Sign up now for the SUMA Ski Trip – January 25th-27th
SUMASA is organizing a ski trip for the weekend of January 25th through the 27th. We have been looking into a number of properties, and found a great one close to Killington Mountain in Vermont. The cost of the trip will be roughly $225, including transportation, lodging, breakfast & dinners, and booze. Lift tickets and rentals will be separate, but no worries we are currently in talks with Killington to receive a group discount on these items. Additionally, if you have a vehicle and are willing to drive up to Killington, this will reduce your costs, and potentially the entire trips costs. Read more to RSVP!
