Our March meeting was at McNamara's in Donelson where our members shared all the fun things that happened on the Steamboat and Telluride trips. As a bonus we got to listen to some live Irish music!

If you missed this meeting, be sure to join us next month in Green Hills!

In late February we visited Telluride and were blessed with gorgeous sunshine almost every day. Is it any wonder this is one of our club's favorite resorts?!

In early February we took a group to Steamboat and had an outstanding time. We had a great welcome party and a couple of other group dinners included. Steamboat is a club favorite and if you missed this trip, you missed out!

With ice still lingering around much of the area, our Gastronomic Gallivant saw a smaller-than-usual group but these gals still had a great time and enjoyed some wonderful food.

At our February meeting we welcomed back the folks who went on our Winter Park and Keystone trips and loved catching up on all the inside scoop from those trips. Some of our folks still had no power after the prior week's ice storm so they were glad to join us in the warmth. Miss this meeting? Join us next month in Donelson!

Our second trip of the season was to Keystone, a place we hadn't visited in over 10 years! While the weather started out very cold, by mid-week it was glorious. Thanks to our "local" guide, Robert Johnson (in red), who gave us the inside scoop on the mountain. We won't wait 10+ years to go back!

We kicked off our 2026 ski trips with a visit to Winter Park, Colorado on January 4-11. Over 20 of us escaped the Nashville humidity for the clean mountain air. While we were there we met up with members of some other Crescent Ski Council clubs which made for an even bigger party! See the Photo Gallery tab for even more pictures!

Our January meeting was at Crow's Nest in Green Hills. We had a good turnout despite some of our folks already out on the slopes in Winter Park. Our monthly meeting is a great time for members, their guests, and visitors alike to get acquainted with other folks in the club, so be sure to join us in February for the next meeting.

On January 2nd we braved the drizzle and took in the lights at the Cheekwood estate. Thousands of lights both inside and outside decorated the mansion and grounds. There are loads more photos in the Photo Gallery.

We kicked off the New Year with a Hangover Hike at Longhunter State Park. While most of our hikes begin early in the morning, we made allowances for the previous night and eased into this one mid-morning.

We had over 30 club members attend the Crescent Ski Week at Steamboat in early December. This camp is a great chance to start the season early. The package price includes 5 full-day ski lessons, several lunches, a welcome reception, a dinner, and swag to bring home. If you missed it this year, be ready to sign up in June for next year's trip!

On Sunday, November 16th, several of our members hiked at Radnor Lake and then headed over to Robert J's house for a delicious brunch. Thanks to Robert and his lovely wife for feeding us! There are more pictures in the Photo Gallery.

Did you know a number of our current and past members play golf together most weeks? While they usually stick to Metro Nashville public courses, on November 14th they headed down to Fall Creek Falls to play. It was a gorgeous day and they had a lot of fun!

Our November Membership Meeting was at Karrington Rowe in Brentwood. We had a fantastic turnout as folks are really starting to get excited about the upcoming ski season! Missed this meeting? Be sure to join us next month in Franklin.

We kicked off November with the Wine Down Main Street event in Franklin, where we got to sample wines at several restaurants in the area. Since it was her birthday, Judy got two samples!

On Saturday, October 18th we hiked from Stone Door to Greeter Falls. We had a very nice turnout and great weather!

Some of us spent a weekend at Charit Creek in October. We had a great time hiking, disconnecting and enjoying the great outdoors. The night view without any artificial lights is a wonder to behold!

Our October meeting was at Dalt's on White Bridge Road. We enjoyed getting together and discussing upcoming events as well as our upcoming ski trips! Be sure to join us next month because the meetings get more fun as ski season approaches!
