Answer 1

What do you need?  A swimsuit, dancing shoes, warm hat, gloves, goggles, 2 sets of long underwear, 2 turtleneck shirts (long sleeve), Ski pants, warm sweater, snow boots, ski boots that fit tight around your foot and ankle,  ski socks, money, dancing clothes, money, friends, sun screen, clothing and sundries for the length of the trip.

  Make some new friends,  take a set of ski lessons, rent the skis at the area for the duration of the trip.  Take money, ski resorts are expensive, you did not mention the length of the trip, I assume 1 week. Start your conditioning program by 1 July, run and exercise every day. Do balance and strengthening drills, go dancing  to improve your foot body coordination. Jump rope 3-4 times a week, this will improve your balance and reflexes.

  Later your clothing for your protection, several thin layers are warmer than 1 thick layer, and if too warm you can remove 1 at a time.  Stay hydrated, ice your muscles at the end of the day, eat and sleep well, enjoy the trip. Take some friends with you, even ones you have just met at the resort and enjoy. This is a social sport every bit as much as a snow sport.
