Senior High Ski Trip

Feel like going skiing/snowboarding in the mountains? Well, on Thursday, February 21, Calvary and Sharon are heading to Big Sky by Bozeman, Montana! We’ll leave Grand Forks early in the morning on Thursday (yes, you’ll miss school) and drive to Bozeman,
ski/snowboard Friday - Sunday, and drive through the night on Sunday, returning home very early on Monday morning so you could attend school that day!

Cost for this trip is $385 and includes transportation, 3 full days of skiing/snowboarding, lodging, and some meals. You’ll need to bring money for food, souvenirs, and rental (if needed).

This trip is open to all students grades 9-12. You may bring ONE friend. Space is limited, so sign up in the church office with your non-refundable deposit of $100 (needed to sign up) and make sure you have a current medical release form filed in the office. Also, since Calvary and Sharon are going TOGETHER, please sign up by December 5 at the church at which you belong. Thanks!
