We have another month before we leave for our trip to Whistler and I am helping out Armand with coordinating our potluck dinner that will take place on Tuesday, February 4th, 2020. Delta Whistler Marriott does not have a big room for our pot luck party so we will having a potluck crawl. Four to five condos on the same floor will be hosting this event. I will assign rooms after we know where the rooms are located.
The theme of this year’s potluck is International Cuisine. This is an opportunity for you to show off your culinary skills with American, Mexican, Persian, Hawaiian, Chinese, or Alien. It’s all up to you. (Main Entree, Veggies or Appetizer and/or Dessert for 6 to 8 people). We have 48 people on this trip. Each condo leader should let me know what’s on the menu so we do not end up with five different fried rice dishes. Do plan ahead and bring spices with you for your recipes.
There are 2 markets 5 – 10 minute walking distance from our condos.
The northern Marketplace + Liquor store is larger with more grocery choices and variety. The southern Marketplace + Liquor store is smaller with limited items. Bring your shopping sacks for easy carrying.
If you are driving to the north market, parking is free for the 1st hour.
There is a great bakery on your walk to the North Market place called Purebread; make sure to check it out.
February 2, the first day of skiing, is Superbowl Sunday. Kick off is 3:30 pm. We will have our Welcome Party and Superbowl Party in two NSC condos TBA. NSC will provide wine, beer and snacks. We will also have a superbowl pool. Please stop by to say hello to your fellow members.
One more tip: bring hand warmers and toe warmers. It will be cold in February at Whistler. Stay tune for more information.
