This will be the sixth year for the TSC to offer, in conjunction with the TSC Youth Foundation, its Fall Roundup.  The Foundation encourages children to participate in the fun sports of skiing and snowboarding.  Breckenridge will be offering children ages 4 – 13 a fantastic deal on its Youth Camp, which includes lifts, lessons, rentals (including helmet) and lunch.  In addition, there will be activities planned throughout the week to keep the kids entertained.  Blue River Hall in Beaver Run is a kid's “dream come true” with all of its video games, air hockey and even a 9-hole miniature golf course.

Lodging:
We will be staying at the Beaver Run Resort and Conference Center.  Beaver Run rooms are slope side at the base of Peak Nine, Breckenridge Ski Resort.  These rooms offer the comfort of your own home, with the amenities of a first-class hotel, including complimentary Ski Storage, an Indoor and Outdoor Pool, Covered Parking and WiFi.  Beaver Run Resort also offers a variety of dining options from groceries and sandwiches to upscale gourmet offerings. There's something for everyone.  For more information see  www.beaverrun.com.

Plans are progressing nicely for this to be a fantastic Thanksgiving week.  
The very tentative schedule is as follows:

Tuesday - Clubs arrive at Beaver Run Resort.  Note that if you want to extend the trip and come in earlier than Tuesday, Beaver Run will honor the TSC rate for those days.

Wednesday am - Mountain Tours.  Breckenridge Hosts will provide complimentary Mountain Tours for anyone wanting a tour for the TSC Participants.  Après ski every day at CopperTop Bar and Cafe in Beaver Run

Wednesday pm - Welcome Party currently scheduled in Beaver Run's Imperial Ballroom  with its floor to ceiling views of the Mountain.  Light appetizers and drink tickets (cash bar also available). Fun events for the kids and fundraiser for the Youth Foundation.

Thursday -  Skiing and every year Beaver Run has a Thanksgiving buffet that is the talk of the town.  Last year's menu had carving stations with turkey, ham, and beef as well as side dishes galore. 

Friday  - Race Day.  

Saturday –   Skiing and Awards Happy Hour and Final Party schedule in Beaver Run's Imperial Ballroom.  Plated Dinner and Drink tickets (cash bar also available).  Dance floor, DJ, and fun events for the kids.

YOUTH CAMPFor skiers ages 4-13 and snowboarders ages 7-13, there will be a youth camp.  For a enormously reduced price, your child (or grandchild) will receive 4 full day lessons, lunches, rentals (including helmet) and lift ticket.  If you do not want your children in the camp all 4 days, you may purchase daily camps, but note that your child must participate in at least 3 days of the youth camp in order to be eligible for any travel reimbursement from the Youth Foundation.  Also note that in order to get this pricing you MUST pre-order and prepay for the youth camp.  This pricing will not be available at the mountain either for purchase or for any "add-on" of days.
