View Full Version : SBA- weekend in the SOUTH!
get me out of GA
07-06-2007, 03:29 PM
Okay so next season will be coming up in a matter of months. It seems that east coasters always get shafted with ****ty conditions and less of a chance to ride. Also, a large majority of the SBA community is on the east coast, but we have so many fewer SBA trips. This is for people in the south, because I am thinking Snowshoe should be the place for it. What I am suggesting, is that we get a good number of people that are willing to commit to get together and ride for at least a weekend, and we rent one of the condos on the mountain and ride all day and party all night. With a good number of people committing to doing this, the cost shouldn't be all too much, plus if we have enough people, we may even be able to get a group discount. So at this point, everybody use this thread to see who all is down for going and we'll post all the details here too. Hopefully by the time snow is falling we'll have something set in stone and reserved with our names on it.

So, cost changes depending on when the trip will be.
Are you guys wanting an early trip? or one in the middle or towards the end of the season?
Going earlier in the season (i.e. before December 21) saves you about $200 a night for the cabin rental alone.
Let me here everyone's opinion......

This is one I am looking at right now:

However this site has a TON of different rentals to choose from, so fell free to look at the others.

thats what I've been worried about. but if we can book around mid december, hopefully conditions will be good.
We can go later in the season, but it will be more cash for us....... your choice just let me know

Im new to this whole thing...would everyone just meet down at snowshoe wv? thats only 3 hrs from my house! So ne one in pgh we can all drive down...also I think the cheaper the better...december has good riding conditions....
get me out of GA
07-09-2007, 05:34 PM
Yeah, the more people that can carpool, the better.
The one cabin that I've been looking at says that there's a couple spots to park out front and the rest are around the side.
We could probably fit a good number of cars, but they may get pissed if there are like 12 different cars filling up all of the available spaces.

get me out of GA
07-11-2007, 02:14 PM
dude, its all on whats cheapest. I'd like to get a hot tub, but I'm not paying like $150 more a night for a hot tub, when the like condo center has an indoor heated pool and a hot tub for its guests.
Oh and if you want Clash, you may be able to carpool with us on the way up there. You could meet at like the bristol exit or whatever it is on the highway on the way up there. The only thing that I'm weary of is that I don't know if I can fit 3 dudes and 3 or more boards in my Audi...... I may just have to take my dads blazer up to snowshoe, but I hate driving SUV's, cause the way I drive+ mountain roads= a bad situation.

To be honset I think that this place would be the most cost efficient:
http://www.vrbo.com/52708
This is the condo that I stayed in last year. Its one LONG stairway from the entrance at the top of the mountain. It makes it cool cause you can come back anytime you want, but you'll also be around a TON of other guests cause these condos are pretty cramped together.

I'm so down for this! Though it looks like I'll be one of only 3 girls going, haha. I'm also able to pick up anyone between Henderson, KY and Snowshoe (yeah it's an 8-hour drive but I go to Snowshoe at least once or twice a year anyways). So, is everyone getting separate rooms or is there anyway to split costs on rooming? I'd way rather sleep on a floor than pay for my own room.
get me out of GA
07-15-2007, 01:34 AM
If everybody is down for it, I am trying to get a cabin rented out with enough space for eveyone.

If we have a better estimate of how many people are for sure down to go, we can make our reservation and deposit on a cabin, but we'll need a definite date for that too. Once we get the final prices together we can split up the rest of the cost equally.
When more details get established, we'll have updates to let everyone know.

That's the exact same unit I stayed in... The owner's are real nice.
And that really is one HELL of a set of stairs. Phew! But the shuttle will also take you if you're too tired...
Only downside is you have to go over to Split Rocks to use a hot tub (and that costs extra).

yeah I stayed there and that set of stairs is no joke. I smoked before going riding and by the time I was to the top of the stairs I wasn't high anymore...... I was pissed.
That condo really isn't that nice, and it doesn't allow for that many people to stay unless we rent two right beside each other.
Look at the first link I posted, I think that one is nice and it will hold like 12 or so people.
At this moment this trip looks like it should turn out well cause more people are down for this trip then I had expected.
I am going to be putting up a poll for what dates people want to go on.
It will be a weekend from friday night to sunday during the day and we'll have to be out of where ever we are staying on sunday.

