May is here and that means it’s time to bring an end to the NSC 2023-2024 season. This was an
exciting year with decent snowfall in Tahoe, numerous non-ski events planned
for the coming season, and a few accomplishments for last year:

  • Mah Jong tutorial and play
  • Bocce Ball at Lake Almaden Courts
  • Annual Luau and Membership Picnic
  • 65th Anniversary Dinner
  • Bike ride at Shoreline
  • Pickleball event
  • Jackson Hole Ski Week

Beginning this month you can take advantage of the $5 membership discount if you sign up and submit your membership form by May 31st.  Please submit your application to Tina Woo (Membership Chairperson).

The board has been meeting frequently because life with NSC does go on.  Plans are in the making for our annual Luau and Membership Picnic in July, our ski week trip to Sun Peaks (2025), and a few other events that are scheduled for the remaining of the year.

2025 NSC Ski Week

The 2025 NSC Ski Week will be at Sun Peaks, BC from 25 January to 1 February. So mark your calendar and start planning on a ski week to Canada’s second largest resort with 4,700 skiable terrain acres. Also, check your passport’s expiration date. Sports America has posted the Epic/Ikon links for the 2024-2025 season and are offering a 6.5% trip rebate if you purchase the passes from Sports America and go on the Sun Peaks trip:

Board Nominations & Elections

The nominations process is nearly complete and the next step is elections. The elections designee (that would be Karen Soo) has indicated there were no new nominations; therefore, the slate will consist of the incumbents that decided to return to the board (there was one non-returning board member). It is important that you do vote because your vote tells the board that you do appreciate the volunteer work performed by members of the board, so please take the very short time needed to cast your vote. The election ballot will be distributed in the coming weeks.
