Activities
Prior to COVID 19, when the Snowchasers weren’t skiing, we would gather for wine tasting, hiking, bicycling, concerts, theatre trips or anything else that sounded like fun. When restrictions are fully lifted we hope to restart our activity schedule.
The Snowchasers ski race team participates in recreational ski racing through Open League Racing (OLRC) a part of the Bay Area Snowsports Council (BAC) and Far West Ski Association (FWSA). More information can be found on our Racing page.
Travel
Members of the Snowchasers enjoy participating in the various trips offered by the FWSA including an annual weeklong trip to a ski resort west of the Rockies in North America. These trips typically include lodging, discounted lift tickets, optional ski races, a picnic, parties, and a banquet. Air and ground transfer options are available. Mini-week ski trips are also available. FWSA also offers International Ski Trips with optional one or two week extensions as well as Scuba/Snorkel Dive Trips. In the past FWSA has also offered Cruises and Adventure trips. Here is a link to the FWSA travel page with more information.
The BAC has also offered various ski and travel opportunities. Here is a link to BAC travel page.
History
The Snowchasers ski club was started in 1983 when several skiers found their mates at the Rusty Bindings singles ski club and got married. Suddenly, they were no longer welcome in the singles ski club they had been in, so they started their own club, the Snowchasers, welcoming singles, couples, families, anyone who wanted to join! We have a History documenting the Snowchasers Ski Club, click here.
