      <title>Tuesday Sailing on the Potomac - July 7 (Tuesday, July 07, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trip Leader:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Isabelle Zsoldos&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phone/Text:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;703-525-1308&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cost:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;SCWDC Members $30&amp;nbsp;Non-members $35&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Enjoy the scenery and have fun sailing on the Potomac River, whether you are a beginner or seasoned sailor. Learn the fundamentals of sailing or just relax on board.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sail from Belle Haven Marina in Alexandria, Virginia, located south of Old Town Alexandria on the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and adjacent to Dyke Marsh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.saildc.com/getting-here"&gt;Getting Here | Belle Haven Marina&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is NOT the marina closest to Reagan-National Airport.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sailboats are 19-foot Flying Scots, which are very stable and easy to sail. They are open boats, with no cover, so dress appropriately for the weather (sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, sun shirt, waterproof jacket and shoes/sandals that may get wet).&amp;nbsp; Also bring a water bottle on board. The group meets at the marina, outside the office, which is a trailer, and not at the dock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You are in good hands with a skipper on each boat, who are club members with extensive sailing experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Weather permitting, we sail for two hours on Tuesdays and Saturdays through mid-November (see the sailing schedule for the dates, times and to sign up). &lt;strong&gt;To ensure you get on a boat, reservations are required two days in advance on the sign-up page.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cost for SCWDC members is $30 cash per sail and non-members are welcome for $35.&amp;nbsp; Pay in cash (the exact amount would be appreciated) to the SCWDC volunteer trip leader before the sail begins. &lt;strong&gt;Check-in is 15 minutes before the sail so we can get out on time.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before your first sail of the season, you MUST sign an online sailing liability waiver (acknowledgement of risks) that is required by Belle Haven Marina.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2"&gt;https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This only needs to be done once during each sailing season. If you forget, you may come early to the marina office to sign the waiver.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We do not sail if it is raining, or if there is not enough or too much wind.&amp;nbsp; The trip leader will notify you by email if a sail is canceled. If you sign up and then cannot come, send a text or email to the trip leader as soon as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After sailing, we continue socializing (at your own expense) at The Haven, a small, casual restaurant that is very close to the marina.&amp;nbsp; It is located at 1401 Belle Haven Road, Alexandria, VA 22307.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2"&gt;https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a name="leader"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Trip Leaders Needed&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The sailing program depends on volunteer trip leaders and skippers to keep it going. We need a trip leader to organize each sail, which includes keeping track of the number of participants, determining how many boats are needed and paying for the boats. It’s not difficult and the best part is you get to sail for free every time you trip lead! To volunteer, contact program chair, Debby Block:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:dtblock@aol.com"&gt;dtblock@aol.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;or&amp;nbsp;703-967-0121.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Tuesday Sailing on the Potomac - July 14 (Tuesday, July 14, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;Registration will open when we have a trip leader. &lt;a href="https://scwdc.wildapricot.org/leader"&gt;Want to volunteer?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trip Leader:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;TBD&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phone/Text:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cost:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;SCWDC Members $30&amp;nbsp;Non-members $35&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Enjoy the scenery and have fun sailing on the Potomac River, whether you are a beginner or seasoned sailor. Learn the fundamentals of sailing or just relax on board.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sail from Belle Haven Marina in Alexandria, Virginia, located south of Old Town Alexandria on the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and adjacent to Dyke Marsh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.saildc.com/getting-here"&gt;Getting Here | Belle Haven Marina&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is NOT the marina closest to Reagan-National Airport.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sailboats are 19-foot Flying Scots, which are very stable and easy to sail. They are open boats, with no cover, so dress appropriately for the weather (sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, sun shirt, waterproof jacket and shoes/sandals that may get wet).&amp;nbsp; Also bring a water bottle on board. The group meets at the marina, outside the office, which is a trailer, and not at the dock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You are in good hands with a skipper on each boat, who are club members with extensive sailing experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Weather permitting, we sail for two hours on Tuesdays and Saturdays through mid-November (see the sailing schedule for the dates, times and to sign up). &lt;strong&gt;To ensure you get on a boat, reservations are required two days in advance on the sign-up page.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cost for SCWDC members is $30 cash per sail and non-members are welcome for $35.&amp;nbsp; Pay in cash (the exact amount would be appreciated) to the SCWDC volunteer trip leader before the sail begins. &lt;strong&gt;Check-in is 15 minutes before the sail so we can get out on time.