Space City Ski & 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)

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT LYNN BURCH


Greetings SCSC’ers!

Thanks everyone for coming to the March meeting and electing next year’s officers. 

Some of the officers are staying the same while Lori Aubrecht is the new secretary replacing Sandra Stolnacke and Rita Cardenas is moving up from Dot of Trips to VP of Trips. 

Thank all of the present and new officers for volunteering their time and effort to run SCSC.  It takes a village!

Now that we have determined to keep Space City & Adventure Club the same name, let’s look for other ways to bring in new members.  A redesign of our website highlighting other activities we have, might be one way.  Please let Susan Granbery or one of the Executive Committee if you have any ideas.

Bidfest is April 14-16 in DFW area where we choose the trips for the Texas Ski Council.  Rita, Pat and I will be talking to the different vendors about other shorter trips in the US as well.  There are a couple of places we are working on now and hope to be able to present them soon.

Welcome to next year’s officers and I look forward to working with everyone to have another great year of trips and fun activities.


Lynn Burch

President
