J Membership J The Mogul Meister Ski Club is an volunteer organization that arranges ski trips for our members to resorts worldwide but we are much more: we also have a full slate of year round social and recreational activities. Based in White Plains, New York, the club's membership draws mainly from the tri-state area. The only requirements for membership in the club are that: (1) you be over 18 years of age and (2) have a love of skiing and the comradery and friendship that goes with it. Individuals younger than 18 can join with a family membership and must be accompanied by a parent on club outings. Don't worry about your ski skills. The club welcomes skiers of all abilities. We have members that never skied until they joined the club and a few people that jump off cliffs ( ON PURPOSE ) and everything in between.; indeed, joining the club is an excellent way to get serious about your skiing. The club advocates safe recreational alpine skiing. The club encourages members to improve their skiing technique through education and practice and discourages reckless skiing. The club also advocates for prudent natural resource management and continuous improvement of ski destinations. The club has an active roster of social events all year round, including happy hours, clam bake, baseball and football games, softball, outdoor concerts and festivals. The club has a web site and newsletter where you can find out about club activities and ski trips. Members can submit articles on skiing and snowboarding to the board for publication on the web site and newsletter. The annual club membership fee is $45. Membership entitles you to one vote on matters brought before the general membership and is required for participation in club outings lasting longer than three days. Non-members may go on weekend trips by paying a $25 non-member fee. "What I have found best about the club is that everyone here likes to ski. Before I joined, I used to try to convert people. What a drag – you have to wait for them, there is always the drama, hemming and hawing. You won’t find posers here – just people who like to ski." Do you think you might be a Mogul Meister? There is one way to find out. Individuals interested in joining the club are welcome to attend general meetings which are held the first and third Tuesday of every month, except during the summer when they are held on the first Tuesday. The club holds an Open House party on the first Thursday in September (annual dues are due September 1). The open house is an opportunity for members to reconnect and regroup after the withering heat of summer and make plans for the upcoming season. You can download a membership application here.
