San Francisco Employees Offered Bargain-Basement Prices For a Week-End of Skiing in High Sierras The San Francisco Panair Club has completed arrangements for its “best ever” ski party. It will be held the weekend of February 25th. Accommodations will be provided at Goldcrest Lodge (motel type) at King’s Beach, Lake Tahoe. Two days of skiing will be available at world-famous Squaw Valley, just selected as the United States entry in the derby to select the site of the 1956 Winter Olympics. The price of the ticket includes two nights (Friday and Saturday) lodging at Goldcrest Lodge, two days (Saturday and Sunday) skiing at Squaw Valley and the following meals: Breakfast on Saturday and Sunday. This will be a light snack affair—juice, ham or bacon and eggs, all the. buttermilk hotcakes you can eat, and coffee. Add to that a full-course roast beef dinner on Saturday night. All these meals will be served at the Cal-Neva Biltmore. There will also be dancing Saturday night at the Cal-Neva Biltmore, with a drawing for some special prizes at 11 p.m. But that’s not all. At 12:30 Sat- urday afternoon there will be free ski instruction at Squaw Valley. Separate classes will be conducted for beginning, intermediate and advanced skiers. And finally, ticket holders will get reduced rates on ski lifts and tows, equipment rentals and any additional lessons they might wish to take. Now, how much do you think such a week-end will cost? Sounds like about $50? Panair Club members can get the complete package deal for only $7.45. Guests of members and non-members will be charged $9.95. This price includes everything enumerated above. Just about everything except transportation and lunches is provided. A word about the accommodations—they are warm, comfortable rooms, with bath. They are not dormitories.
