Orange Council of Ski Clubs by Judy Thurman, President Since May 5, 1971, Orange Council of Ski Clubs has been addressing the issues of skiers in and around Orange County and the Southern California area. Originating from the Southern Council to better serve the high concentration of skiers and snowboarders in the “OC”, this motto was established - “Toward Better Skiing”. We are and always have been an active member of the Far West Ski Association and we are also a member of the National Ski Council Federation. Orange Council offers great travel adventures, supports disabled skiers programs, including USARC, charities, and continue to be informed on public affairs issues. Some of the other charity and community programs that our ski clubs support are the Mammoth Mountain Resort Patrol Memorial Fund, Troops Overseas, Free Wheelchair Mission and many other programs. Orange Council and its ski clubs travel programs offer a variety of different ski trips. Our ski clubs schedule weekend ski trips to Mammoth Mountain, from December to March, and if the snow is really good many of our members might be see skiing Mammoth on July 4. If weekend ski trips are not enough for you, we also have many of our clubs running week long trips to places like Telluride, Aspen, Vail, and international trips. We offer something for everyone who loves to ski. And, for those who love to race, Orange Council has a very strong race team, and is a member of the Schusski Race League, with four races held at Mammoth Mountain between December, 2011 - April, 2012. With the Far West Racing Championships in April. If you are interested in racing for Orange Council, please contact, Maxine Hanlon - VP Racing at maxch@prodigy.net. Each year, the council members participate in the Far West Ski Association Ski Week. This year, we will be traveling to beautiful Jackson Hole, January 28 - February 4, 2012. This is an annual event that brings together all the ski councils: approximately 500-600 people. This is opportunity for our clubs within the council to go on these trips and meet other skiers within the eleven ski councils. The week is filled with lots of skiing, après parties, racing dinners and camaraderie. The FWSA Week has always been a fantastic event and not to be missed! For information on any of our ski trips please contact Sheila Van Guilder, V.P. of TRAVEL, svanguil@ yahoo.com. Currently, Orange Council has eleven ski Can’t wait for the snow!
