Got the Need for Speed?
Then join us for some racing fun!
We participate in a number of NYCDSC races every season plus an occasional OC Ski Club only race. All OC members and their children are welcome to participate. There is no cost to you other than your lift ticket.
Races typically take about two hours and the courses are placed on trails that most intermediate skiers/boarders can navigate. Most racers are alpine (downhill) skiers, but snowboarders and telemark skiers are welcome, as well.
