Due to the rise in COVID cases and the CDC's recommendation for avoiding crowds and indoor events, the Executive Board has made the difficult decision to cancel the Holiday Party at Ace Cafe for this year.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

In abundance of caution and after careful consideration of the rising virus cases, along with new CDC guidelines, the OSTC Executive Board has decided to cancel the Holiday Party scheduled for December 3^rd.  It was a very difficult decision.  The good news is that we were able to book the Ace Café and DJ for next year on December 16^th. 

During this time each year, our membership has helped to support and donate toys to the Marine Toys for Tots.  With the financial struggles many families are facing, donations are needed even more.  If you are interested in making a financial donation to the Toys for Tots campaign, please see click on this link:   https://www.toysfortots.org/donate/forms/simple/Default.aspx.  Note at the bottom of the page, it provides donation details--96% of donations received goes to the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation whose mission is to provide toys, books, and other gifts to less fortunate children.  If you want to donate a toy, search for local toy donations locations, drop off sites are also accessible: at this link.

One of the best ways to get into the festive Christmas spirit is looking at sparkling Christmas light displays.  Amy McClurg and Kathryn Hardage are planning a fun filled biking trip--Christmas Lights Bike Tour, on December 5th at 7:00pm, starting at Retro Cycles.  For more information please visit the Local Events & Socials page or clink this link Christmas Light Bike Tour

You may be wondering when OSTC is planning our next get-together--keep an eye out for the details of a prospective January social.  Robin Beckman has located a few open-air venues. We all look forward to slowly and safely bringing back this monthly event.

Our first ski trip of the season will leave soon – Steve Clark is leading the pre-holiday party trip to Sun Valley, Idaho, aka the “Celebrity Hotspot”, on December 9^th.  This is sure to be a notable trip, as the Sunrise Terrain expansion debuts this season, with 380 acres of new terrain.    

On behalf of the Board of Directors and myself, I would like to wish you and your family a very safe and Happy Holiday!  Think snow.

Rhonda Ulmer, President of Orlando Ski and Travel Club
