*2. Boston.Com Ski and Snowboard Expo *

The annual Boston.com Ski and Snowboard expo
<http://www.bewisports.com/expos/boston/>is an excellent opportunity to buy
gear at discount prices and get up to speed with latest developments in the
world of winter sports.

If you know you want to go, it is worth buying this pass via Livingsocial:
http://www.livingsocial.com/cities/2/deals/470380-one-day-admission-and-1-
year-magazine-subscription The expo will run from Thursday Nov 8th - Sunday
Nov 11th. Your friendly neighborhood Snowriders will be making an excursion
to this event, and we will be giving away 5 1-day passes to the 5 lucky
Snowriders members that join us. Stay tuned for details!

*3. Welcome back social *

As is our custom, we will be ringing in the new season with a friendly
get-together where free food and good company will be provided. Time and
location are still being worked out, but rest assured, details will be
revealed soon. Stay tuned!

*4. Website issues*

It appears that some folks at MIT are having difficulties accessing our
website, so if the above links to our site do not work for you, please
email sr-web at mit.edu and tell us from where you are trying to connect. This
is the reason why the season pass info and application forms above have
alternative links to Mediafire.

****************************************

We are very excited for the upcoming season, as there are
predictions<http://www.farmersalmanac.com/weather/2012/08/26/will-winter-return-with-a-vengeance/>for
heavier than normal precipitation this year. Hopefully we can all make
up some of the mountain time we lost last year!

Yours truly,
El Presidente
