President's Message

    Hello OSTC Members!

    As we say goodbye to summer, I’m looking forward to cooler October days and the stunning fall colors. What better way to celebrate the season than with a weekend full of outdoor fun?

    Join us October 17–19 at Lake Louisa State Park in Clermont, FL for an unforgettable weekend of splashing, paddling, pedaling, hiking, and dancing!

    We still have a few spots left in the cozy, modern cabins—just $98 per person for two nights! Don’t miss this chance to unwind and connect with fellow adventurers while enjoying:

    •  Kayaking
    •  Biking
    •  Hiking
    •  And our legendary Saturday Night Dance Party & Pub Crawl!

     Orlando Ski and Travel Club - Lake Louisa Cabin Party Weekend 2025
    Bring your friends—everyone’s welcome to join the fun!

    Looking ahead to ski season…

    Have you ever skied in Canada? Our first trip of the season takes us to breathtaking Whistler, where the village will be lit up with festive Christmas cheer!

    This is a luxury ski experience, and we’re down to our last 3 spots—don’t wait! The deadline to sign up is September 20.

     Orlando Ski and Travel Club – Whistler, Canada 2025

    I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday weekend. Let’s keep the good times rolling—on the trails, on the slopes, and everywhere in between!

    See you out there,
    Steve Clark
    OSTC President

          Purchase your IKON and EPIC passes via our dedicated link, rather than directly with IKON or EPIC! It is not more expensive to purchase via our Group Link and you could (if offered), earn lodging credits coming back to you once you are signed up for a trip with us (payable at conclusion of trip)!

          This will help support Your Club rather than purchasing directly from IKON or Epic (which does not) as their renewal adverting most likely suggests. We are hard at work for next seasons trips and it’s shaping up to be around 3 EPIC resorts and 3 IKON.

          We are so excited about our trips being offered to you! Keystone is sold out, so act fast to reserve your spot on the remaining trips available!