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before your first sail of the season, you MUST sign an online sailing liability waiver (acknowledgement of risks) that is required by Belle Haven Marina.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2"&gt;https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This only needs to be done once during each sailing season. If you forget, you may come early to the marina office to sign the waiver.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We do not sail if it is raining, or if there is not enough or too much wind.&amp;nbsp; The trip leader will notify you by email if a sail is canceled. If you sign up and then cannot come, send a text or email to the trip leader as soon as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After sailing, we continue socializing (at your own expense) at The Haven, a small, casual restaurant that is very close to the marina.&amp;nbsp; It is located at 1401 Belle Haven Road, Alexandria, VA 22307.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2"&gt;https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a name="leader" id="leader"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Trip Leaders Needed&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The sailing program depends on volunteer trip leaders and skippers to keep it going. We need a trip leader to organize each sail, which includes keeping track of the number of participants, determining how many boats are needed and paying for the boats. It’s not difficult and the best part is you get to sail for free every time you trip lead! To volunteer, contact program chair, Debby Block:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:dtblock@aol.com"&gt;dtblock@aol.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;or&amp;nbsp;703-967-0121.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p data-watemprangeelementstart="1" data-watemprangeelementend="1"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;On Friday, we'll golf &lt;strong&gt;Briarwood Golf Club&lt;/strong&gt;, featured on the Golf Digest Must Play List and played host to the Futures Lady Professional Golf Tour for 10 years. Briarwood’s “18” championship holes lie in a peaceful, rural setting nestled in the gently, rolling hills of South Central Pennsylvania. In 2011 the course went through a complete tee complex and bunkers renovation which enhanced the spacious, contoured fairways and great greens to provide enjoyable rounds for players of all abilities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sail from Belle Haven Marina in Alexandria, Virginia, located south of Old Town Alexandria on the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and adjacent to Dyke Marsh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.saildc.com/getting-here"&gt;Getting Here | Belle Haven Marina&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is NOT the marina closest to Reagan-National Airport.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sailboats are 19-foot Flying Scots, which are very stable and easy to sail. They are open boats, with no cover, so dress appropriately for the weather (sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, sun shirt, waterproof jacket and shoes/sandals that may get wet).&amp;nbsp; Also bring a water bottle on board. The group meets at the marina, outside the office, which is a trailer, and not at the dock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You are in good hands with a skipper on each boat, who are club members with extensive sailing experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Weather permitting, we sail for two hours on Tuesdays and Saturdays through mid-November (see the sailing schedule for the dates, times and to sign up). &lt;strong&gt;To ensure you get on a boat, reservations are required two days in advance on the sign-up page.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cost for SCWDC members is $30 cash per sail and non-members are welcome for $35.&amp;nbsp; Pay in cash (the exact amount would be appreciated) to the SCWDC volunteer trip leader before the sail begins. &lt;strong&gt;Check-in is 15 minutes before the sail so we can get out on time.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before your first sail of the season, you MUST sign an online sailing liability waiver (acknowledgement of risks) that is required by Belle Haven Marina.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2"&gt;https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This only needs to be done once during each sailing season. If you forget, you may come early to the marina office to sign the waiver.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We do not sail if it is raining, or if there is not enough or too much wind.&amp;nbsp; The trip leader will notify you by email if a sail is canceled. If you sign up and then cannot come, send a text or email to the trip leader as soon as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After sailing, we continue socializing (at your own expense) at The Haven, a small, casual restaurant that is very close to the marina.&amp;nbsp; It is located at 1401 Belle Haven Road, Alexandria, VA 22307.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a name="leader" id="leader"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Trip Leaders Needed&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The sailing program depends on volunteer trip leaders and skippers to keep it going. We need a trip leader to organize each sail, which includes keeping track of the number of participants, determining how many boats are needed and paying for the boats. It’s not difficult and the best part is you get to sail for free every time you trip lead!

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trip Leader:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;TBD&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phone/Text:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cost:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;SCWDC Members $30&amp;nbsp;Non-members $35&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Enjoy the scenery and have fun sailing on the Potomac River, whether you are a beginner or seasoned sailor. Learn the fundamentals of sailing or just relax on board.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sail from Belle Haven Marina in Alexandria, Virginia, located south of Old Town Alexandria on the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and adjacent to Dyke Marsh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before your first sail of the season, you MUST sign an online sailing liability waiver (acknowledgement of risks) that is required by Belle Haven Marina.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Saturday Sailing on the Potomac - August 1 (Saturday, August 01, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em style=""&gt;Registration will open when we have a trip leader.