Walt "Screech" DeSoto
Walter “Screech” DeSoto was the legendary half member of the PPSC. Though an accomplished Wedge skier, “Screech” was an individual who “skied to the beat of his own drummer.” Those who met him were often heard to remark that he was only “half there”. Though many would have barred “Screech” from Club membership; “Jacq” Frost, exhibiting the spirit of fair play and good sense that characterized all of her actions, persisted. In the end a compromise was brokered: “Screech” was counted as a half member on the Club’s membership rolls.
