Trip Sign-Up: HERE IT IS! Your chance to sign-up for your favorite SCSC ski trip(s) for 2006-2007. The sign-up form is in this issue of the SITZMARKE, so copy it or clip it out and follow the instructions below. See www.spacecityskiclub.org to sign up online and pay by credit card. Then, wait for the trip TC to notify you if you are on the trip or come to the September meeting to verify your registration, sign the Trip Release Form and pick up additional information the TC will have for you.

1. Trip sign-up begins on Monday, August 14. As with last year, the sign-up does not end in a few weeks and start up again at the September meeting. Instead, it just begins. We are also continuing to take sign ups either through the mail or give your form and money directly to the TC at an SCSC event OR signup online and pay by credit card.. However, the form and money cannot be received prior to that date. Any received prior to that date will be returned. Note that this is not the postmark, but when the form and money is received.
2. You must be a current member in good standing to be added to a trip. Note that memberships are approved at the monthly Executive Committee meeting. Send in your membership by the first of the month for it to be considered at the meeting. After that, you will have to wait until the next month. Your 2006-2007 membership number should be shown on the mailing label of the SITZMARKE. Call your VP of Membership, Jessica Halter, if you have questions.
3. You may sign-up yourself and one other SCSC member per trip (plus children for Family Optional trips) (see by-law 2.8.A.)
4. In the registration envelope include the trip registration form and your deposit. The deposit for the Neustift trip is $300 per participant. The deposit on all other trips is $150 per participant. Checks are to be made payable to “SCSC” and should have your membership number and the TRIP NAME listed on the check.
5. Mail your registration to the TC’s Address on the Form for the trip on which you wish to participate. TC’s names are listed for all trips. For information, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses are listed in this SITZMARKE and on the Trip Registration Form. If your registration is mailed or given to anyone other than the TC, it will be returned to you and you will not be registered for the trip.
6. If the registration meets the above guidelines, names will be added to each trip’s Participant List in the order received. If a trip’s participant roster is full, additional registrations received will be added to a waitlist in the order received. The TC will hold deposit checks for waitlisted members until a space becomes available on the trip. For the participants that are on trips, the checks will be deposited immediately.
7. These procedures apply to ALL members (except the trip’s TC and ATC) and all Trip Participants are subject to SCSC Standing Rules, Policies and Procedures.
8. SCSC is not responsible for any problems with the U.S. Postal Service or the internet, including delayed delivery or lost mail.
9. Information shown on the Trip Schedule is subject to change. Contact the TC or ATC for up-to-date information.
10. Any registrations received, which do not meet the above qualifications, may be returned to the sender. Land Packages: The Executive Committee has approved Land Packages on this year’s. On the trips which there are a limited number of land packages available, if all are filled, you will be given the option of being on a “Land Wait List” or switching to a full package.

Hello everyone! I am thrilled to be your new VP of Programs for SCSC and it’s really exciting to be putting together another awesome year of non-ski activities for our membership! Your suggestions and feedback have been noted and are being incorporated into this year’s activities. Thanks to Ellen Eastham, Cindy Moore and some of our “seasoned” members, there are already many exciting events in the works, some of which are noted below!
