ACTIVITIES
Taking advantage of warm weather, CMSC
clubs keep just as active in summer as they
do during ski season. Groups pack their
calendars with outdoor events, from camping
and canoe trips to bike rides, golf outings
Chicagoland Club 50 – Ski and Sports
and picnics. The following reports from
member clubs give a sampling of activities
planned for the off season.
Champaign Ski and Adventure Club
The members of our club are gearing up for another
season of canoe/kayak trips on local and out-of-state rivers.
Besides paddling trips, our club enjoys bike rides on paved
trails as well as mountain bike trails. Hiking is another
favorite activity, and members are invited to bring their dogs.
Camping and campfires is a very pleasurable experience in
our club. We go as much as possible. Sometimes we enjoy
rollerblading about town. To supplement these activities, we
Fort Wayne Ski Club often incorporate happy hours, house parties and cookouts
afterwards. (champaignskiclub.org)
Chicagoland Club 50 – Ski and Sports
If you’re 50 years old and love being active, you’ll find
Chicagoland Club 50 – Ski and Sports to be the perfect
choice for year-round activities. Summertime brings a host
of activities: Golfers meet weekly for nine holes and lunch,
bike rides each month May through September, canoeing/
kayaking, sailing, concerts at Millennium Park and Ravinia,
Cubs and Sox games, and a day at Arlington Park. We have
a monthly Sunday evening dinner at different restaurants in
Chicago or the suburbs. (ski50.com)
