Membership and Dues News

The potluck Après ski parties are held every Thursday at the Summit County Community and Senior Center(SCCSC) in Frisco from 3 – 5 starting December 5. No matter where they ski or ride that day, members bring a hors d’oeuvre, dessert or beverage to share as they gather and talk about their adventures with old and new friends.

“The guest policy adopted in 2018 and approved by the Summit Count Senior Citizens (SCSC) is as follows below:

“Effective for the 2018-19 season, any non-members wishing to attend ONE Thursday Loosey Goosey  Group (LGG) function as guests, will pay $5.00 each. Thereafter, they will need to become members of both the Summit County Senior Citizens (SCSC) ($15) and Loosey Goosey ($20) in order to attend future events. If they join, the $5.00 will be applied to the their annual membership dues.” NOTE: the exception to this policy will be the annual Keystone/Breck recognition party in which all Guides will receive a free invitation and not be required to join the LGG or SCSC. During the season, if there is a modification, it will be announced.

This procedure will handled by the registration chair persons at the Loosey Goosey Thursday events. They will handle the money and create a corresponding spreadsheet. They will collect the $5.00/pp and IF the guest decides to join Loosey Goosey, they will return their money, and the guest can use it toward their memberships. There will be NO administrative involvement by the SCCSC or SCSC.

Your Loosey Goosey dues pay for the cost of renting the rooms for the weekly parties, all party supplies, some of the liquid refreshments, and the Annual Membership Party.

Run totally by volunteers, the LGG asks all members to help out in a variety of ways:

1) Be a host at one of the Après Ski parties (10 to 12 each week). Duties include arriving early to setup the tables and staying a little later to put everything away and helping at the reception desk. During the party you make sure that water pitchers are full and the food tables stay neat, not to mention welcoming newcomers and enjoying the company of “old” friends!

2) Since every member must now sign-in at each party, members are needed to greet and facilitate the reception desk each week.

3) When you ski or board and “Après ” with the group, keep an eye out for who’s showing the most improvement and who’s being most helpful/friendly. At the end of the season, LGG recognizes the Most Improved Skier/Boarder and presents the Nancy Macey Spirit Award to the person(s) who have best represented the warmth, energy, and enthusiasm of founding member Nancy Macey.
