2020-2021 General Membership Meetings

We hope to hold club meetings this season, but it will depend on the guidelines that Ft. Myer has in place, and on the wisdom of hosting group gatherings where social distancing is a challenge. Monthly
club meetings are held on Tuesdays at 7 PM in Fort Myer's Patton Hall
(the building formerly known as the Officers Club). (Exception is the
picnic which is at the Spates Community Club.) Meetings are held from
September through April, but we don't have a February meeting as the
weather is a risk and many of us are off on ski trips anyway! We have
no summer meetings other than our annual picnic. Here are the tentative dates; most are on
the 2nd Tuesday of the month:
▪ August 22, 2020 (Saturday) – Picnic - Now Cancelled
▪ September 15, 2020 – Trip Signups
▪ October 13, 2020 – Oktoberfest theme
▪ November 10, 2020 – (theme TBD)
▪ December 8, 2020 – Bread for the City campaign
▪ January 12, 2021 – Two Top Mountain Adaptive Sports Foundation
▪ March 9, 2021 – St Patrick’s Irish Menu & Wearing of the Green
▪ April 13, 2021 – Disabled Sports USA campaign; Council election
▪ July xx, 2021 (date TBD) – Picnic - noon to 4pm at Ft. Myer's Spates Community Club
Our
meetings provide lots of complimentary hors d'oeuvres (essentially dinner) and a cash bar.
New members are always welcome. Just let the welcome desk know you're
new! Most meetings have a fun theme and club business is
discussed, as well as (of course) upcoming ski trips. Door prizes are
offered in a 50-50 raffle drawing, with the club's half of the proceeds
going right back into buying more prizes for future meetings. Everyone
can socialize, exchange photos from the latest trips, and share
stories. Trip leaders are present, so you can sign up for trips or
discuss trip details. Meeting themes have included a fashion show with
the latest skiwear, ski safety, conditioning exercises, new ski
equipment, costume contests, and ski trivia contests.
