Century City Ski Club has been going to this location for well over 30 years. This years dates are: June 25-28 July 16-19 August 13-16 September 24-27 You can arrive on the Wednesday afternoon before the trip to setup camp. We will not be supplying anything on Wednesday. The actual trip starts on Thursday morning with Breakfast. The trip ends on Sunday around 11 or 12 in the afternoon. Please help wash and wipe down the boats when they are pulled out of the water. These are 2, 3 or 4 day trips. The costs are: $175 for Saturday-Sunday, $349 Friday-Sunday or $439 Thursday-Sunday If you just want to camp and eat with us, the costs are half of the above prices. Please contact us for more info. We accept Zelle (preferred), Venmo, Checks and Cash. There is an extra fee for campers (RV's $35 per day) and pets ($4 per day). Email us for pricing. Email us for special prices for Thursday-Friday or Thursday-Saturday or Friday-Saturday. Due to excessive fuel prices there might be an added surcharge for fuel. Please email Aaron and Fred (aka David) at [summertrips@ccscsports.org](mailto:summertrips@ccscsports.org) for more info. Please remember that even if you RSVP here, you are not on the trip until we receive your waivers and payment. Before you leave for the delta, contact us to see if there are any others that might need a ride. We do not supply transportation to the delta, so carpooling will help you and others. We supply food and beverages for Breakfast, Happy Hour and Dinner. Lunch is on your own (if we have on Friday and Saturday leftovers you can indulge in, but ask before taking), there is a café near the camp site. We do not supply vests, skis, wake-boards or sky ski's.... BUT... we do have extras, so ask if you don't have any we will try and help. We supply the boat(s). You'll need a tent or RV or Trailer (added fee for parking RV and Trailer) or any other kind of sleeping arrangement (car camping). Please contact us for more info. Please remember to bring lots of sunscreen, a hat and towels. The weather can change from cold to hot and hot to cold in minutes, so bring something to keep warm just in case. I hope to see you at the delta. Regards, Aaron and Fred
