ARIZONA SKI COUNCIL

by Wanda Himler,
ASC President
The Arizona Ski Council
(ASC) was formed in 1991 and
represents two active ski/activity
clubs, totaling around 500 members, serving skiers, snowboarders,
hikers, bikers, social members
and all types of adventurers. The
clubs are not limited to activities
in the United States but all over
the world. Our clubs share reciprocity between each other, so
you only need membership in
one of the clubs, to enjoy the
benefits of both.
The council and our clubs
typically plan activities throughout the year, but this year was
brought to a halt with the COVID19 lockdown and social distancing. We did participate in a number of ski trips and various
activities, until everything started
shutting down. With caution, we
have now started providing and
participating in outdoor activities;
such as kayaking, hiking, camping
and river rafting. If it's active in
Arizona...we will be there.
Clubs that participate in
ASC are the Phoenix Ski Club
and the Scottsdale Sea & Ski
Club. Follow the individual links
for each club.

The Phoenix Ski Club
(PSC) - is much more than just
skiing. PSC is an active adult social club, whose focus is on going
full speed ahead with year-round
activities. PSC is always open to
new suggestions for events, activities and adventures. They pride
themselves in offering a variety
of activities designed to appeal to
everybody. Traveling out of the
country or down the road to bike,
hike, sail or ski, this group focuses on connecting with new
friends and experiences. PSC is
also involved in a number of
charities.
The Phoenix Ski Club's
newest initiative is offering
family events to engage kids in
winter activities. The hope is to
engage more parents to get their
kids involved in skiing. Come be
a part of our group. Come Safari
with us in Tanzania in 2021.
The Scottsdale Sea & Ski
Club (SSSC) - is oriented towards active adults 21 years or
older. SSSC provides year-round
activities. Snow skiing and
snowboarding is one of our passions. SSSC also provides many

events like hiking, biking, rollerblading, tubing, theme parties,
camping, road trips, day and
weekend outings, out of town
trips, art walks, wine tasting,
boating, water and jet skiing,
scuba diving, kayaking, paddleboarding, as well as, week-ly
happy hours and monthly dinners at local restaurants. They
are a club on the move. Watch
out for the SSSC events. Look for
exciting trips like a Greece Mama
Mia Cruise, coming up. Don''t
just dream of having an exciting
life. Join the Scottsdale Sea & Ski
Club and make it happen.
The Scottsdale Sea & Ski
Club has a cell phone app, for
your convenience. Download it!.
Their website has the downloading instructions.
