Boeing Employees Ski Club
The Boeing Employees Ski Club exists to promote interest and
participation in the sport of snow skiing and boarding for Boeing
employees and their families. Our membership is comprised of
skiers and boarders of all ages and abilities. We traditionally
have four destination trips, one Midwest trip and a number of
non-skiing activities throughout the year. This year the club is
going to Steamboat (1/11-1/15), Jackson Hole (3/2-3/9), Copper
(2/20-2/24), Banff (1/26-2/2) and Granite Peak (2/8-2/10).

Champaign Ski and Adventure Club
The big news for our club this year is that our name has been
changed to better reflect the kinds of things that we do.
Formerly known as the Champaign Ski Club, the Champaign
Ski and Adventure Club will offer year-round activities like
kayaking, biking, canoeing and camping in addition to a full
season of skiing opportunities. This year’s trips include a
European trip and a warm weather trip to Puerto Rico. Monthly
happy hours and house parties are longstanding club traditions.

Chicago Friars Ski & Bicycling Club
The Chicago Friars is 40 years young this year and going
strong! We are an active club with a ski season full of Midwest
trips, CMSC races and at least one adventure out West. We
encourage and accept new CMSC racers and enjoy a wide
range of ski abilities on all of our trips. If you’re not a downhill
skier, we also have a number of XC skiers, as well as a full
range of social activities year-round, including theater/concert
nights, an annual chili cook-off, dinners out and wine and beer
tastings. Join us! (chicagofriars.com)
Elmhurst Ski Club
Elmhurst Ski Club was started in 1957 by a small group of
people who had met in high school. Now the club enjoys a
very wide variety of people. Regular event attendees range
from age 9 to 70 with a mix of single and married. Our
primary activity is skiing including one-day and week-long
ski trips. We also participate in CMCS weekend trips and
racing trips. Our destinations have varied from Canada
and the Western U.S. to Europe. If the weather cooperates,
we have a cross-country ski trip in the immediate area.
