What Activities Do Snowseekers Offer?
Our main activities are skiing and snowboarding. To that end we offer two western trips, sometimes three, each season. We also offer at least one Midwest trip. Because we have a mix of families, singles and couples we are able to get appropriate, comfortable accommodations for all trip participants at a great price. We have special relationships with some resorts and trip providers. Being one of the many affiliates of the Chicago Metropolitan Ski Council, our members also have opportunities for other activities and trips. As a year-round social group, we enjoy parties, picnicing, biking, golfing and other off season activities.
