A Beanie a Week: 2000 snowflakes; The new ski/snowboard season is upon us and now is the time to start thinking about what the ’08-’09 season will mean for you. What new slopes will you conquer? What skills will you learn or perfect? In at least 100 words, share a specific goal that you hope to accomplish this season and describe how you plan to accomplish it. How did you arrive at this goal? What obstacles will you need to overcome and how will you do it? A new great story each week will earn the writer a North Face beanie.; Ends January 26, 2009 (20 days left)
