Tips for a smoother check in:

· All items should be clean and in good condition – NO STRAIGHT SKIS or OLD BINDINGS!

· Have your clothes on hangers, if possible.

· Bind poles together with cable cinches

· Tie boots together.

· KNOW SIZES OF ITEMS

· Decide what price you want for your items: check Craig’s List or Ebay. A rule of thumb is: Start at 50% less than you paid for the item, and then deduct 10% for each subsequent year. Also, think: do I want to come back out to pick my unsold items up and store them another year?

· Fill out forms NEATLY, especially your address: that is where checks are mailed.

· Come before 4:00, if possible – the lines are much longer at night.

· If any of your items did NOT sell, you MUST come and pick up your unsold items (or arrange for someone else to do it for you) on either
Monday or Tuesday, November 14 or 15, from Noon – 8:00pm. We have to have everything out of the building by Tuesday night,
November 9, (Cannonsburg Ski Area graciously lets us take over the building for 2 weeks and they need it back).

Please be patient with us, we are all volunteering and only do this once a year, and most of us work full-time, as well. Thanks for your support of the West Michigan Ski Patrols .
