If you are a skier in Ottawa you have probably seen the Desjardins Brothers.  Both have sick style, go huge, are the nicest Québécois hommies you will ever meet.  They both ride with our pals in the GGW crew and also recently got picked up by the T&L.

Januedit / Tremblant March 3rd

February 25, 2013

Well I hope you all had a good reading week, I’m sure it was very productive and used to catch up on those readings you have fallen behind on and preparing for upcoming midterms… that or you took off to go shredding somewhere for the week, completely forgot about school and are now cramming for that upcoming midterm that you totally forgot you had this week.  If that is the case, after this week you are really going to need a much deserved break, so you should probably come up to Tremblant Sunday!

Sign up MONDAY from 2:30 till 5:00 in the back of Olliver’s Pub at Carleton or in 1848 at Ottawa U, or Tuesday 2:30 till 5:00 provided there is still space, just make sure you say what campus you want to get picked up at.  Bus prices are $30 regular, $22 with a membership card (from Carleton or Ottawa U).  You will now have to pay for your lift ticket at sign up, tickets are $45.  Rentals are also available, which you can pay for at sign up, rentals are $40.

You can also sign up for our overnight trip.  For more details click right HERE!!!  (it’s going to be awesome so you won’t want to miss it)

And if you still need convincing, look at home much fun our pals over at Ottawa U had up at Tremblant all January in the Januedit!

C.U.N.T (Carleton University Night Trip)

Hey everybody,

We are going to be holding C.U.N.T on March 8th-10th as decided by the majority of you who voted on our poll. Hope you guys have some of an idea on who to stay with during this trip. Here are the details and pricing for the trip:

1 bedroom suite (6 person occupancy): $75 for the 2 nights per person + $100 deposit per person(* see more info about this below)

Lift Tickets: $45 per day

Rentals: $40 per day

Bus: $40

The suite consists of 2 queen beds and a pull out couch, full kitchen and bathroom. Just like any other trip its a first come, first serve basis so the earlier you get your squad figured out the better chance of you securing those spots. If you don’t have it figured out by the time and still like to come we’ll put you in with others, were a social club, meet new people.

Buses will leave the Friday at 6pm at Uni centre parking lot (P2). The bus will return to Carleton as it would on a normal Sunday 5pm.

We will start collecting after reading week on Mon/Tues at 2:30-5pm at the back of Ollies as per usual. This is a trip you don’t want to miss!

P.S – if you’re a cheap snowbum like the most of us having an extra few people in a room won’t hurt. Snuggle up with that favourite someone(s) and have more cash for that alcoholic binge you’re going to endure.

* – deposit of $600 total or $100 per person is for liability with the travel company we’re dealing with. So don’t break/damage anything and you will get your deposit back. If you are using a credit card make sure you bring it during check-in.

Enjoy!

 

Heres an overall idea of what you’ll be doing

A lot of this…

More of this…

And feeling like this.
