The President's Corner - May, 2026

Hello again Ski Clubbers,

Here we are, entering a new phase for a few months.  New opportunities to connect with fellow members and enjoy the warmer weather. 

Congrats to Bill Cole who left the April General Meeting with $150.00 in his pocket.  He was the lucky winner of the combined attendees of any overnight trip the club had sponsored.

First the Golf Scramble is sent for May 16th at Cedar Creek GC in Battle Creek. Contact Tanya Potter if you want to join in, and chase that little white ball around the beautiful scenery. See more info in this newsletter.

Save the date of July 11th for the summer paddle and brunch that Kathy Rubino and Dave Dunlap are hosting.  The past years have been beautiful weather with some fabulous morsels to enjoy after our morning paddling has been completed.

The annual elections were held at the General Meeting.  Most of the present Board are returning to volunteer to help your club.  We do want to welcome to the Board Tom Keizeer, who has stepped forward to fill the membership chair position being vacated by Karen Blanck.  We want to thank Karen for her many years in that position and keeping membership listings and info up to date.

External VP David Elmore has been busy getting quotes for several out west ski areas for next season.  We should be making a decision soon as to the destination. It looks like the IKON pass will be the one to purchase if you are planning on going out west.

We (the Club) does have one problem!  We have had trip chairs over past years that have done a fabulous job of running our trips.  But, ….over time there is some burnout involved.  WE NEED NEW VOLUNTEERS to step up, and also help your club.  These trips can’t run if we don’t have people willing to help out.  Please volunteer.  It’s not really all that hard, and we have training available

With all that being said. It’s time to end this column for this month.  Her’s hoping everyone has a terrific summer season, (where there is more to do than time available) enjoying all the family, friend, festivals and events that are so numerous in the summer.

 

Gerry Tillmann – BCSC President
