Wednesday,
March 10th . . . Line Dancing Class ! |
 Hey Gang,-we have found a spot for the line dance class that some of you wanted me to do. We call it giggles and shakes in Florida because we do a lot of laughing when we mess up the steps. The Lincoln Recreation Department is letting us use the
Father Biledeau Center, Pollard Road, Lincoln. You will need to wear comfortable clothing as you will get quite warm doing this class. Wear short sleeves and maybe shorts as it is a very good work out. We will be doing classes from 6 PM to 7:30 PM. We will do some stretching and warm ups first and then dancing straight through to the end of the time. Bring water to hydrate and bring dry sneakers to do the dancing in so you don't slip on the floor. If you know of someone that might be interested just bring them. Hope to see you there.

Disabled Ski Hall of Fame Comes to Loon Mountain
! |
|
Lincoln, New Hampshire, February 7,
2010—Finding a new home on the east
coast the National Disabled Ski Hall
of Fame comes to New England
Disabled Sports at Loon Mountain.
The National Disabled Ski Hall of
Fame was created by the Disabled
Sports USA and the National Sports
Center for the Disabled in Winter
Park Colorado in 1995. For the past
15 years the hall has resided at
Winter Park Ski Resort and the
Colorado Ski Museum in Vail. The
hall was created to honor
individuals who have had an
influential role in disabled sports
as well as athletes who have
excelled in disabled sports. The
hall consists of famed pictures and
biographies of the inductees as well
as examples of adaptive equipment
used for skiing. The hall honors
achievements in adaptive sports over
the last 40 years.
“Disabled Sports USA and US Paralympics
are proud to have the National Disabled Ski
Hall of Fame housed at New England Disabled
Sports at Loon Mountain and the Franconia
Notch Area.”

Want To Also Save Money On
Washing Your Car ? |
|
Rumor has it that the new touchless car wash
located next to the Notch Express Irving Station
(that provides the $0.20 per gallon discount to
the "Flying Fifties") has a secret code that will
automatically result in $2.00 off for a car
wash. Simply punch in the five digit code
13690
in the key pad before you pay and you'll get the
car wash for $2.00 less! (Don't worry,
this is not illegal . . . we were asked to pass
the word about this code around by an employee
of the car wash.) |
|
Truants Taverne . . . Offers 15%

During the
2008-2009 ski season we
received a phone call from Mike Hyland, owner of
Truants Taverne and the White Mountain Bagel
Co., about two great offers for members of the
"Flying
Fifties".
Members got 15% off any lunch or dinner at
Truants Taverne in North Woodstock (excludes
alcohol and any other discounts), and 10% off
their entire purchase at the White Mountain Bagel
Co. in Lincoln. |

Flying Fifties Donate $1,005 To Adaptive Snowsports ! |
|
The Flying
Fifties contributed
$l,005.00 to the White Mountain Adaptive Snowsports
School at Loon during the 2007-08 ski season!. Support
from benefactors such as the Flying
Fifties has
a considerable impact on the ability of
students and coaches of the school to continue to
improve and meet goals for the season.
These funds will help defray daily costs
of lessons for many of the students. |

Some Energy Advice For The
Winter ? |
|
1.
Here are some useful facts to keep in
mind: |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of #2 fuel
oil is 139,000 BTU. |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of
kerosene is 134,000 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a gallon of
propane is 91,600 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a
kilowatt-hour of electricity is 3,413
BTU. |
|
2.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses a gallon of
propane you need to multiply the cost of
the propane by 139,000/91,600 or 1.52. |
|
3.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses electricity
you need to divide the BTU's contained
in a gallon of fuel oil by the BTU's
contained in a kilowatt hour of
electricity then multiply by the cost of
a kilowatt hour of electricity, e.g.
143,000 / 3,413 X $0.18755 or $7.86 !
(NHEC price used.) Would you still like
to have an electric car? |