Dude, I totally down for this trip. I'll be 3 hours away from Snowshoe. I'll try to get some girls to come, after all, I will be in college. ;) Oh, and I'm sure I could snag several cases of beer (it'll be cheap beer though--Natural Light, aka Natty Light-- so if you want something better, you'll have to bring your own). It doesn't really matter to me of when the trip is. I prefer not in December because December isn't that great, and I'll most likely be in Arizona, snowboarding. I think February would be best for conditions and all. Everyone should bring something to help with the partying. Like GA has the herb covered. I'll bring some beer (if I am able to get some). And there should be several other people bringing beer and alcohol. So kinda have a commune thing. That, or you drink and smoke what you bring. But it's harder for some underage people to get ahold of alcohol. What do y'all think?

well the thing about going earlier is that prices for cabin rentals shoot up after christmas/new years. The Main ski season i.e. jan-close can be like 200 MORE a night then if we went in like mid-late Dec.
Also, I can't promise that all the dates are going to be available. A lot of rental places are ALREADY booked for certain weekends now and the longer we wait to book a room the less likely that that dates we want will be available. So everybody HURRY UP and decide!
Like GA has the herb covered.

True, peak season will be a lot more expensive... Whatever date we decide on, I'm sure I can make it work. If not, then all well. It's not like I'll have a shortage of parties or riding in college. I'm hoping to go to AZ and AK this season. :D But of course, it'd be better if I could go to AZ, AK and do this Snowshoe party.

okay........ heres an IMPORTANT update.
So going with the first cabin I was looking at..... (see this if you forgot:http://www.vrbo.com/105374)
Okay... so the cabin rental will be about $1200 & we'll need $200 for deposit (that will be just a little extra between everyone that you will get back at the end).
please: GET ON THE VOTING!!!
I am going to go ahead and ask that we get a part of the cost up front, just because we'll need $600 together just to make our reservation. So start saving up and I'll get to you guys with when we'll need the money.

Yeah, I'm for sure down with this trip. I worked out a deal with my mom-- every year she wins a trip through her work, and normally takes me along; but since she's going to Vegas this year and I'm not 21 and can't do too much there (and I'll be in school), she's just gonna give me the few hundred for this trip. It actually works out pretty good for her considering the costs of a flight, food, and hotel to take me along with her (my dad and sis are also going with her).
I thought of something else I can bring, cigars. Some for blunts, and some nicer ones just for smoking. And for those who don't smoke cigars, I'll also bring a carton of cigarettes (probably just Camels or something).

most of the higher quality cigars arent good for rollin L's because they're not really made to be inhaled like you do when you blaze. thats why most people just buy cheap ones like phillies and dutches.

Okay seriously though....... If you have the money, lets get it together now.
(hoping that we get about 12 people, we'd need $50 up front from everybody, but since the # is not set in stone right now, I'm going to say lets make it $70, and all you'll have to pay is the remainder when the time comes.)
when you get the money or whenever you want to send it, you can do it via paypal to: brendancoulter08@yahoo.com
thats my paypal, and I swear I'm not doing this to take advantage of anybody, the money is going to be left in Paypal until I can send it to the woman who owns the condo to make our reservation.
Remaining costs will be figured out when winter nears, so hopefully by that time you've paid half or even the majority if we get more people....
and dont forget..... we need to FINALIZE our date soon!

Good Question.
Using PayPal is ideal, if you are unable to work that out please PM me and we'll find an alternate method of payment.
Right now I am going to try and just get a partial, but it will probably be the majority of your total payment, (The reason why I'm trying to get the majority now is so that I don't get ****ed over if you guys decide not to go and I'm the one who has to cover everyone's ass. If you make the majority now, then why wouldn't you get the rest if its only like $40 more?..... exactly) especially if we get more people dedicated to go when the time get closer, then the remainder of your payment will be decreased.

