Cockermouth Ski Club are heading to the Trafford Centre on Sunday 16 November to brush up on our alpine skills at the Chill Factore indoor snow dome.

The mini-bus will be leaving Cockermouth Main Street at 8am (outside Cockermouth Travel) and getting back to Cockermouth at about 8pm that evening. The mini-bus is free for Club members who have paid their subs for 2014 and £10 for all others.

Those coming along need to book and pay for their time on the slopes and / or lessons with the Chill Factore direct (www.chillfactore.com) and in advance. Please don’t book any slope time that starts before 11am on the day and we’ll be leaving Manchester at 5 pm.

The trip is open to non-members (even if they want to just go shopping for the day!) as long as they pay £10 for the mini-bus.

Please let me know if you would like to come along by the 7 November at the latest. I’ll book a table for lunch at 1pm (probably Nando’s as last time) so also let me know if you want to be included in this. The £10 travel costs can be paid to me on the day (cheques payable to Cockermouth Ski Club) but please don’t tell me you’re going to come and then change your mind!
