CLUB FACTS
Founded in 1970, this club started when
students in a class at Timberline liked the camaraderie and fun
of skiing with an enthusiastic group, so decided to continue
skiing together, with the goal of continuing improvement of
their skiing ability.
EVENTS
Winter events include a season-opener at
Mt Hood, Sunday night skiing and midweek skiing at local areas,
cross-country skiing during the busy holiday season, weekend
trips to nearby resorts, “Ski With A Winner” trips (with a ratio
of 1 in-club instructor to every 7 participants), mostly to
“previously un-skied” major ski areas. Occasionally, a group
trip to a European ski resort is conducted. Summer activities
include Downhill Bike Blasts, Downriver Canoe trips, an
Irrigation Ditch Canoe Regatta, weekend hikes locally, midweek
biking-picnic rides, Halloween and New Year’s dance-socials, a
combination Floating Croquet Tournament and Wine Tasting tour,
annual September Reunion at Sisters, Oregon, and winding-up a
busy year with a “Farewell to the Beach” reunion in October.
MEETING
This laid-back club holds no formal
meetings, now has about 173 members, and depends upon
enthusiastic volunteers to create and lead some rather unique
group events. Dues are $12 per year.
