President’s Message
Dear Amigos,
We had a smashin membership evening that touched on club updates, membership, upcoming events, and of course, our exciting trip lineup. A few highlights:
-
Socials & New Members – Our next Happy Hour is October 7 at BJ Brewhouse-The Rim, followed closely by Bats & Burgers (Fredericksburg) on October 18. Both are great opportunities to relax and meet new members with Oktoberfest vibes.
-
Trip Updates – Some ski trips are already “tracked out,” but don’t worry—if you’re interested in a sold-out trip, put your name on the waitlist. We’ll work with our tour operators to request more lodging if demand is strong. Other trips, like Alta, Banff, and the Napa Valley Bike Tour, still have space—so grab your pillow before they disappear!
-
Important Announcement – The Islands of New England expedition trip for summer 2026 has two departure dates-May 28 or June 19. If you are interested in this trip, please express your interest by signing up on our club website. As soon as the trip details are finalized, you’ll receive an email.

Thanks to everyone who came out. I look forward to seeing you at Happy Hour next month.
Sun, Ski and Good Times,
Brian Goebel
