About NSC
The Nisei Ski Club is a non-profit organization founded in the late 1950's by a group of Japanese American Nisei (second generation) skiers interested in promoting the sport of skiing/snowboarding, friendship and fun within the community. The current membership consists of Japanese Americans (Nisei, Sansei, Yonsei) as well as other Asians and Non-Asians.
Membership
Our membership annually consists of over 200 members. While the majority of our members reside in the greater Bay Area, we also have members from Southern California, Washington, Colorado, New York, and Hawaii.
Winter Activities
During the winter months, Nisei Ski Club (NSC) concentrates on skiing and showboarding. The club organizes several weekend (2 day) charter bus trips to various resorts in the Lake Tahoe region. Each year, we organize a week long ski trip. Past trips have been to resorts such as Jackson Hole, Whistler/Blackcomb, Aspen, Telluride, Vail, Sun Valley, and Lake Louise. We also plan long weekend ski trips. Past excursions have been to Mount Bachelor, Mammoth Mountain and Park City by plane, bus, and rail. We also host a number of ski related activities such as outings to Warren Miller film nights, boot fittings and equipment tune-ups at local ski shops.
Summer Activities
During the summer months, NSC has a variety of summer activities such as bike rides, hikes, kayaking, dances, picnics, beach parties, and bowling.