Get me out of GA, how are you arranging all of this? Last time I tried to book a hotel at Snowshoe, they wouldn't let me cause I was 17 then. Not accusing you of scamming or anything (I promise) but do you have someone to cover us in case they need an adult to actually pay?
get me out of GA
07-24-2007, 07:58 PM
yeah, i was worried about that too, but since we're renting by owner its different.
I will be 18 when this goes down so I'll be an adult, but if they need someone 21 then I've talked to swiftnotarizer about maybe taking over the renting aspect.
Another difference is that you were trying to book a hotel. Doing that is much different then renting a cabin. All of the places I've looked at are Rent By Owner, so its up to the owner if they require the person to be a certain age. Plus I am going to try and pay the woman who owns the place through paypal, which doesn't look at age or anything.
I don't see it becoming a problem with the way that we are going about it now, and if we run into any problems then I can transfer the funds from my PayPal account into another SBA member's and they take over being the actual one who's name is on the thing.

Wait, nevermind. It's only 6 hours from VaBeach. I'm used to riding in a bus, making it longer. Plus on 64 there's hardly ever cops, so that means atleast 10-15 over. So probably more like 5 to 5 1/2 hours depending on traffic and stops.

Yeah, what the hell am I talking about? It's interstate, which means an average of 20-25 over. I don't think I'd dare go 100+ the entire time on the interstate with the retarded drivers in VA. I mean, if it's wide open then I'll deff get up to 100, but I know that there's going to be a bunch of 'tards on the road, especially if it's the weekend before Christmas. Sh*t! If we have it on that weekend, it'd mean even more cops on the roads, which equals more speeding tickets and people slamming on their brakes to avoid speeding tickets.

You do NOT want to live down here. It's not bad to visit, because you're in the tourist part of town. But it sucks. Traffic is horrible, the streets are even worse, people suck, everyone's uptight. Yeah, the cops are d*cks. Especially at the Ocean Front. That's where they put all the rookies who have big egos and abuse their power. Word of advice: do NOT hang out around the Ocean Front past midnight. You WILL get shot, stabbed, raped, robbed, and/or beaten. At night, the Ocean Front become REALLY ghetto-- one of the worst places in VaBeach. Oh, and avoid the Peppermint Beach Club. The bouncers are major assh0les, and when there's not a rock concert there, it's really ghetto. Do check out WRV and The Jewish Mother (aka Jew Mom's to locals), best surfshop and diner/concert venue in the Beach. The Beach does have some really good bands. If you're ever able to see Jackmove, you MUST see them. They are an amazing local reggae/ska/punk band. They're looking to work with the producer of Matisyahu and are reviewing several major label contracts (they havent signed any because they want controll of their band). So yeah, the music scene is good, and good restruants, but that's about it.

Yeah, sorry to rain on everyone's parade, but this trip in all will cost a good little chunk of cash.
Hopefully just the cost of the rent will be a little over $100 if we get about a dozen people to go. The $65 up front is just the money needed ahead of time to save our reservation. Later on we we establish the final number of people to go then I'll let you know how much the remainder is.
And to upset you guys a little more, this cost is just for the cabin we are staying at, I haven't looked at getting any group rate tickets or anything, thats usually for groups who are staying at one of the places provided by the resort..... but someone can look into it if they want. So basically...... you're on your own for lift tickets.

Prices are per day:
Tickets will be $58 per person for a student, and $63 for all others. Those rates are for a multi day pass during the weekend. They do offer group discounts, I belive for a dozen or more people, which drops the price down to something around $35/person-- I think that's the rate if I remember correctly. I will already have a season pass though. But if we're one person short of getting everyone a group discount, all those buying tickets can chip in and just buy an extra ticket (in order to get the discount), then just scalp it for a few bucks cheaper to someone else and split up the money accordinly.

These are people who have made confirmation that they are down are able to put in their share here soon. Others that may or may not be able to go are:
Vidal_Hasoon
camelback_kid
Penguins Rock
snowbun08
Snowsurf
Get your money sent and your spot will be held.....
If we can only get the amount of people that are on the first list to confirm their spot and be down to go then the cost will be about $180 between everybody and you'll get $20 back after the trip's said and done and we get our security deposit back (and we better cause if anyone breaks ANYTHING or ****s ANYTHING up, you are getting a kick in the nuts personally from me, and thats a promise..... and for the girls going.... just dont **** anything up, cause I'm not going to hit you, but a guy's different).
Say we get everyone from list 1 & 2 to agree to go and send their money then he total cost will be $115 per peson. It will lower with each additional person that agrees to go AND sends their money (second parts the important part, cause otherwise your name's not on the list), but I would say no more people then like 18-20 cause then a few people would be on a couch or the floor.....

