The Winter Solstice seems like a great day to extend holiday greetings to you, our wonderful extended Adventure Treks family. Whatever special holiday your family celebrates this time of year, we hope it is a wonderful time to enjoy your friends and family and revel in the meaning and magic of the holiday season. Enjoy your well deserved break from school, and we hope you are able to get outside and enjoy the wonders of the outdoors in winter.

Please take time to phone your Adventure Treks friends and say hi. We all know that friends are the greatest gift one can have and the most important part of the holiday season. You were part of a special group of friends this summer and please make the effort to keep these bonds strong. I know several Adventure Treks reunions large and small that are taking place over Christmas break.

2012 will bring the start of a new Adventure Treks season and we are working hard to make 2012 your best summer ever. Two trips, (California Challenge 2 and British Columbia 2) are already full, and several others are nearly full, so please apply soon. We don’t want to disappoint anybody!

Our office will be closed Between December 23 and January 1, reopening on Monday, January 2nd. We will be checking emails and voice mails but not as promptly as the rest of the year.
