Hello MadNorSkis, If you've ever wanted to ski Norway, and if you've ever wanted to ski the Norwegian Birkebeiner, here's your chance. Jerry Norsman, of the Nordic Company, in conjunction with the Madison Nordic Ski Club, is offering a March 20 to March 30, 2002 ski trip to Norway. The club went in 1998 and had an incredible time. This time we want to go and have the option of skiing the Birkie too. I've attached a flyer which gives the itinerary and details of the trip. Basically, for $2,095, you get just about everything including all air and ground transportation, all accomodations, and most meals.
Take a quick virtual tour of the Rauland area, http://www.rauland.org the Gausdal hotel (in Norwegian), http://www.gausdal.com/hotell the Hotel Karl Johan http://www.virtualoslo.com/html/body_hotel_karl_johan.html and the city of Oslo http://www.visitoslo.com To coax you a little more, here's a testimonial from Dave Calhoon, ex-President, and traveler on the first MadNorSki trip to Norway in 1998: "Our trip to Norway was fantastic! From the mountains of Telemark to the night life of Oslo, that trip offered it all: great trails and conditions, an experienced Norwegian guide, charming mountain hotels and villages, wonderful side trips to cultural and historic sites, and a chance to immerse ourselves in a �ski culture.� Jerry knows Norway like the back of his hand and is very well connected there�some of the cultural sites we visited were closed to the general public at the time and were opened up just for our group. Also, Jerry was very sensitive to our family�s special needs. I only hope I get to go back!" So, check out the flyer attached or reply to me for more information. You can also call me at 608-437-4192 or Jerry Norseman at 288-8070.. I hope you can join Judy (MNSC First Lady) and me for a very special trip. Thanks, and I hope to hear from you. Jimmy VandenBrook, MNSC President
