On March 22nd, we were able to ski on the 101st day that Snow Trails was open this season. 101 days of skiing! I checked and Kip Bowman had gone skiing 50 times, while other members were not that far behind. But now it's time to change seasons and our thinking as well. Thanks to our amazing, outgoing Activities Director we have plenty going on this summer. Please check the enclosed articles to find out what is being offered; meanwhile the Board is always open to new ideas. On that note, it's hard to believe it is once again time to choose the new board for the Newark Ski Club. We need to have as many members attend and vote at the April meeting. Since the club is providing a picnic dinner and drinks will be flowing from the bar, you have absolutely NO EXCUSE for missing a fun Tuesday night out!

Trip Chairpersons: Beth Swick: & Nancy Channell TRUMPET IN THE LAND An Outdoor Drama performed at the Schoenbrunn Amphitheatre in New Philadelphia, Ohio Saturday, August 8:30p Wr itten by Pu litzer pr ize -winning playwright Paul Green, "Trumpet in the Land" is an unforgettable experience that brings to life the Ohio frontier during the Revolutionary War. Performed in the same hills from which this story is born, Trumpet is a thrilling and passionate story of a peaceful people's influence on the war and the tragic events that encircled the founding of Ohio's first settlement, Schoenbrunn. For more information check-out the web site Charlie Voss will be your trip leader for this fun event. He is currently developing some options for those adventurous NSC members who sign-up for this activity. Since New Philadelphia is about an hour and a half from Newark we are exploring a trip package that would include overnight lodging and plans to visit some area wineries Saturday or Sunday OR BOTH! Performance tickets themselves retail for $20/each, but we may qualify for a discount if we go as a group. There will be a sign-up sheet at the April Election Night Dinner Meeting. We expect to have more details for you that night as well. If you cannot make the meeting, please let Charlie know that you are interested in going to this great vie of early American & Ohio History!

We will have our own private boat tour on the Queen of the Lake to visit the historic Cranberry Bog State Nature Preserve. You ll want to see and experience this unique phenomenon before it is gone forever. We will learn about the history of the bog, and observe how the lake surrounds the bog, making Cranberry Bog the only known occurrence of its kind in the world. We will meet between 3:00 and 3:15 PM at the North Shore Boat Launch and Park located on SR 79 in the Village of Buckeye Lake. Cost is $10 per person (unless we have less than 10 people in which case it is $15/pp). Following our boat tour we will adjourn to the Buckeye Lake Yacht Club for a Happy Hour with dinner available. This is a private club so take this opportunity to enjoy the lakeside setting. You need not attend the boat tour to join us at the Happy Hour, but we WILL need a solid estimate of how many will be attending, so let Trip Leader Ann Oliver know if you plan to be there. We know there are currently many issues with Buckeye Lake, but the tour operator is optimistic that she will be able to continue these informative events. The NSC Board is electing to continue planning this activity, wanting to support local business owners and the community through this difficult time. If the boat tour were to be cancelled we will still proceed with the Happy Hour at the Yacht Club.

Happy Hours thru June April s Happy Hour will be held in Newark at the new Tequilaville on Church St. on Friday April 24th, which has been suggested by a few members and also donated, so two birds one giant margarita! Now this will be on the 4th Friday of the month due to other things I need to do on the previous Fridays (it s good to be the one doing the planning!!). In May, we will be going back to an old favorite we like to visit during the Spring Hidden Lakes Winery in Canal Winchester. We ve never had a bad time out on their patio overlooking the pond & it s water spray. This is a great place to rest & relax inside the city. Then, in June, we will return for some more fun at the Wishmaker House Winery in Belleville. So, get Happy, Hour that is ;~}
