How do I sign up for week trips?
Week trips are typically announced at the End of Season party and open for registration mid/late Summer. Once the flyers are posted on the website, you can register for the trip by printing and completing the registration form, signing the waiver form, and submitting your deposit to the designated trip leader.
What if I don’t have a roommate for a week trip?
We often have ‘single’ members sign up for week trips. It’s a great way to make new friends!
When this happens, we do our best to match you with a compatible member of the same gender. We can also put you in touch with that member before the trip.
You might also have the option to pay extra as a ‘single supplement’ to have your own room (subject to availability).
Racing
Can I join the Ski Team if I’ve never raced before?
Any active AE Ski Club member can join the ski team no matter what your level of skiing or boarding is. The CSC racing program is a fun recreational league, we have all abilities and ages with women’s and men’s divisions.
I can’t be there every Monday night, can I still join the Race Team?
Absolutely! We race for 8 weeks, the results are calculated based on your top 6 races. The club will offer you a discount if you participate in at least 4 races per season.
How much does it cost to race every week?
The cost of racing is just the price of a night lift ticket which can also be used to ski Mount Southington before and after racing.
