Vail 2018-Columbus Ski Club

December 7-11, 2017


Come join 40 fellow ski club members for this traditional early season trip to Vail.  This year’s trip is better than ever, offering a new lodging venue, cheaper airfares, and a $10/person/ski day lunch voucher at Vail Resorts.  And we have designed pricing for maximum flexibility so that you don’t have to purchase lift passes if you have an Epic Pass or airfare if you want to use your frequent flier miles or wish to book in or out of a different airport.

Vail offers some of the best skiing available in the world with world class restaurants and entertainment. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, advanced, or expert skier, you will find plenty to ski and non-skiers will have plenty to do as well. Traditionally, Vail has had some of the best early snow in the country so you will not be disappointed.  Full package comes with a 3 of 4 day lift ticket, lodging at the Antlers, air + all transfers and a party.  If you have an Epic Pass (full or local), you can sign up with no lift.

Lodging

We will be staying at the Antlers at Vail, located next door to our previous lodging spot (Vail Spa).  Condos are 2 bedroom/2 bath and sleep 4 persons/unit.  All units have a fully equipped kitchen, gas fireplace and balcony.  These are extremely nice accommodations which we think you will like even better than Vail Spa.  Antlers provides complimentary ski valet to/from the Gondola through on-site Ski Butlers, complimentary on-site parking (if you decide to rent a car), complimentary wireless internet, business center and fitness center access 24/7, daily newspaper, daily housekeeping.  Antlers also will provide a Welcome Reception of beer/wine/soda and light snacks on the day of arrival.
