I ski, you ski, we all ski! (or snowboard)

Hello All!

Plan A: we go skiing! Read below and tell me which you option you're going to take so we can plan this baby. Email (atn26@drexel.edu) or facebook me. ASAP (please).

If weather does not permit, we'll think of a Plan B.

FYI, Youth is ages 7-18

Currently, I’m thinking about leaving around 9am to arrive at Blue Mountain by 11:30am (latest) so we can sort out all the rentals and maybe have some fun on the bunny slopes before going out to the mountain from 12:30pm to 5pm. We’ll leave a little after 5pm and head back for dinner before going our own ways.

Suggestions:

1. If you have skies/snowboard and boots:

a. Youth – buy the all day pass for $38

b. Adult – buy the afternoon pass for $47

2. If you don’t have skies/snowboard and boots:

a. Youth – buy the afternoon pass for $38 and day rental package for $33 (total: $71)

b. Adult – buy the afternoon pass for $47 and day rental package for $33 (total: $80)

3. If you don’t have skies/snowboard and boots and want lessons:

a. Youth – buy the $85 package*

b. Adult – buy the $90 package*

4. If you don’t have skies/snowboard and boots and want beginner lessons: (not recommended)

a. Youth – buy the $50 package and afternoon pass for $38 (total: $88)

b. Adult – buy the $55 package and the afternoon pass for $47 (total: $102)

Meeting(s)

Hello All,

It's been a while since we have an updated post here on our blog, but

I'd like to get back to it again.

As I have mentioned, our next meetings will be on fridays, at apprx 6 at our members' house

please be there on time as i do not want the host or their family member to open the door for each person that is late, if you need a ride to the destination, let a driver know and ask them. I am certain there will be at least one driver who will be willing to drive you to and from.

After the meeting i asked that everyone clean up(not the house) the area we use, eat ebfore you come, focus and be alert, its 6pm, its late enough to be awake and early to sleep...

For the host, if possible if we are in your house, I ask that you will not get to comfy and your area, as i know how that feel when I am at home laying on the couch or running up and down the stairs.

Meetings will be an hour, so i want to get to the point, its no time for "what's your weekend plans"...you can do that after or if you come early, feel free, but not during

i will post here often, and maybe assign someone to post on facebook/email/call members about meetings/events.

If there any question, do ask me

Lastly, a big concern Co Hoa brought up to me is, make sure everyone let their parents know whats going on...that is why i will print out a calender givign you and/or your parents hard copy of what we are doing and where we will be at.

ooOH*Meeting this week October 23rd 2009 will be at Nick and Eric's house*

Upcoming Events (August)

August 9 - Di Hoa's BBQ

You have been invited to Di Hoa's/Phu's/Nhi's house this Sunday, August 9, 2009, after mass, for a BBQ. As you know, Di Hoa is an excellent cook and you won't want to miss out on this party! Unfortunately, An and Linh will be away in Canada (again!?) but nonetheless, you should be able to have fun if you try very hard. What am I saying? You always have fun when we're gone! No exception here. Make sure you show up and eat enough for Linh and me, okay?!

August 15 - An's Farewell Party

Mommy is going away to Hong Kong for four months! Come to my house and spend my last Saturday (August 15, from 6pm-11pm) in America for a while! It's pot luck since my parents aren't available to cook, so just comment here or on Facebook (preferably Facebook) and let me know what you're planning to bring! Since there will be a lot of people and ideally everyone will bring something, you don't have to make anything big. Unless you want to =D

Bryan, I expect something awesome from you! =D

Camping Trip info!

Some more update on the camping trip....I've been running around finding stuff for the camping trip and i thought, well, you guys should be running around finding stuff too!!!!! so here's a nice little list of what you should bring! here's a link

http://www.thecampingsource.com/The%20Big%20List.htm

turns out we have a shortage of tents!!!! (oh shnap!) so now i need anyone who has a tent, to bring one, and tell me if you are bringing on. =D simple? leave a comment.


on the other hand, just to let you know, the weather site calls for some nice thunderstorms!!!! whoooo!!!!! but hey, whatever happens, happens, huh? we'll figure it out.

Dinh, we need lights. anything from flashlights to those lights you use to fix cars at night.

what we need as a group:if you have it and can bring it, tell me.
-chairs!!! chairs chairs chairs!!!
-tents tent tents!
-portable stove (we only have one right now)

Camping Trip form info + picnic

Hello world! It's Linh....which means I have some more information on the Camping Trip!!! (applause)

So I have recently passed out the CIA permission form that you will need to get to Dinh by July 12th. Oh with the money. Cash only. Along with the CIA permission form, the Kittatinny Canoes requires each person to have a release form in case you guys die. Minors (17 and under) have a different form where they will have to get their parents to sign! Adults have their own forms. Below are the links to the forms. yes, you have to print them out. no scanning please.

here's the link to the campsite form for the 17 and under:

and the link for the 18+:

http://www.kittatinny.com/pdf/Adult_Release_Forms_2008.pdf

DO NOT FORGET TO HAND IN TWO FORMS! and money.

1) Tug-o-war! - Nick - (rope)
2) Three legged race! - Bryan - (rope...thick ribbon)
3) hulahoop contest! - Linh - (Hulahoops)
4) Whip cream pie eating w/ gummy worms! - Suong and Bryan - (whip cream, gummy worms)

Prizes will need to be bought. Do I have a volunteer?

We also need a Prize Stand that reads: NOT FOR SALE which May has graciously offered to make.

that is all. signing out! bye bye

CLC National Gathering

URGENT!

Let us take a moment to remember this most awesome day of the year.

I do wish the sun would come out and celebrate.

No, but really, I do have some news. Remember the CLC National Gathering that was $300.00 for room and board, food, and the program? You now have the option of helping me and Linh do great things on a National level for half price! Well, there is a catch. Our Dong Hanh friends will host us so we don't have to pay the $100 for room and board and we'll go out and buy/make our own food so we don't have to pay the $100 for food. (You'll still need to bring money for this though, but it will definitely be less than $100 unless you're Luan) The remaining $150 is from $100 program fee for four days and $50 for the Saturday dinner.

Contact me (An) if you would like to attend. DO NOT REGISTER YOURSELF ON THE WEBSITE.

So, if you want to go, please please please let me know as soon as possible. Registration ends on June 28, meaning your payment must be RECEIVED by that date. Again, the CLC National Gathering will be in Washington D.C from July 9-12. My family will be leaving Wednesday night if anyone wants to hitch a ride.

If you truly want to go but are unable financially, CIA will pay a portion of your registration fee. That is, if you swear your service to me during the four-day trip. =D
