Skiing

Every year, generally in late January \ early February club members take themselves off for a week long skiing extravaganza. Staying in Hotels we eat, drink, party and frolic...and even manage some skiing as well...... Everyone is welcome, from complete beginners to experts - even snowboarders!

For 2009, the AOAC Ski Trip will be to Alpe D'Huez

31st January - 7th February 2009. £685 (incl lift pass!!)

The clocks have gone forward, the evenings are getting longer and at last the first hint that summer is on the way hits us, as we get the first warm spell of the year. This is the time to start planning our summer activities – WRONG!!! This is the time to start planning for our winter activities, because the AOAC 2009 Ski Trip has been booked!!!!

We have managed to get exclusive use of the 4 star catered Chalet L’Escapade in Alpe D’Huez, France. We are flying from Bristol and the resort is excellent for all abilities, from complete novice to Kamikaze mentalist!!! There are only 58 places available in twin rooms (all en suite) and they are expected to sell out very fast (last year it sold out in a couple of weeks!!!). So if you want to secure a place on this most excellent adventure, fill in an application form (click HERE) and send a deposit of £150 (cheques made payable to AOAC) to the address shown on it. Remember, it is first come first served and unlike last year once the places are gone, that’s it, as we are NOT going to book any extra chalets. So don’t delay – book today!!!
