About the program:
The Club’s fabulous Trips Extravaganza will be on Tuesday, October 14th, at 7pm as part of the monthly meeting. The 2026 slate of overnight trips ranges from ever-popular trips such as Sunriver, the Ochocos (three, count them, three trips to the Ochocos!), Anthony Lakes, Camp Sherman, and Mt. Rainier. The lineup includes a couple trips that are not new to the Club but haven’t been offered in a few years: Truckee/Lake Tahoe and the Alpine Lakes area near Leavenworth. Sun Valley is on the docket twice, and folks will have the opportunity to go to Mt. Adams, the yurts near Sisters, and the Rendezvous Huts in Methow. Choices—it’s all about choices, and we’ve got them aplenty! Featured this year is a trip for 30 folks to the La Grande area. Come to the Extravaganza and hear Ken Barker expound on the virtues of this large group adventure to Eastern Oregon! Creating larger trips, with stays in motels, creates more opportunity for Club members to enjoy our beloved winter sport AND meet more Club members. Can’t go wrong with that. These trips are made possible by dedicated Club leaders who love to go, go, go in the snow, snow, snow. A few new leaders join the roster this year, thus building the ranks of trip leaders and ensuring future overnight trips continue to offer a variety of options. Kudos to all of them! For a preview, you can check out the full line-up here: https://onc-pdx.org/overnight-trips-2026-ski-season/ By now you know that sign-ups for trips will change this year as we’re shifting to a lottery-style sign-up. Each membership will be given a randomly drawn number and sign up time slot. They can use this time slot on Sunday, October 19th to select one trip of their choosing or opt to be on a waitlist. All remaining trips will be offered on a first come first served basis following the lottery process. Join us on Tuesday, October 14th at the Multnomah Arts Center to hear about all of these trips and learn your sign-up time slot (or wait to receive the information via email on the 15th). You may even win a door prize!
Hope to see you in person or online!
