Space City Ski and Adventure Club

THANK YOU FOR VISITING OUR NEW WEBSITE
MEMBERS, REMEMBER TO LOGIN !!!

We are a non-profit, member run, Sports and Adventure Club operating in Houston, Texas for 50+ years. We offer 8 - 12 winter and summer trips per year, all over the world.

Our social, sports, cultural, and charitable events fill the calendar year-round. From September to May we have fun monthly general meetings normally held the 2nd Monday of the month. Happy Hours are the 4th Thursday of each month, year-round.

Popular local Houston Area activities this year were monthly dance lessons, monthly dinner gatherings, theater outings, and winery/brewery tours. Activities are run by volunteers, if there is something you are interested in doing, make a suggestion and we will consider offering it.

Initial trip sales generally start in August and sell briskly, so act quickly to avoid landing on a wait-list. Trip participation requires membership but it is only $40 for an Individual for an entire season. Have a look around and we hope you decide to Join Us. If you need some more time to decide, Click "Add Me to your Mailing List" (Top Left Corner)

NO GENERAL MEETINGS UNTIL SEPTEMBER

Our next general meeting will be on September 13, 2021. However we have fabulous activities all summer long. Check the VP Programs sections below to sign up for upcoming activities.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT BEVERLY ROBERTS

Hello Friends

Spring is here! To my amazement, just about everything obliterated by the February freeze has re-sprouted. My roses are just going crazy! It makes me happy and hopeful to see regrowth and beautiful blooms. And it also made me really happy to see sooooo many people turn out for the April club meeting. I saw dear friends that I haven’t seen at all, or only on Zoom, for almost a year. Most people are ‘vaxed up’ and happy that their antibody superpowers are fully kicked in.

Well, speaking of Zoom, I am pretty ‘Zoomed-out’ after the TSC virtual Bidfest sessions on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, April 9-11. But it was worth it –we are excited about the TSC selection of wonderful ski and adventure trips for 2022 and 2023. Check out Marsha’s article for the particulars. And you already know about the full roster of 2022 trips. Our 2022 trip leaders will soon begin planning and advertising for their trips. Information will be posted to the website as details are nailed down. I am so ready to restart travel, and the first steps are underway!

I’m also so ready to enjoy the dinners, activities, and happy hours that Lynn has scheduled. She is busy helping us restart the socializing that we have all missed so much.

This information will also be on the website and will be included in the weekly eblasts. Be sure to check both for all the updates. In the meantime, go out and smell your roses!
