This change will start to take effect in June and should be completed by mid-August.

Change in Membership Dues |
|
Membership dues have been changed from $20 to $30 for the 2023-24 membership year. (We have had a $20 reduction in the standard $40 annual dues for a number of years.) Dues for the 2024-25 year will be $40.
The membership term is from May 1 to April 30. Anyone who joins or renews their membership within 60 days of May 1 will have their membership expire on April 30 of the following year.

Rewards Program to be Discontinued |
|
As we go into the new 2023-24 membership year on May 1, we will be discontinuing the Rewards program. Anyone with volunteer reward points will be able to redeem them until the Corn Roast on August 27. After this date, the A2 ski club will open a club store where different items can be purchased. Please contact Lisa Salisbury to redeem your points for merchandise and also find out how many you have. Click here to see the rewards flyer.

Sports
America offers us a portal for buying IKON and EPIC passes. See the links
below. We get a 6% rebate on your purchase price that is applied to the
cost of any ski trips you take next year. If you have questions, contact
Jim Kelly.
Please note that for some trips, including Snowmass/Aspen, buying lift tickets as part of the trip package, will be MUCH cheaper than buying an IKON pass.
