      Euchre is Back!

      Monthly Euchre Night is back on October 25 at a
      new locatio
      n:

      Aubrees
      2122 Whittaker Rd Ypsilanti, MI 48197

      It will be the third Friday of every month in November - May.

      Terrace Inn 2025

      The annual Terrace Inn weekend is February 7-9, 2025. The Terrace Inn has new owners and as a result, some costs, policies, and deadlines are different than what you may be used to.  

      Signups will begin November 14 at the XC kickoff.   Signups will CLOSE on December 15, 2024. We must turn names and rooms in earlier than usual this year, so you will have to commit quickly. Additionally, the normal trip cancellation policy will now have to be enforced.  

      The trip is a club favorite and usually sells out.   Traditionally, we downhill ski at Nubs Nob on Friday, Boyne Highlands on Saturday and Boyne Mountain on Sunday. The XC and snowshoe people generally make it up on the fly, as does the shopping contingent. Full details are available here.
