>\n
-Justin: First time pumping gas at a gas dock. There was a big fire making its way towards the dock. He ran right into his boss with the fire extinguisher and still got a bonus at the end of the summer.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s all.\u00a0 Enjoy the snow,<\/p>\n
