Ski Night February 3rd and Gala Tickets

Our second and final ski night at Nordic Valley is on February 3rd. The registration will be:
January 22nd, 3:00-4:00
January 27th, 8:15-9:00
The cost is $27 for the package that includes a 2 hour lesson, rental equipment, and a lift ticket that is good until closing that evening. The lesson starts at 4:00, so if you leave MMA right after school for Nordic Valley, your child should be able to get his/her rental, lift ticket, and to the lesson in time. You may choose to purchase a meal ticket for $5 either at registration or when you check your child in at ski school.
We are also selling Gala tickets at the same time. If you miss us from 3:00 til 4:00, we will be selling tickets during Jr. High Night as well from 7:00pm til 8:00pm. The price is $20 per person. The Gala Committee has spent many hours planning. This year’s Gala is going to include a DJ with dancing, a larger meal, a cash bar, and a bigger venue! Please support our school by getting your tickets and preparing to bid on one or more of the many auction items we’ll have!
We take cash, check, or credit card for both ski registration and for the Gala. We look forward to seeing you and will keep you informed of future ticket sales dates for the Gala.
Thank you for your continued support of our awesome school!