&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://scwdc.wildapricot.org/leader" style=""&gt;Want to volunteer?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trip Leader:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;TBD&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phone/Text:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cost:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;SCWDC Members $30&amp;nbsp;Non-members $35&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Enjoy the scenery and have fun sailing on the Potomac River, whether you are a beginner or seasoned sailor. Learn the fundamentals of sailing or just relax on board.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sail from Belle Haven Marina in Alexandria, Virginia, located south of Old Town Alexandria on the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and adjacent to Dyke Marsh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.saildc.com/getting-here"&gt;Getting Here | Belle Haven Marina&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is NOT the marina closest to Reagan-National Airport.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sailboats are 19-foot Flying Scots, which are very stable and easy to sail. They are open boats, with no cover, so dress appropriately for the weather (sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, sun shirt, waterproof jacket and shoes/sandals that may get wet).&amp;nbsp; Also bring a water bottle on board. The group meets at the marina, outside the office, which is a trailer, and not at the dock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You are in good hands with a skipper on each boat, who are club members with extensive sailing experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Weather permitting, we sail for two hours on Tuesdays and Saturdays through mid-November (see the sailing schedule for the dates, times and to sign up). &lt;strong&gt;To ensure you get on a boat, reservations are required two days in advance on the sign-up page.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cost for SCWDC members is $30 cash per sail and non-members are welcome for $35.&amp;nbsp; Pay in cash (the exact amount would be appreciated) to the SCWDC volunteer trip leader before the sail begins. &lt;strong&gt;Check-in is 15 minutes before the sail so we can get out on time.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before your first sail of the season, you MUST sign an online sailing liability waiver (acknowledgement of risks) that is required by Belle Haven Marina.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2"&gt;https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/6075cb3b4cc416a51d3747f2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This only needs to be done once during each sailing season. If you forget, you may come early to the marina office to sign the waiver.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We do not sail if it is raining, or if there is not enough or too much wind.&amp;nbsp; The trip leader will notify you by email if a sail is canceled. If you sign up and then cannot come, send a text or email to the trip leader as soon as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After sailing, we continue socializing (at your own expense) at The Haven, a small, casual restaurant that is very close to the marina.&amp;nbsp; It is located at 1401 Belle Haven Road, Alexandria, VA 22307.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2"&gt;https://www.yelp.com/map/belle-haven-pizzeria-the-haven-alexandria-2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a name="leader" id="leader"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Trip Leaders Needed&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The sailing program depends on volunteer trip leaders and skippers to keep it going. We need a trip leader to organize each sail, which includes keeping track of the number of participants, determining how many boats are needed and paying for the boats. It’s not difficult and the best part is you get to sail for free every time you trip lead! To volunteer, contact program chair, Debby Block:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:dtblock@aol.com"&gt;dtblock@aol.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;or&amp;nbsp;703-967-0121.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Friday, we'll head to &lt;strong&gt;Ravenwood Golf Club&lt;/strong&gt;, an award-winning 18 hole course. Considered to be the top public golf course in the area, Ravenwood was selected by Golf Digest as the 5th "Best New" public golf course to open in the United States in 2003. Ravenwood has hosted many USGA &amp;amp; PGA qualifiers as well as the home of the 2003 &amp;amp; 2009 New York Men's Amateur Golf Championships. The championship golf course layout has bent grass tees, greens and fairways but with five sets of tees, it can be a fair and challenging test for golfers of all skill levels.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;" align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://scwdc.wildapricot.org/resources/Pictures/Ravenwood_FingerLakes.png" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Saturday brings us to &lt;strong&gt;The Links at Greystone&lt;/strong&gt;, with&amp;nbsp;a maximum length of 7,215 yards, a course rating of 74.3 and a slope of 130. The Links has a championship-caliber layout worthy of Golf Digest's coveted 4.5 Star Rating. Only a handful of other golf courses across the country have ever been rated better.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Sunday, take a break to &lt;a href="https://www.visitfingerlakes.com/things-to-do/" target="_blank"&gt;enjoy the Finger Lakes&lt;/a&gt;! The area is home to many local breweries and nearly a hundred wineries, so explore on your own or go with&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://crushbeerwinetours.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Crush Beer &amp;amp; Wine Tours&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;which specializes in private&amp;nbsp;Finger Lakes wine tours and guided winery experiences across New York’s premier wine region. They offer professionally chauffeured winery tours and wine tastings throughout the Finger Lakes, including Seneca Lake, Cayuga Lake, and Keuka Lake. Or, take advantage of the hotel's close proximity to the Erie Canal Trail, which runs parallel to the canal, is an ideal spot for leisurely strolls, jogging, and biking.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Monday, we'll golf at &lt;strong&gt;Reservoir Creek Golf Club&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp;a beautiful course with expansive vistas and challenging holes for all levels of play. Rated the #1 public course in Rochester, NY by GOLF Magazine in May 2023, Reservoir Creek is a par 71 course, and a hidden gem south of Canandaigua Lake with a maximum length of 6,294 yards.