Ski Trip Lottery

Rules and Procedures

Eligibility

If a lottery is required for a ski trip, then an eligible member can only sign up themselves and their roommate. They can NOT be a proxy for another member.

In order to be eligible for the lottery you must:

  • Be present at the club meeting on opening night to sign up before the trip opens at 7:30 PM (*see note)
  • Be a member of the club, not an applicant
  • Have completed a trip form
  • Have the required deposit in cash or check
  • Present your valid current membership card
  • Provide a clean copy of your driver’s license for Western trips
  • Provide a clean copy of your passport for trips to locations outside of the US. An Enhanced Driver’s License is accepted for land travel to Canada (please note: Canada does not allow persons with felony or DUI convictions into Canada).

*If you are unable to attend the meeting on opening night, you may assign another person (a proxy who is NOT registering for the trip) to represent you. They MUST have all of the required documents (listed above) as well as your deposit in cash or check.

Lottery Process

If a lottery is declared the following process will determine how members will be chosen to attend the trip. Only eligible members will be entered into the lottery drawing.

  1. Numbers will be drawn and the associated name on the sign-in sheet will be offered the slot.
  2. That member then confirms they want to go on the trip.
  3. That member’s roommate also wins a spot on the trip as long (as they are a member, not an applicant). The roommate also must confirm they want to go on the trip. If the roommate declines, then their name will then be taken out of the lottery pool for the trip and the member will be assigned a new roommate.

The process is repeated until the trip is filled.

Any member in the lottery who was not selected for the trip has the right of first refusal for the waiting list for this trip. Their name will be added to the wait list in the order of the sign-in sheet.
