When I was in junior high, there were the kids who came back from spring break with the lift tickets on their jackets.
That was a big status symbol--"our family is rich enough to travel over spring break to Colorado, New Mexico, or (less likely) Utah to ski."
I'm guessing in Utah, it's not a big deal to say you just went skiing.
It's hard to advertise that you went water skiing, and nobody cares anyway.
