Bus Trip Guidelines 

1. You must sign up no later than the Tuesday meeting before the bus trip.

2. Bus leaves at 6:15 AM. Be there at least 15 minutes ahead of time to transfer your gear. Put your SKI BOOTS INSIDE THE BUS or else your feet will be cold.

3. Meeting Place is the Ramsey Park & Ride opposite the Ramsey Police Station. Maps are available on Tuesday nights at the meeting or at our web site www.gardenstateskiclub.com

4. On the bus, arrange for your instruction. If you're renting skis, be prepared to get off the bus immediately upon arrival so you can get your equipment in order and be ready for the ski lesson. There'll be ski instructors and a bus captain on board to help you. You'll also have to get your lift ticket from the bus captain.

5. If you're not getting equipment, stay on the bus until the bus captain returns with the lift tickets. He/she will hand them out as you get off the bus.

6. The bus Captain will let you know the party details, lunch gathering place and any other information on the ride up.

7. No Smoking on the bus. NO stops for the bus. There'll be a bathroom on board.

8. Dress in layers. Bring extra socks. Wear a hat! We will have checklist flyer on what to bring.

9. Cancellation Policy:
100% refund if you cancel Tuesday before the trip.
After that, you may get a replacement for yourself and advise that person to tell the bus captain at the meeting place that he/she is replacing you. If you can't get a replacement you'll be charged for the cost of the bus plus any other costs GSSC had to pre-pay for the particular bus trip.

10. Return on the same bus you came on.

*No calls to bus captain for any reason. You can check the hotline, (866) 503-4772 to see if any space available and take your chances at just showing up at the meeting place. First come, first serve for any available spaces with $5.00 surcharge per person. Once you get to the bus without reservation, you will have to get bus captain's permission to board the bus, so that members with reservations will be seated first.