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;On our way to Ocean City, we'll enjoy a round of golf at &lt;strong&gt;Nutters Crossing&lt;/strong&gt; which offers beautiful lush fairways rolling over gently sloping hills, past eight water hazards and through a maze of over 50 bunkers, to rolling greens built to USGA specifications.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Then we'll make our way to the &lt;strong&gt;Hilton Garden Inn Ocean City Oceanfront&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp;located steps from the beach and the historic Boardwalk’s shops and eateries. Enjoy ocean views from a private balcony in every room, restaurants, and the indoor pool.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Relax Wednesday morning before we reconvene for another round of golf at &lt;strong&gt;Rum Pointe Seaside Golf Links.&lt;/strong&gt; This Scottish-style links is the only area course to feature bent-grass on the fairways and greens. No less than 17 of the 18 holes have a bay view with several holes having direct bay frontage, where you can start your ball over the water to shorten the hole. The Dyes have certainly created situations of risk and reward that will quicken the heart rate of even the most experienced golfer. From the back tees this championship quality course is capable of hosting a PGA Tour stop but forgiving enough from the middle tees to satisfy golfers of all skill levels.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Before heading home on Thursday, we'll stop for a final round of golf at &lt;strong&gt;Newport Bay Golf Course and Ocean City Golf Club&lt;/strong&gt;. The Newport Bay Course at Ocean City Golf Club is one of the most beautiful and scenic golf course in Ocean City MD and on the East Coast. All 18 holes feature bay or marsh views. The scenic views coupled with the challenging course layout will certainly make Newport Bay one of your favorite golf courses. Newport Bay’s design challenges golfers of all levels. The course layout will test your strategic thinking abilities as the subtle contours bring traps and hazards in play at every turn… all while enjoying the most beautiful golf course setting in the Mid-Atlantic.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The hotel offers spacious, beachfront rooms with private balconies and sweeping views of the Atlantic. The hotel has an on-site restaurant, a 24-hour fitness center, and heated indoor pool. This facility is conveniently located in the heart of the oceanfront resort area, within walking distance of local restaurants and nightlife. Of note: while the room fee does not include breakfast, this location gives folks many breakfast dining options.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;100% genuine West Virginia snow!! Great skiing and boarding begins with great snow and a peak elevation of 4,280 ft.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.canaanresort.com"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Canaan Valley Ski Resort&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;offers an 850 ft. vertical drop, the longest run at 6,000 feet, 39 slopes, and 150” of annual snowfall, along with the beauty of a West Virginia ski resort.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;This SPE (Ski/Snowboard Performance Enhancement) Weekend includes three days of skiing and/or boarding. By popular demand, a two-night option is again available for those who want to ski/board only on Saturday and Sunday. All participants will receive two half-day small group lessons with the Club's ski school volunteers at Canaan Valley Resort. Our PSIA/AASI-certified instructors will help you achieve your goals, whether you have never skied before or are an expert looking to refine your technique. Ski School instructors are volunteers, so gratuities are graciously accepted. Three-night participants will ski/board at the uncrowded Timberline on Monday. Participants who are 70 and older receive a complimentary two-day lift ticket at Canaan Valley!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Participants will stay at the well-appointed resort lodge in spacious lodge rooms. The lodge features an indoor heated pool, whirlpool, Sauna, and Fitness Center. Families and friends can book one of our two exclusive 4-bedroom deluxe Cottages. Contact the trip leader for pricing for the trip amenities, e.g., lift tickets, lessons, etc., for your group of one to eight occupants. The trip leader is not allowed to offer additional nights at the resort. Contact the resort directly if you wish to arrive early or extend your stay.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font open="" font-size:=""&gt;Historic Park City is the gem among riches. Nestled in the valley flanked by Park City Mountain Resort on one side, and Deer Valley on the other, it is the heart and soul of our mountain town and the epicenter of all that is fun and wild. &amp;nbsp;Since silver was discovered in the hills, there have been booms, busts, fires, and freezes, but the town’s adventurous spirit has never dimmed. Historic Park City’s has a rich and storied past: it began as a raucous silver town, nearly faded into history as a ghost town, and then re-invented itself as a ski town that grew into a world-class destination and host to global events such as the 2002 Winter Olympics and the Sundance Film Festival.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;; font-weight: 700; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Mountains:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Enjoy the deep powder bowls, long groomed runs, gentle beginner slopes, steep chutes, and three world-class terrain parks. Park City now include Canyons,&amp;nbsp;Utah's largest area with 16 lifts (seven are high-speed), boasts 3,500 skiable acres with 106 trails and eight peaks. You'll relish groomed boulevards, glade steeps, and undulating meadows. The area offersVail-scale terrain, plenty of off-slope diversions, and few crowds, but little of the Vail glitz.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.deervalley.com/discover-deer-valley/winter"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Deer Valley&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;is famous for its deep powder skiing, open-air concerts, luxury accommodations and international cuisine. These activities and amenities have earned Deer Valley Resort a frequent top-three placement in Skimagazine’s annual Top-Ranked Western Ski Resorts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;Delight in the resort’s 2,026 acres (820 hectares) of skiable terrain, which spreads across six interconnecting mountains. Carve tracks on over 60 runs that are groomed daily, including trails used during the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;Deer Valley’s Expanded Terrain represents a long-awaited evolution of the resort experience. For the 25/26 winter season, guests will enjoy more than 4,300 acres of skiable terrain served by 10 new chairlifts, including a 10-person gondola, along with enhanced skier services at the base area. This expansion more than doubles the size of the resort while maintaining a limited daily skier count and preserving a ski-only experience. Sorry No Snowboarders allowed.