The year was 1981 when a handful of intrepid
Orange County skiers founded the Fountain Valley Ski Club. Mostly members of
the Los Caballeros Racket Club in Fountain Valley, they had been driving to
Rosemead to participate in monthly bus trips to Mammoth Mountain sponsored by
the So Cal Edison Ski Club. At the first club meeting, anyone who either knew
how to ski, had an interest in the sport or wanted to learn was welcome - a
friendly invitation that is still extended today.
Over the years, snow sports have continued to be the club's focus, with varied
year-round activities such as tennis, golf, bowling, camping, bicycling,
rafting, wine tasting, beach parties and the arts. The monthly Bota newsletter
serves to keep the membership abreast of club happenings. Since that first
meeting with 125 participants, FVSC has maintained a dedicated core of members,
operating like an extended family of friends.
The club's trip format has remained constant, though prices have risen
- in the early 80's 2-day trips were sold for $85 and Mammoth lift tickets were
only $19!
Each year the club features a week-long trip to a mountain outside of
California. The list below recaps the terrific resorts we have visited
throughout the west. Ever since the first trip to Sun Valley for $595, the
club's aim has been to provide great value for a week of top-level winter fun.
