New Year's Day Ski and Chili Party |
Sunday |
January 1, 2012 |
Swain Resort (in the room above the rental shop) | This year’s annual Chili Party drew 40 hungry people down to Swain. Actually, it was chili and soup along with tasty finger foods. With skiing conditions less than outstanding it was nice to see such a gathering of club members wanting to socialize. Larry S. and Nancy "O" provided the chili while Shirley P. made Tortellini soup and Terry S. bean soup. Bev and Bill M. who chaired the event want to thank Joy and Larry S., Betty G., Carolyn and Nick S., Carol B. and everyone else who helped with the set-up and clean-up. We very much appreciate RSC member's generosity. We ARE a great organization! ***Terry S.*** |
| Holiday Party and 75th Anniversary Celebration | Thursday | December 8, 2011 | Burgundy Basin Inn 1361 Marsh Road, Pittsford, 14534 (between Rt. 31 and Rt. 96) |
Another great Holiday Party was attended by 171 members and guests, a
record turnout. Skip M. and Charlie S. resplendent in their Santa hats gave away lots of gifts to lucky prize winners.
Skip and Charlie have chaired this event for 10 years. The staff at Burgundy Basin did an outstanding job. The 75th
anniversary of our club was celebrated at this event. In 1936 there were only four other ski clubs in this country. Bill
P. chaired a committee to plan the program. He was aided by Joe and Marcia R., Mac W., Diane H., and Bob P. |
| General Meeting | Thursday | November 10, 2011 | Green Lantern, Fairport (One East Church St. - Just east of Rt. 250) |
The November 10, 2011 meeting at The Green
Lantern Inn hosted 76 members. The meal was very good as usual, and once again there was ice cream instead of cookies.
Hopefully, the February 16 meeting will be back to cookies for dessert. |
| Pig Roast | Saturday | October 1, 2011 | Braddock Bay Park Lodge and Pavilion Park entrance is off East Manitou Rd. Directions: Take Lake Ontario State Pkwy to East Manitou Rd. Turn North on E. Manitou and the park road runs off of the West side of East Manitou Rd. |
On what was forecasted to be one of the worst weather days of the year the RSC held their annual Pig Roast. But, lo and behold the Ski Gods looked down and said “Cease and desist” and so it happened. On a cloudy, breezy and a bit cool, but dry day at the Braddock’s Bay Park in Greece over 100 members and guests enjoyed another friendly and tasty pig roast. The beverages never ran out and the food catered by Old Mill Catering and our own Nancy P. (hors d’oeuvres, beans, sauerkraut and the desserts) was delicious. The piggy arrived all golden brown and steaming hot. The usual “vultures" formed around the sleeping pig, swooping in to pick tasty morsels as Tom fought them back to carve the pig for delivery to the ready group. Thanks to Nancy P. for organizing and providing much of the food for the event. Additional thanks to Bev M. for providing the decorations and setting up and Bill M. for his additional help in setup and serving, and to Bob P, Monica B, Fritz H, Marilyn R, Bob W, Nancy O, Brooks L, Terry S and anyone else I forgot who came early and stayed late to set up and clean up. So thanks again to Nancy P. and all who worked and enjoyed. ***Jim P.*** (Note from the club: And thanks to Jim P. for all of his help too!) |

| Summer Picnic | Thursday | August 4, 2011 | Webster Park (White House - 1100 East Lake Road. At the intersection of Rt 104 and Holt Road turn North on Holt Road. Take Holt Road to the end - Lake Road. Turn left (west) and then turn right into the White House road.) |
Mother Nature looked fondly upon the Rochester Ski Club’s annual summer picnic this year. With the rainy June and the extremely hot July we couldn’t have asked for a nicer day. Light winds off the lake with temperatures in the middle 80’s made this quite an enjoyable day. (Organized this year by Bill and Shirley P. everything went off without a hitch --- except Bill couldn’t turn off the northerly breeze that blew the cooking smoke into the crowd. Oh well!). 108 club members attended the picnic this year partaking in fine food, drink and conversation. Several club members stood by and worked the grill continuously, while the interior crew kept the food tables stocked with a variety of food brought by club members and also provided by the club. The official start of this affair was 3:00 PM and went strong until about 8:00 in the evening. A display of upcoming club ski trips was provided to remind those that might put off making decisions that the sign-up deadlines are only a few months away. Special thanks to all club members that helped before, during or after the picnic to make this once again another great club success. There were too many helping out to list each one here, but never the less all volunteer work was greatly appreciated by attending club members. Thank you to all. ***Bill P.*** |

Midvale Country Club 2387 Baird Road, Penfield (Between Rte. 441 and Whitney Road) |
This was our 4th year at Midvale Country Club and the 4th year Georgie S. has chaired the event! It was, of course, another lovely Spring Banquet, both outside and inside. Many thanks to Georgie and her able assistant for this event - Terry S. The 'usual' ... around 160 RSC members and guests, attended which made for a lively cocktail hour and enjoyable evening. After the hors d’oeuvres, dinner, and dessert (once again delicious), RSC president, Dick Clark kicked off the program with introductions. Nancy P. gave an update on the upcoming 2012 trips. Nancy O. presented membership pins to a number of new members and then entertained us with the yearly baggie awards. Once again in a delightful turn around, Nancy O was also presented with a “baggy”. It was a great way to wrap-up the 2011 ski season. ***Bev M.*** | |
