Shortly after lunch on Friday, January 26th, one hun¬ dred and sixteen boys piled into three buses bound for the Loch Lomand ski slopes four hundred and fifty miles away. Nine hours later everyone was pleased to ar¬ rive at the Prince Arthur Hotel, where the party was stay¬ ing as guests of Mr. Weare. Skiers are well known for their enthusiasm and our group was no exception., Bright and early next morning the bus departed for the slopes. Upon arrival, the ex¬ perts lost no time in showing their prowess, while Mr. Wellard, Mr. Hammond, and Mr. Campanelli put the be¬ ginners through their paces. During these training ses¬ sions, several boys were seen in rather undignified pos¬ tures, but they soon regained their balance and were as keen as ever to repeat the whole operation. Lunch was eaten in the chalet where even the most avid skiers could be seen with hot chocolate to warm up and to taste the social life. Fol lowing this, several mem¬ bers of the ski team entered a local downhill event, but unfortunately they found that the road to the top is long and arduous. After a full day of skiing we returned to the hotel where everyone enjoyed a hot bath, a good dinner, and an evening’s relaxation. A light snowfall during the night provided excellent conditions for Sunday’s skiing. A good day’s skiing was enjoyed by all, and even some of the beginners ventured from the nursery slopes, and could be seen tackling some of the more difficult runs. We returned to the hotel by bus in the late afternoon stopping only for time to pack our bags, have a good meal, and thank our gracious hosts for their generous hospitality. The day’s exercise and the fresh air ensured that the return trip would be quieter than the first, and the buses arrived back at the school early Monday morn¬ ing, to be met by Mr. Kiddell, who had the foresight to phone for cabs for the dayboys. Truly a memorable weekend, and our thanks are chiefly due to Mr. Wellard who organized the trip, to Mr. Weare, our host, and to the other members of the staff who came along to give a helping hand.