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;With five awe-inspiring peaks towering over an authentic mountain town, &lt;a href="https://www.breckenridge.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Breckenridge&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is unquestionably a must-visit locale. A journey into the town of Breck serves up access to&amp;nbsp;30 bars, pubs and restaurants on Main Street alone, including Breckenridge brewery. While the town’s Victorian architecture and designation as Colorado’s largest historic district make a trip to Breck an aesthetically appealing and historically enriching experience, the array of activities—from powder and groomers to shopping, dining and nightlife—keeps things exciting. Not to mention that it's a great jumping off point for hiking, with close access to many of Colorado's 14ers. Breckenridge has its own pulse, and visitors feel it as soon as they arrive. All of which makes it a perfect destination for a the Blue Ridge Ski Councils Annual Western Carnival. There's something happening for everyone. There'll be a Welcome Dinner, Trip Leader Hosted Apres Ski, and a Farewell Dinner/Dance.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMcQfbmpo_U"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Breckenridge Video&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Resort:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
From the legendary terrain, charming old-world village, Après' Ski, nightlife, dining, and shopping, Vail has it all.&amp;nbsp; There is something for everyone beginner, intermediate, expert, and the non-skier alike. A perennial favorite, this trip sells out each and every year. If you haven’t skied Vail yet, this is definitely the trip for you. A week is hardly enough to experience it all, you will definitely want to return.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Vail Village is a charming and diverse, alpine-style pedestrian village whose twin centers are seamlessly linked with swift, free buses. Nightlife abounds with music, fun, and 110 restaurants and bars for all tastes. The village also features dozens of shops, boutiques, and galleries.&amp;nbsp; Vail honors the&amp;nbsp;EPIC&amp;nbsp;season pass.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mountain:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Vail’s epic 5,289 skiable acres makes it one of the largest ski resorts in the world with terrain for all abilities.&amp;nbsp; The Front Side has green, blue and black runs from almost every lift making the mountain accessible for novices, intermediates, and advanced skiers and boarders.&amp;nbsp; The Back Bowls and Blue-Sky Basin will keep advanced and expert skiers and boarders entertained for days.&amp;nbsp; Impeccable grooming, almost all green and blue runs are groomed every night keeping the runs in pristine condition but leaving some bumps and gnarly conditions for those up to the challenge, skiing. New Sun Down Lift to access Sun Down Bowl and a new high speed 6 seater at Game Creek Bowl will significantly reduce wait times. Vail is truly like no mountain you’ve experienced.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: 700;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Lodging:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Resort:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://explorewhitefish.com/entries/five-winter-adventures-in-whitefish/910cd661-573f-46b2-aacd-e4202c0570c1" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Whitefish&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Montana,&amp;nbsp;is known for its small-town hospitality, which you will feel from when you arrive until you leave. It's a genuine small town with unique restaurants, breweries, shops, and galleries located on the shores of Whitefish Lake, surrounded by scenic mountains. Whitefish Mountain Resort is just a short distance from town. It's an old-school Montana skier's mountain with no crowds, lift lines, pretensions, or high price tags. If a city and a mountain aren't enough, Glacier National Park is just 30 minutes away. If skiing or boarding is not your thing, you can snowshoe, cross-country ski, go dog-sledding, ice fishing, snowmobiling, fat tire bike riding, or take a sleigh ride. So if you are a laid-back, serious skier or snowboarder, beginner, intermediate, or expert who hates crowds, likes genuine people, and wants value...Whitefish is for you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mountain:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Voted number 6 by &lt;a href="https://www.skimag.com/ski-resort-life/whitefish-mountain-resort-montana/" target="_blank"&gt;Ski Magazine&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;readers for&amp;nbsp;Western&amp;nbsp;Ski Resorts&lt;a href="https://www.skimag.com/tag/whitefish-mountain-resort-mont/" target="_blank"&gt;.&lt;/a&gt; Whitefish Mountain has over 3,000 acres of skiable terrain ranging from blue groomers, glades, steeps, and chutes. Start the day on a long blue groomer aptly titled "Inspiration," then take in the views of Glacier National Park and the valley. If you want more blues, stay on the front side or head to the Northside. If you're looking for thigh-burning steeps, glades, or chutes, Hellroaring Basin is the place for you. Don't miss the skiing in the North Bowl. For fans of Terrain Parks, there are four featuring boxes, rails, and jumps. Additionally, there is a Skier/Boarder cross course known as the Goat Haunt with banked turns, jumps, and rollers. There is plenty to keep everyone busy for the typical ski week and longer. With short to no lift lines, everyone will rack up the vertical feet. You also might see a Snow Ghost.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nordic/Cross Country Skiing:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whitefish is surrounded by a wide variety of trail systems for all abilities. If you want to get a good workout on your skate skis, head to the Glacier Nordic Club trails at the Big Mountain Trailhead or Whitefish Lake Golf Course. Suppose you want to experience the magic of Glacier National Park without the summer crowds. In that case, you're in luck -- Glacier National Park is open 365 days a year, and cross-country skiing is the perfect way to experience it in winter.

