Chicago Metro Ski Council
|
|
We have joined the Chicago Metro Ski Council (CMSC). This is in addition to our membership in the Detroit Metro Ski Council.
Why did we do this? There are a lot of good reasons for joining, but the primary thing is that we get more access to trips. As a club, we do well with our own ski trips. We tend to sell out quickly and don’t know of a lot of people having to look elsewhere for ski trips. We are, however close to the limit of what we can handle, with our constraint being trip leaders.
Some of our most popular trips recently have been the “non-ski” trips, including France, New York, and Portugal. These tend to sell out in a day or two. We plan to continue to offer these at the club level, but our membership in the CMSC allows our members to access many more trips of this nature in addition to numerous ski trips. If you look on the CMSC website and filter the trips by “adventure trips”, you will see that there are currently 9 of these, including 2 bike and barge trips in Europe, a trip to Amsterdam, a trip to French Polynesia and a houseboat trip in Northern Wisconsin. Gather up three of your friends and see the world!
