Therefore members of our Meet-Up group who don't pay the annual dues are considered guests at our General Meetings.  And, likewise with members of our Facebook Group.

Some People Are Sayin'....

Our club worked with the Washtenaw Ski Touring Club to create a special event for the holiday season at REI. It's where Sales meets
Education. We're goin't'
learn a lot.

Two annual club favorites are imminent.
The Warren Miller film and Xmas Caroling.
Watch Out!

The Roamin' Happy Hour moves
to a Wednesday in December.
Watch Out!

And, that's a busy night because it's

Hollywood!

Next Spring members of this club will sleep at the foot of Utah's most famous mountain. 

The one that  inspired Majestic Mountain of Hollywood's oldest logo.

It's called Ben Lomond Peak, and its tale of inspiration is told best by this hiking guide.

Ben Lomond came by its name from another pinnacle connection. 

It was named for the Scottish peak; Beinn Laomainn, which translates to Beacon Mountain.

A lot of things on this planet are named Ben Lomond, and many high things are called Beacon, but Ogden's mountain ranks just under the original in majestic recognition.