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 24px;"&gt;FEBRUARY 13 - 20, 2027&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;img src="https://scwdc.wildapricot.org/resources/Pictures/ski%20resorts/panoramaski.jpg" width="550" height="309"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRIP PRICE:&amp;nbsp; $2,270 (Does not include Lift Ticket&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRIP LEADER:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:mjsinrussia@hotmail.com" style="font-size: 20px;"&gt;Mary-Jo Swinimer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

See details:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://travelprotectors.com/about-us/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;It's the biggest terrain you've never skied!&lt;/strong&gt; Part of the Powder Highway it is no wonder that Panorama is a popular destination for skiing, snowboarding, alpine winter paragliding, heli-skiing and snowmobiling. Panorama Mountain boasts one of the largest verticals in Canada and with 120 named runs, 5000 square kilometers of heli skiing terrain and a bowl named Paradise just for snowmobiling, there is something to keep everyone entertained.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Glide down endless, meandering, corduroy cruisers, or watch future Olympians rip down meticulously manicured race courses. Tackle the freshly gladed, powdery paradise of Taynton Bowl, with its over 750 acres of ex-heliskiing glory, or drop in to the Extreme Dream Zone and see if your turns are tighter than the spacing of the trees. Or take the most memorable journey of all and learn to turn in the custom designed Discovery zone; perfect for first timers and families.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the pedestrian friendly Village, you'll find restaurants, apres ski, a large pool and hot tub complex, and a small general store. Everything you need and nothing you don't.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mountain:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Panorama is renowned for the whopping big ski vertical at 4,265'. The 2,847 acres of ski terrain is all below the tree line, so there are plenty of opportunities for enjoying the gladed areas and 129 lift-serviced runs. The pièce de résistance of the resort is the double black diamond tree skiing in the Extreme Dream Zone, and also the backcountry-type area in Taynton Bowl, formerly heli-skiing terrain. Most of the terrain is well suited to intermediates with many wide cruising groomers, and there are also beginner trails and terrain parks.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Panorama is ranked as #1 resort for most space per skier among the world’s 100 largest ski areas. What does this mean? Think vast areas of skiable terrain, wide open groomed runs and a selection of chairlifts that efficiently spreads people out across the mountain.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The ski area is perfect for a variety of abilities with 15% Green, 35% Blue, 20% Advanced, and 35% Expert. Think beautiful wide corduroy, winding down the fall-line right to the village or the door of your condo.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For black-diamond runs, head to Taynton Bowl. Formerly a heli-skiiing area, Taynton Bowl is now within bounds, so the slopes are patrolled, avalanche controlled and no backcountry gear is needed. Warm up first as the 750 acre bowl is all black runs. It’s a great place to find hidden powder stashes days after a storm.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.panoramaresort.com/planning/the-approach" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Approach Hotel&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At over 100 rooms, this refuge is located at the heart of the resort, and is the first step in accessing the outdoors immediately. Boasting both breathtaking mountainside and resort side views, The Approach is literally seconds from the mountain’s primary lift access. This is a refreshing revisitation of the roots of mountain culture. The design speaks to economy and function. Unnecessary embellishment has been banished, and in the spirit of trailblazers, offers a celebration of the essential. Amenities include TV, Internet, Mini Fridge, Ski lockers, Hot Tub, Sauna, and Fitness Center. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

This participation threshold was negotiated in our contract, so it is important to invite your fellow members, family, or friends!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Skiers/Snowboarders:&lt;/strong&gt; Enjoy varied terrain, fantastic conditions, and gorgeous scenery at three different ski mountains in the Québec City area: Mont-Sainte-Anne (&lt;strong&gt;Epic&lt;/strong&gt;), Stoneham (&lt;strong&gt;Epic&lt;/strong&gt;), and Le Massif de Charlevoix (&lt;strong&gt;IKON&lt;/strong&gt;). Between the three of them, you’ll find runs for every style and ability, so take your pick and get ready for a beauty day of skiing or snowboarding at a Québec City ski resort.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;We'll visit a day at each of the three ski resort&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span&gt;s, daily bus transportation provided.&amp;nbsp;An optional three day lift package is available, one day to each of the three ski resort.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Don't Ski? It's a French Get Away Travel Experience:&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;A cultural and geographic crossroads, Québec City is a bridge between Europe and the Americas and a proud guardian of the French language in the New World. It’s a wonderful destination to practice your French and to experience&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&amp;nbsp;a wide array of attractions and events that &lt;a href="https://www.quebec-cite.com/en/what-to-do-quebec-city/french-canadian-culture" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="abe12c0f-0aee-4c33-9f56-351e64e33841" data-entity-substitution="canonical"&gt;&lt;font&gt;celebrate its francophone roots&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;We're staying near the&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;Quebec City wall&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;, also known as the ramparts. The hotel is a short walking distance many attractions, or a short Uber/Lyft ride away. The &lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;ramparts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;are a historic fortification that surrounds Old Quebec,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;dating back to&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;1690&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;To fully experience local culture, start by wandering through&lt;/font&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.quebec-cite.com/en/old-quebec-city" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="fcd24811-10df-45f4-8f92-4b0421666f35" data-entity-substitution="canonical"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Old Québec&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;and the vibrant surrounding&lt;/font&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.quebec-cite.com/en/quebec-city/neighbourhoods" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="25ca9feb-5a95-4e00-b2c0-d30ef90d32bd" data-entity-substitution="canonical"&gt;&lt;font&gt;neighborhoods&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;. Chatting with locals leads to authentic, enriching encounters — and you’ll feel the&lt;/font&gt; &lt;em style="color: rgb(40, 47, 80);"&gt;joie de vivre&lt;/em&gt; &lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;everywhere you go.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The atmosphere is full of regional flavor, and locals are always happy to share a moment.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;One of the best reasons to visit the city is its&lt;/font&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.quebec-cite.com/en/restaurants-quebec-city/unforgettable-foodie-experience"&gt;&lt;font&gt;vibrant food culture&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;.

