Becoming a Member
OUR CLUB
If your family likes to ski and/or snowboard and appreciates cooperative, community living, the Lexington Ski Club might be for you. Currently, we are accepting applications for new members.
Club membership is limited to 55 families to ensure that all members are able to get accommodations at the lodge almost whenever they want. Member’s guests can usually be accommodated at the lodge as well, even during the busy ski season, for a low nightly rate. Several member families are retired seniors who often ski during the week.
​
Each member family adult contributes one work weekend at the Lodge to do repairs, upgrades, general maintenance and housekeeping. Six or seven work weekends are scheduled, about monthly, from spring to fall each year. Its a fun time to get to know your fellow club members and often to learn some new skills.
​
Membership provides a substantial value to our members, who pay no lodging fees. Annual dues are about the equivalent to or less than the cost of a single ski vacation week at a condo for a family of four.

The cancellation is a nominal fee, $10 per adult, if cancelled outside the cancellation window.

The Journey from Prospective Member to Full Member
To join the Lexington Ski Club, prospective members and their families must visit the Club twice during peak season weekends, attend a monthly business meeting between November and May, meet with the Membership Committee and the E-board, and have their membership intention announced in the Club's newsletter, The Yodeler. This process, which must be completed within two years, ensures prospective members fully understand Club operations and become acquainted with current members.
Leveraging Your Sponsors
Once you decide to become a member, you'll be assigned two Sponsor families to guide you, answer questions, reserve rooms, introduce you to members, and help secure discount tickets. Contact your Sponsors early to align schedules and avoid delays. Reservations for weekend stays are due by Monday. As a prospective member, you will pay a guest fee of $30 per adult per night, plus any meal fees, directly to your sponsors. Learn more.
