A 1 hour crash course introduction to snowboarding followed by a Geek dinner.
Meet for a quick drink at the sno-zone bar that overlooks the snowboarding area and get to meet everyone at 6pm. At 6:30 ish we'll go get changed. Lessons start at 7pm.
You can hire gloves and jacket and (salopettes) waterproof trousers for a fiver. If you have friends that ski or snowboard, try to borrow solopettes. You can do your lessons in Jeans, but they will get totally soaked. Bring with a complete change of clothing as 1 hour will have you drenched in sweat! (it's fun, but also can be hard work.)

A complete course so that you're ready to hit the slopes for real will take between 4 and 6 hours. Your introduction course is the first hour.
