2016 Camden Hills Ski Sale and Swap
 
For 50 years, the Camden Hills Ski Swap has been helping skiers and skaters sell off used equipment and up-grade with new and used winter gear.  This year’s Ski Swap is the weekend of November 19 and 20. Location: The Camden Hills High School, Route 90 in Rockport. 
This a great time to sell off your old winter sports equipment, while at the same time getting  some great deals on used downhill skis and boots, XC boots and skis, poles, snowboards, skates, helmets, car carriers, and winter clothing. Local ski shops will also be on hand with last years new and close-out equipment available at deep pre-season discounts.  Families with growing kids need to replace skis, boots, skates and clothing every year, and what better way than at the Ski Swap. Alpine and Nordic racers can check out new and used helmets, downhill poles, slalom and GS racing skis, while hockey and figure skaters can up-grade their gear.
The Sale begins Saturday morning, November 19 at 9 AM, and ending at 1:30 PM.  There will be experienced skiers on-hand to help you fit boots and skis, answer questions and get you through the check out line. 
 
Drop off your used gear on Friday, November 18, between 3 and 8 PM at the Camden Hills High School.
 
Ski Team members and coaches will help you price your equipment and get it logged in. You can even pre-register your gear on line at  (ttps://sites.google.com/site/chrhsskisale). You set the price for your used equipment and the ski team keeps 25% to help fund their racing season. You get 75% of the proceeds. TheSunday’s sale, from 10 AM to 1:30 PM, features even lower prices on equipment that did not sell on Saturday. If you dropped off gear, you can pick up a check  between noon and 1 PM, and take home any items that didn’t sell.
 
We are still looking for volunteers to help out on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. If interested, email margo.murphy@fivetowns.net