That's lame about your mom. I got my money for the deposit. I just gotta go to the bank and deposit it, then set up a paypal account and send you it. I'll try getting it done today, but I still have a couple errands to run and then I got family coming over for dinner, and I'm going to DC for a couple days starting tomorrow.

No worries, it will probably be about a week and a half to two weeks before we can make our reservation....... cause I dont have $600 at the moment
xoBettyrides
08-01-2007, 05:06 PM
I just work all the time and need to get to the postoffice!! :) so look...im just going to send you 100 okay? caz that way i wont have to pay more later...ill just pay most of it now so we can reserve it

yeah thats fine.... whatever folats your boat, and you wount have to come up with the rest later.

is it ok if i deposit 100 next week?
get me out of GA
08-02-2007, 01:53 PM
Damn.... yeah, thats fine.
For anyone who wants to put in more than just the deposit, then you're welcome to it. To be honest it will probably be right OVER $100, so if you do 100 now, you may need to send a remainder of like $20 or however much it will be depending on the number of people going.

Where do you live in VA? Because if we do it the weekend before Xmas, then I'll be driving from VaBeach to Snowshoe, and I will most likely be in your area.

Yeah, you're atleast 2 hours out of my way, and that's not factoring in DC traffic. Sorry man, but you're just too far out of the way for me. I'm already gonna have to drive 6 hours and have to deal with all the traffic in Hampton Roads and Richmond, I really don't want to have to deal with DC traffic as well. Try talking to someone from Maryland.

Find someone coming from baltimore....... i.e., talk to Vidal_Hansoon and see if he's down for carpooling, if not then you may have to find another means of transportation

yea sorry i ended up not going. i started spendin too much money lately and i really need to force myself to save as much as i can for when i go back up to vermont for the winter so i can afford some place to live. i just made enough to get by last year when i was instructing so i wanna have some extra cash this year when i go.

I'm still down. I think Dan is still planning on going, but I know he has a lot of sh*t going on right now, and is a little tight on money. If it's just you and I, and a couple of other people, it's deffinately not worth getting that big of a cabin. I'll pay a bit more if fewer people end up not going, but I'm not about to lay down $300 for a weekend. If this trip does end up going down the sh*tter, which I'm really hoping it doesn't, are you just going to send my $75 back via Paypal?

yeah if anything gets canceled after you've already sent money then the money will be refunded, but it better not have to be refunded cause dammit, I want to go to snowshoe

Yeah, I know man. I really want this trip to work out. It'd be lame if it ends up just being a couple people. Hey, if nothing else you could just drive up to Radford, VA and I'd let you crash at my dorm for the weekend and we could go out to Snowshoe (it's only a couple hour drive)-- as long as my roommate doesn't have a problem with it, which I doubt he will.

No, no McDonald's. The only food available is the restraunts and cafetaria that the resort put up (the town is completely owned by a company who manages everything). They have Starbucks, and the cafetaria is tolerable. The other restraunts are way over priced for okay food. Snowshoe is at the top of the mountian, and there are towns at the base who have cheaper food and such, but it takes a good 45 minutes or so to make it to the base.
get me out of GA
08-09-2007, 01:29 AM
**** no, that pizza place is good and not too overly priced, but if you were really on a tight budget theres a little store between the village an the top of the mountain that you could probably get **** to make food with.
Oh and anyone else interested in going please let me know, cause at the moment I'm not sure how big this trip's going to be.....

I was referring to the number of people going.
If it's going to be a small number we may just get the cheap condos that really aren't the greatest just cause they'll be cheaper.......... but we'll end up having to walk up those DAMN STAIRS...... and thats a pain in the ass
punkrock89
08-09-2007, 03:24 PM
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That if we only get a few people going, might as well get a cheaper place.

Well see, this is the one I stayed in before:
http://www.vrbo.com/52708
Its not all that great, it has 3 bedrooms and a couch in the living room, but if we had more than 4 people then some will end up sharing beds, the couch, floor, etc.....
I'll look into a few more options if we are not going to have a big enough group to stay where we had been planning before
