Snow update

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

Despite the recent snowfall unfortunately conditions are not good enough to open on Wednesday - the snow cover is rather poor and wet and looks like it will deteriorate overnight. They have fared a bit better further west and Yad Moss plan to open tomorrow and Raise has very good cover and are definitely planning to open. Our time will come!

Snow update and AGM report

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

We have had several cm of snow in Weardale and it was looking reasonably promising at one stage but sadly the snow has been replaced by rain and is rapidly dwindling and very heavy so there is no prospect of skiing today sadly.

I am away for a week or so so there will be no emails from me but please look at the website, facebook or ring the answerphone if there is the possibility of skiing and they will be updated.

The AGM was a great success with about 50 members and 2 fabulous presentations by Anto Baird and Kevin Moore. Thanks to all who turned up and to Anto and Kevin for the interesting talks/films/slide shows.

WSC AGM Monday 7th November

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

A final reminder that we are holding the Weardale Ski Club AGM on Monday 7th November at The Honest Lawyer, Croxdale, Durham commencing at 8pm. All are welcome and please note that we will be trialling using the downstairs room this year which will make it less formal and also enable easier access to the bar!

We hope to keep the business element brief and leave more time for the social side which includes films from Anto Baird and Kevin Moore covering "a sailing and skiing trip to South Georgia" and "back country skiing in Japan".

We are also encouraging members to bring along old items of ski/board kit and clothing that they no longer want with the view to selling or swapping them.

Hopefully will see many of you there on Monday.

Snow is forecast this weekend and we are all ready for it though it sounds likely to be very thin, wet and windy but at least it is a start. Don't build up your hopes for any skiing this weekend.
