Ski Trip 2009

On January 22, thirty one RJC students and four staff members left school and its worries behind, trading them for the snowy slopes offered by Marmot Basin in Jasper, Alberta. While temperatures plummeted, flatlander spirits rose to meet the challenges offered by the mountain on both ski and board. Friday night was spent out in the town of Jasper enjoying the food and orange pop at Jasper Pizza Place, the swimming pool offered at our accomodations, The Jasper Recreation Centre, and finally appetizers at Earl's. By the second day it was clear that the trip had been a great success as many students retired from the slopes early, weary in muscle but happy of heart.
