by Armand Gutierrez, President

It’s June and the start of the 2023-2024 NSC season. Our recent elections resulted in several changes to the board – three board members “retired” from the board and we have one former president joining as a board member and two new board members. Thanks to all of you that took the time to vote, and you can read the full election results in Jeanne Katsuro’s article.

NSC Annual Membership Meeting and Luau Picnic

The NSC Annual Membership Meeting and Luau Picnic is scheduled for July 22nd/ Saturday so mark your calendars. As usual the club will be providing beverages and a lunch entree and you can bring a favorite side dish. Details will be on the Picnic Flyer.

Mt. View Obon Festival

The festival will be held 15-16 July so mark your calendars for this annual event. In the past organizers of the festival have asked NSC for volunteers to work the various booths (especially the Beer Booth). Well, this year they have reached out to Karen Soo to see if NSC would be able to provide volunteer support for this year. Details are still forthcoming but keep the dates open if you would like to volunteer.

FWSA 90th Annual Convention

The FWSA 90th Annual Convention is being held from 15-18 June, in Boise, ID. I’ll be attending (16-18 June) in two capacities: 1) to assist Debbie Stewart (VP International Travel) with the Silent Auction and her Snow Sports Leadership Academy presentation, and 2) to provide NSC representation.

2024 NSC Jackson Hole

The 2024 NSC Ski Week will be at Jackson Hole from 27 January – 3 February. Currently I’m waiting for the lodging rates to become available and for Sports America to send me a proposal. I’m anticipating 70+ signups since Jackson Hole is a very popular ski resort.
