Its mission is to promote the excitement and camaraderie of skiing and snowboarding to everyone regardless of ability, age or economic background. CMSC member clubs hail from as far west as Nebraska and as far east as Ohio. Michigan and Wisconsin are on the north, Springfield and St. Louis on the south. The majority of CMSC clubs is concentrated in the Chicago metropolitan area. Run by energetic volunteers generous with their time and talent, the year-round social and ski activities of each club are limited only by their members’ imagination. CMSC has a ski club that will suit anyone’s lifestyle, whether a person is married or single, a single parent or married with children, over 21 or over 70, a novice or expert skier, is physically challenged, has an unlimited budget or is budget-minded, is active or just enjoys being around active people. Formed in 1957 as a non-profit corporation, CMSC in its constitution THANK YOU TO OUR provides for an annual election of officers. Each member ski club sends ADVERTISERS delegates to the Council’s meetings. CMSC’s magazine, Ski & Ride Club Guide, is published in the spring and fall.
