By offering the 'Learn to Ski or Ride' package, we're hoping that people who've never tried skiing or snowboarding, because maybe it was too expensive, would give it a chance.

artists camera cast goofy great mixed normal particular serious sweet teenagers
'The Outsiders' cast in particular was a joy to be around - sweet kids, normal goofy teenagers off camera and serious artists on. They were great. I never got them mixed up with the characters, though. Each of them had his own strong personality.

This is all a love for us - these are our babies and our children.
