The 10 Essential Things you must do this summer!!!!!

Alright alright the title should have said, "the 10 essential things you must do related to skiing,,,this summer"

Most skiers put away skiing equipment ( some in dangerous places) and forget skiing!

Then there are those like you who dream of the endless winter, thus read all messages about skiing.

There are 10 \Summer " activities" which are essential,,,if you are really a "serious" skier!

I will GIVE to any skier a polar fleece jacket to any skier who gets the most "activities" all serious skiers must do! The answer will be posted in one week!

This project is valid for one week!

No Mike I will NOT give you hints!
Yes Ellistine you can search on Google!