For brunch, enjoy wild salmon paired with seasonal berries — a true taste of the land.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;Québec City’s culinary excellence has even caught international attention, earning it a place in the prestigious&lt;/font&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.quebec-cite.com/en/restaurants-quebec-city/michelin-star-restaurants" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="35e2f5ce-9e5c-422c-a305-c71f852d3fce" data-entity-substitution="canonical"&gt;&lt;font&gt;MICHELIN Guide&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color="#282F50"&gt;, with more than 30 restaurants selected, including 7 MICHELIN-starred, one of which is among only two in all of Canada to hold two stars.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mountains:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Le Massif de Charlevoix&lt;/strong&gt;, located about 90 minutes from Quebec City, is one of the most unique ski resorts in eastern North America thanks to its dramatic terrain overlooking the St. Lawrence River. The resort features 53 trails, a 770 meter vertical drop, abundant natural snowfall, and a strong reputation for advanced glades, steep groomers, and uncrowded skiing. Le Massif is especially known for the sensation of skiing directly toward the river, creating some of the most scenic views on the East Coast, while still offering quality terrain for intermediates and families. Beyond skiing, the resort has expanded into a full destination experience with modern ski in ski out lodging, upscale dining, and the all inclusive Club Med Quebec Charlevoix at the base of the mountain.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mont -Sainte -Anne&lt;/strong&gt; rises 625 meters above the Saint Lawrence Valley and lays out 71 trails across three mountain faces with roughly 547 acres of skiable terrain. A freshly restored high-speed gondola and several swift chairs whisk skiers up 2,050 vertical feet in minutes, keeping laps quick. Snowmaking on about 80 percent of the mountain backs up the 475 centimeters of annual snowfall to deliver reliable coverage from late November through April. Night owls can carve until after dark on 19 illuminated runs, giving the resort the highest vertical night skiing in Canada. Just forty minutes northeast of Quebec City, Mont- Sainte- Anne pairs European-style charm, sweeping Saint Lawrence views, and big-mountain variety into an accessible Quebec ski adventure.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stoneham Mountain Resort&lt;/strong&gt; sits about twenty minutes north of Quebec City and offers forty three daytime trails across three linked mountains that range from gentle cruisers to double black tree runs. Three high speed quad chairs and additional lifts move riders over three hundred forty five meters of vertical quickly while keeping queues short. Snowmaking on roughly eighty six percent of the terrain backs up an average four hundred thirty centimeters of annual snowfall, and nineteen illuminated runs create one of the largest night skiing playgrounds in Canada. Well kept terrain parks, a half pipe, and lively slope side bars keep the energy high after the last groomer, with ski in ski out lodging adding extra convenience. Easy access via Highway seventy three makes Stoneham a no fuss choice for groups looking for variety packed days and vibrant après nights in the Quebec City region.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;&lt;font face="Sofia Pro, sans-serif" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Hôtel Le Concorde Québec&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hôtel le Concorde Québec towers above Grande Allée and the Plains of Abraham, giving your group sweeping views of the Saint Lawrence River and Old Quebec right from the room. Its four hundred plus rooms and suites are wrapped in floor to ceiling windows, offering plenty of space whether you are hosting a meeting or just recharging after a day on the slopes. A glass atrium houses the heated indoor pool, twin spas, saunas, and fitness room so relaxation is always on tap no matter the weather. Dining never leaves the building thanks to the revolving Ciel Bistro Bar with its panoramic skyline sweep and the casual Québec‑style menu at Cochon Dingue on the lobby level. Steps from Parliament, the Citadelle, and the nightlife of Old Quebec, this landmark hotel pairs postcard views and resort‑style amenities with a location that makes exploring the city effortless.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Resort:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Palisades Tahoe formerly Squaw Valley earned its reputation as a world class ski resort hosting the 1960 Olympics. Skiing operations sprawl across 6 peaks with views of Lake Tahoe located about 10 miles away. Palisades Tahoe boasts 4,000 acres and combined with 2,400 acres at Alpine Meadows, a short gondola ride away, it is one of the largest resorts in North America. Check out the High Camp uniquely situated on the top of the mountain. The pedestrian friendly village is host to numerous restaurants and shops, a luxury spa, ice skating, and more. Want a day off, head to the charming and historic town of Truckee to&amp;nbsp;enjoy lunch, visit a brewery, or shop for unique and local artisan crafts.