Who would attend an unofficial east coast NS weekend ski and party

Here is the idea (open to change):
Looking to get a gathering of east coast NSers at the same mountain in one house for a party.
Do this like the TGR group buys if you all are familiar with them.
Everyone pays me ahead of time and I book the house/cabin and get the kegs/food etc.
Want to gauge SERIOUS interest. If you would be down to meet up at a house for the weekend or even a night post in a reply that you would seriously be down and how much you are realistically willing/able to pay. Looking to make it all inclusive so you pay X amount of dollars and I get the house/beer/food and if group purchase of lift tickets are possible for a discount. You just have to prepay and get yourself there.
IF I SUPPLY BEER IT WILL BE 21+ ONLY!!!
This is just to gauge interest and if I get enough serious interest, I will follow through with it.

Ideas:
Where should it go down?
When should it go down?
Anyone have a bigger house or cabin we could use for free?
Anyone work at a resort that could get a discount for a bulk lift ticket purchase? Free tickets?
Good skinning locations for the people here who actually go into the back/side country?
Post ideas etc.
I dont really want to take all responsibility for the deposit, so maybe build it into the fee and then refund it upon getting it back? Better idea for this?

This is a brainstorm/interest thread. I am willing to set it all up and get it together if enough can agree on a time and place and commit.

Again this is unofficial, so Newschoolers has nothing to do with it (unless they want to get involved).

Sounds awesome. Somewhere in NY would be a good meeting place I think. Anyone 21 and younger, I'll supply the beer for you ;)

It can be bwob if. We go 18+ lets say. But if I supply the beer and cops show up, I am liable for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. It's a way to avoid the fuzz arresting me

This sounds awesome. If it all comes together it should for sure get a kick ass name and be annual.

Since no one looks like they will firm commit to this, I may just get a house myself and post the address and say come if you want and put a price per night at the door. If people come cool, if not, I will still party and ski with my friends.

Well, before people can for sure commit to something like this, you need to set a date/location. I know those were two questions you set in the OP, but it's really impossible for someone to commit to something like this without knowing where or when it will take place.

But no one is saying they will do it if its under $xx.xx on a weekend in x month... I wanted a little more insight from people than what is coming. I think If I get a house and have a hard time and date, then it will be up to them to get there. I dont think I will be able to plan it where everyone is happy in a place everyone can make, etc. So, for the first one, I will do it this way. If its fun, maybe make it an annual thing that can grow and change...
I will set something up probably in Jan or Feb. I will probably get a house Thursday-Sunday and invite anyone (over 21 most likely, possibly 18, but no young shitlens) for a small amount of money $20-$50 or something depending on how much beer needed and stuff.

Well, my opinion would definitely be to do it late season. Late season is always a lot more fun. Anything under 100 would be awesome. And with 21 and over, you're probably not going to get the crowd you want. 18 and over would be good, though.

For 50 dollars to come party and stay a weekend up north in the mountains...I'd do it in a heartbeat. But going with that, you should definitely still get a legitimate headcount and talk to resorts to see what kind of bulk deal we'd be able to get.

Do you mean that if we're under 21 you won't supply beer? As in if your under 21 BYOB?

I think 18+ BYOB is the way to go. I'm 20 and would love to go. $50 is no problem for a weekend, figuring a lift ticket and transportation will be another 150. Sounds like a fun long weekend!

That's what in saying. I'm thinking 18+ Byob. Hopefully get a group rate at a resort so lift tickets are cheaper. I will set up my trip and then give you guys a couple months to commit and get a head count.

The point is to have good skiing as well... Perfect north is a great place but skiing ice gets old fast

I'd definitely be in on 20-45 $ per person. We should get a place in Placid and hit up Whiteface. Placid is dope.
