go out and play? We write about those experiences each Thursday in The News
Tribune’s Adventure section. But there's always more to the story. Here, Craig

including their misadventures - plus post news and answer your questions.

MAHRE TO MISS THREE OLYMPIA, TWO TACOMA WARREN MILLER SHOWS
Just talked to Andy Mahre - son of Olympic silver medalist Steve Mahre and nephew of Olympic gold and silver medalists Phil Mahre - and he says he won't be making appearances at as many Warren Miller movie screenings as he had hoped this month. Mahre will miss all three screenings of "Children of Winter" Nov. 13-14 in Olympia and two screenings in Tacoma on Nov. 15.
Mahre, who is featured in a segment of the movie, will make an appearance at the Nov. 16 screening at Tacoma's Pantages Theater at 5 p.m. Visit Warrenmiller.com for ticket info.
PRAY FOR SNOW
The Harmon is throwing a party tonight to pray for snow and raise money for the Mary Bridge Child Abuse Intervention Program. The 11th annual event includes live music from Steve Stefanowicz plus prizes including ski, boards and lift tickets. The party starts at 6 p.m. and is open to all ages.
THERE'S SNOW ON THE GROUND
Ready for ski season? Crystal got six inches of snow overnight. It's not the first time Crystal has had snow this fall, but hopefully this time it's going to stick.
SAVE 15 PERCENT
I don't like to give free advertising to any company - especially preying credit card companies - but in the interest of saving you a couple of bucks I'm passing this along to you. If you have a certain type of credit card (ryhmes with Famerican Fexpress) lift tickets will be 15 percent cheaper at Crystal Mountain and the Summit at Snoqualmie this season.