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mountain:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Palisades Tahoe’s terrain is spread across two mountains, connected by the Base to Base Gondola. Palisades is home to iconic expert zones like KT-22, Headwall, and Silverado, while Alpine offers a mix of bowls, groomed cruisers, and tree-lined descents. The resort’s vertical drop of 2,850 ft and summit elevation of 9,050 ft provide ample variety across 97.5 miles of skiable terrain. With 270 trails and 36 lifts, skiers can explore everything from mellow slopes to technical steeps.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Beginners will appreciate the learning areas near Far East Express and Mountain Meadow, where wide, gentle runs allow for easy progression. Big Blue Express and Gold Coast Express offer access to intermediate terrain with scenic views and consistent grooming. Families often gravitate to the Gold Coast zone for its central location and proximity to dining and rest areas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Intermediate skiers can explore Shirley Lake and Wa She Shu zones, which feature long blue runs and natural progression routes. The Red Dog lift provides access to Lake View and Resort Chair terrain, ideal for warm-up laps and scenic descents. These areas offer a balance of challenge and comfort, making them popular throughout the day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Advanced and expert skiers head straight to KT-22, known as “The Mothership,” for legendary lines like Chute 75, The Fingers, and West Face. Headwall Express and Granite Chief serve steep chutes and powder stashes, while the Broken Arrow zone offers cliff bands and technical terrain. Silverado’s back bowls are a favourite for deep snow and fewer crowds.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Verona&lt;/strong&gt; was made famous by Shakespeare's&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Romeo and Julie&lt;/em&gt;t.&lt;/strong&gt; The actual location is a mob scene of tourists but the rest of Verona&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;is packed with genuine history. Because ancient Romans considered Verona an ideal resting spot before crossing the Alps, the city has a wealth of Roman ruins. The well-preserved amphitheater — the third largest in the Roman world — dates from the first century AD and still retains most of its original stone. Over the centuries, crowds here of up to 25,000 spectators have cheered Roman gladiator battles, medieval executions, and modern plays — including Verona's popular summer opera festival, which takes advantage of the arena's famous acoustics. There’s something about Verona that just stays with you. Maybe it’s the history, the romance woven into everyday life, or the way the city feels effortlessly charming without trying too hard. Spend time wandering its streets, lingering in quiet piazzas, and letting Verona unfold slowly—and you'll understand why so many people fall for it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Day 1&lt;/strong&gt; -Private coach transfer from Sesto to Verona with a stop in Bolzano that includes a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;2-hours private walking tour in Bolzano with English speaking guide. Lunch and Dinner on your own.&lt;/p&gt;

Free time at leisure in Sirmione. Dinner in Verona on your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Winter Park Resort&lt;/strong&gt; is a Colorado favorite located about 70 miles northwest of Denver. Originally built by the city of Denver as a winter park for its residents, Winter Park Resort has continually operated since 1939.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The ski area is known for its abundant early and late snow with terrain for all ability types. Winter Park spans across two distinct mountains and is home to a great mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced trails. Mary Jane Mountain is home to amazing tree skiing, world-class moguls, and wide-open alpine bowls.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The resort contains modern amenities with an extensive well developed trail system. The village base contains multiple lodging, dining and shopping options.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4 style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;Ski and Snowboard Terrain&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The resort consists of three interconnected mountain peaks (and seven "territories")—&amp;nbsp;Winter Park,&amp;nbsp;Mary Jane, and&amp;nbsp;Vasquez Ridge&amp;nbsp;— which share a common lift ticket. Mary Jane, opened in 1975, has a separate base area and is known for its moguls, tree skiing, hidden huts and generally more difficult terrain. Skiing magazine ranks Mary Jane the top mogul skiing area in North America, including the above-tree line&amp;nbsp;terrain of Parsenn Bowl. Vasquez Ridge, opened in 1986, offers intermediate terrain and mogul runs.&amp;nbsp;With a summit elevation of 12,060' and a base elevation of 9,000', Winter Park offers 3,060' of vertical, 3,081 acres of skiable terrain, and 162 trails. The terrain mix is 24% Green (39), 39% Blue (63), and 37% Black/Double Black (60). Annual snowfall is over 327".&lt;/p&gt;
