Ski season just around the corner

Lynn Warren

With all the record-setting hot weather that we’ve had in the valley this year, it may be hard to think about snow and skiing, but hopefully good snow is in our future. So, now’s the time to dust off and tune up your skis!

PebbleCreek doesn’t have a ski club but many PebbleCreek skiers belong to the Valley of the Sun Ski Club (VSSC), which is open to all skiers and is just a short drive on Loop 303 to the Sun City West Foundation, located on the southwest corner of Stardust and RH Johnson Blvd. Meetings are held on the first Thursday of the month, and the kickoff meeting for the 2019-20 season is on Nov. 7.

The VSSC provides a great opportunity to ski and socialize with other active adults with similar interests and offers reasonably priced trips to some of the best ski areas in the West. For the upcoming season, great trips are planned for Aspen/Snowmass, Beaver Creek/Vail, Big Sky and Park City, and a few openings are still available. Visit the club website at vsscskiclub.com for more information and dinner reservation forms.
