A message from the president:

I am very happy to invite all of you to our next meeting on Thursday, October 17, 7:30p at the Syosset Woodbury Community Center. Ivan Albanese from Sno Haus will be our guest speaker. He will show us what is new for this year and how to maintain our equipment. This is a very good opportunity for you to ask questions about ski equipment without any sales pitch.

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Lois Robbins, one of the founders of our 50+ Ski Club. She was the head of our Trip Committee and organized many of our successful ski trips out west, here in the east and in Europe. Her off-season trips were also a highlight of our activities.

Dues for this coming year are due. Existing members please send a $30 check ($45 couples) made out to the 50 Plus Ski Club to Neal Pisanti, 10 Joyce Lane, Woodbury, NY 11797. Those of you who have not paid for last year should send a check for $60/$90. If you are two years in arrears you will regrettably be taken off our activity lists for skiing and biking.
-Gary Schorr, President

About our Club

The 50 Plus Ski Club was founded in 1988 to provide skiing and other activities for persons 50+ years of age. Most of our members live in either Nassau or Suffolk Counties with some members living in Westchester, Manhattan, or even farther away. Meetings are generally held once a month except during the summer. The main club activity is skiing but the club arranges other activities for its members, such as bicycling, our primary activity during the off season. In fact, some members do not ski at all, but join us on bike rides, or kayak outings.

Most of our ski trips are midweek when it is less crowded - either a day trip to the Catskill area resorts, or longer week trips to places like Maine, Vermont, or Colorado. Members enjoy the company of one another and appreciate the togetherness that develops on a trip. As we are not an overly large club, you will not get lost in a crowd. Some members take many trips with the club, while others may go on one ski trip a year, or just elect to participate in our bicycle outings.

The 50+ Ski Club is a member of the Metropolitan New York Ski Council MNYSC . As a member, we are entitled to various discounts on lift tickets and other events. See our webpage MNYSC News and Offers for more details.
