President Letter: 


Winter is finally here! Snow is falling and our local ski areas are working hard to get ready to open. It looks like we might be in for a snowy winter. 

We had a great turnout at our December Holiday . meeting. Kim Thayer, from Greek Peak, was here to get us up to date on Greek Peaks happenings. They are open already!

Your membership in the club is the best way to take advantage of all that the winter offers. Stay tuned for many days of skiing!

Happy Hour Recap!

Lunkenheimer Brewery

About a dozen FLSCers gathered at Lunkenheimer Brewing in Weedsport on Nov 19. It was packed on a Wednesday night! The group enjoyed good company, wood fired pizzas, good beer, and rock and roll Bingo. 

Holiday Party/Meeting Recap!


We had a great turnout with 60+ members present. There was plenty of good food, desserts, and door prizes. Kim Thayer from Greek Peak was present to give mountain updates. Big thanks to her husband Mike for his fabulous pulled pork!


OSC Team NASTAR 

invites FLSC Members to join them this winter!

Good day downhill skiers! While we are enjoying some great fall weather, it’s time to start thinking about winter!

Onondaga Ski Club will once again be participating in the Team NASTAR program at Labrador Mountain on Sundays in 2026. ALL levels of skiers are welcome!

Registration is due by December 15, 2025 and paid directly to Labrador.

Sundays include 5 Sunday all-day lift tickets and 6 races for $269. All ages can race, so bring a grandchild. Race days are January 11th through February 8th. There are two races on the last day.

Your participation includes a beer in the Puffin Bird after the race. OSC will provide pizza! It’s a great chance to connect with fellow skiers!

This is a great deal when compared to individual tickets ($89 per Sunday pass - $445 for 5 passes) and the NASTAR fees (Two Runs = $20, Additional Run $9, Unlimited Run Day Pass for NASTAR $30). The race is on a blue (intermediate) trail and you can have as much time as you need to get down the course.

We need one female per team, so we’d love more women to participate!
