Welcome to the Sly Fox ski club web site!
The Sly Fox Ski Club was founded in 1967. We are a year-round ski, snowboarding and social club for active adults.
We offer sports-oriented adults the opportunity to participate in recreational activities in a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.
Year-round, we enjoy camaraderie in sports and social activities that mainly revolve around the outdoors.
Our club members are active adults ages 21 to 70+. Single and married, from all walks of life. Abilities range from beginners to expert skiers and snowboarders. Whatever your skiing or snowboarding ability, there are members with similar abilities and interests to accompany you on and off the hill.
Because of our group buying power and camaraderie, we’re sure you will appreciate the affordability and unique nature of our club.

Enjoy!

Happy New Year Everyone,
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. Both Sam and I had a busy one but truly enjoyed it even though my nephew was deployed to Afghanistan in the middle of November. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the service men, women and their families.
There is some important news concerning the BEAVER CREEK TRIP, March 24-31. The last week of December, Sam had to drop some spots on the airline to prevent any penalties. THERE ARE SOME SPOTS OPEN FOR THE TRIP WITH AIR; YOU MUST SIGN UP SOON TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT ON THE TRIP. Unfortunately when you delay there comes a point where the trip is closed or it would cost a premium or simply be impossible to add onto a trip. It is a premier ski area and your lift ticket also includes VAIL. You will have so much to ski and you will enjoy the beautiful vistas of the mountains. Any questions, contact Sam Fontaine, samfont@athenet.net or call him at 920-337-0975.
The other ski trip news is as follows, STEAMBOAT AND BIG SNOW PRE-TRIP MEETING WILL BE HELD ON JAN. 4, 2012 AT THE BAR on Lynndale, Appleton. They will answer all your questions and have additional information. Join the fun.
The meeting on December 7th and the Christmas Party on December 14th were well attended. Sports Medicine Center, Dr. Tim Mologne gave a great informational meeting on sports medicine. We all know about the joint issues we can or do experience. We really appreciate his time and knowledge. Then on December 14th, there were 58 of us that celebrated the holidays at the Red Ox Supper Club. Kerri Scheuler did a great job organizing the night. We had donations of food for the local food pantry, a 50/50 raffle that benefited not only the winner but the Salvation Army with a sizable amount. We had great fun with the gift exchange and were thrilled with the gifts. Many of us will have our thirst quenched. The Ugly Sweater contest made Julie Buechner very happy with her certificate for 2012/2013 Sly Fox Membership paid. She won hands down by popular demand especially when she shook her beads on her sweater. Everyone will have a full year to try and top her unique sweater and give her some competition.
Thank you again for all of your participation in our meetings and events. I also want to thank all the Board members and Volunteer committee members for their dedication to their position. Everyone Join in the fun at our scheduled monthly meetings, they are also listed in the website along with our Happy Hour locations on Fridays. We also have openings for our MARQUETE MOUNTAIN weekend trip on FEB. 17-19th. It is close to an all inclusive trip, lodging at the Ramada downtown, breakfasts, lunches on the hill, dinner on Saturday night, and munchies on the way up and back home with beverages. Lisa Breu is the trip leader and does a great job. Sign up and join in the fun.
To the Summit,
Deb
