Senior & Women's Camps - Evaluating Interest

[Ihamilton]

Early to mid January would work best for us. We will also do the November camps.

My wife really wants to do a camp next year. Im not sure if she would want to do a womens specific camp with only women instructors, but i will ask her. Shes a bit funny, in that she generally prefers men as personal trainers, massage, etc...maybe i should be worried... Ill ask her though.

Im hoping either way, we can get her to a camp. It will be a challenge and a major commitment as we have a 3 yr old, and i cant afford to take off a week just to keep my child for the wife to ski. But im hoping we can work it out.

Ed: she said she would be down with a women's camp.

I'm glad to see more discussion here.


dbillo... the goal of offering these sessions isn't to limit a camp to certain folks (they may run concurrently with another session); rather, it's to see if a new camp focus appeals to skiers who are not currently attending our camps. We vary our camp offerings from time to time in order to meet the desires of our customers.
The Green/Blue camp does not sell out as quickly as some of our earlier sessions. If you are hoping to attend with a group of four, you should be able to enroll into late summer/early autumn.

Bonz... I take it that "down with" means that your wife does not want to attend a women's camp?? Take a look when our camp schedule goes online in early May and see if you can find a session that works for all the family constraints.

Diana: you need to get out of that log cabin and get to the big city. "Down with" would be urban for "I'm good with that". Could be derived from "put me down for", but who knows?

English is a pretty good language, why not use it.

English is a pretty good language, why not use it.

Well, in Europe there are some opinions that English can be improved...

"The European Union commissioners have announced that agreement has
been reached to adopt English as the preferred language for European
communications, rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British government conceded that
English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a
five-year phased plan for what will be known as EuroEnglish (Euro for
short).

In the first year, "s" will be used instead of the soft "c".
Sertainly, sivil servants will resieve this news with joy. Also, the
hard "c" will be replaced with "k". Not only will this klear up
konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the
troublesome "ph" will be replaced by "f". This will make words like
"fotograf" 20 per sent shorter.

In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be
expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are
possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters,
which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil
agre that the horible mes of silent "e"s in the languag is
disgrasful, and they would go.

By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing
"th" by z" and "w" by " v".

During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords
kontaining "ou", and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer
kombinations of leters.

After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be
no mor trubls or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand
ech ozer.

Ze drem vil finali kum tru."

Thanks for all the input. We ended up with a few new camps on our schedule, but neither a senior or a womens session. I think that we'll be able to meet the needs of a lot of new as well as return campers with the coming season's offerings...
