President Letter: 


I hope all had a good Holiday and I wish everyone a very Happy New Year. 

This ski season has started off better than the last few years. Our trips are full, and we are still hoping to add more events, so keep checking your e-blasts for more info. 

We had a great time at our December Holiday Party. I have enjoyed being a member of this club for many years and over those years this club has grown to be more than just a ski club. I also think, that with help from our members, our club will continue to grow.

Please let us know if you have any ideas. 

Hope to see you on the slopes


Bob Sloan

A huge Thank You from the Scholarship Committee for your generous donations. We sent checks totaling $1200 to Auburn High School, Auburn Middle School, and Union Springs High School for the 2025-2026 ski season. The three clubs combined have about 110 members and appreciate the Finger Lake Ski Club’s support for these young skiers. In turn, these skiers also support our local Ski Slopes so it’s a winning situation all around. Keep taking your recyclables to Frosted Nickel in Auburn. And we still have luggage tags, bottle openers, and stickers available.

Thanks again, 

Midge Fricano and Chris Christensen


All proceeds to benefit the Scholarship Fund for our local school's ski clubs

Recycle your bottles and cans at The Frosted Nickel located at 28 Clark Street, Auburn (behind St. Mary’s) 

Bring your returnables in and tell them it’s for the FLSC

5¢ really adds up!
