I guess I am stating the obvious when I say that this year has been far from normal in so many ways. I received a report from our FWSA group policy insurance broker that the ski clubs in the
group have reported an average 60% drop in membership this year. The NSC membership is down about 42% from last year…better than average, so a heartfelt thanks to all of you loyal members! We recognize that you are not receiving the benefits that you would get in a normal year of activities, so your loyalty is truly appreciated.
With the reduction in membership, the club will have an operating loss this year due to fixed costs such as insurance, website hosting, state license fees, etc. As you may know, during a normal year the all-volunteer board members are rewarded with free memberships. However, for this unique year the ten board members will each pay the normal $30 dues, which will help reduce the deficit by $300!
Happy Holidays to everyone!
