Holiday Greetings fellow Ski Clubbers,

​​

Are you ready for some fun? Are you getting excited about getting ready to strap those boards to the bottom of your feet? Do you long for the feel of exhilaration, the speed, and the crisp wind on your face, as you enjoy the outdoors?  Well our time is about to arrive.!

​

You can enhance that feeling by attending the General meeting, December 9th, play some Bingo, maybe leaving with a lift ticket in your pocket to ski one of our local ski areas for FREE.  Tickets from Bittersweet Resort, Timber Ridge Ski Area, and Caberfae Peaks, will be some of the numerous prizes.

​

Thanks to Tom Crandall, from the Bittersweet ski patrol, assisted by Dave Elmore, for giving us insight on what it takes to become a ski patroller, at our November General meeting. Tom had some history of the organization as well has the training discussion they receive.  The individual confidence level that one receives from the training is immeasurable in everyday life.  If interested in learning more, contact one of the local ski areas Ski Patrol stations.

​

Many THANKS to trip chairs Kathy Rubino and Cheryl Dedoes as they kick off our Club offered trips with the “Up North” weekend excursion, January 9 – 11. It is always fun to be had -- Michigan’s beautiful north country!

​

Nubs Nob midweek trip (Jan. 26 – 30) has a few openings remaining for this low cost, awesomely fun, ski vacation at one of the best in the Midwest, numerous award winning, ski areas.  Contact Gerry Tillman to get signed up.

​

To those of you who are traveling To Banff and Sunshine Resort in Canada, with terrific trip chair, Michele Mollard, (I’m a little jealous), be sure your passport and out of country travel documents are in order.  I know Michele has notified all attendees, but just be sure you are good to go. You don’t want surprises.

​

Hope to see many of you in December as we get ready to start our 2026 ski season trips in 2026.  Wishing all a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season.
