Whaddup NS,
I'm one of the presidents of the ski and board club at UNH (University of New Hampshire)
After a couple of years of stalking other clubs instagrams and facebook pages I figured why not take it here to get inspiration/input from you guys. Would be sick to hear from other exec members of other clubs and what you guys do for fund raising, events, partying, etc..
For context here's what our club does:
Dues are $100, covers 10 trips on a coach bus (no lift ticket). Most of the time we have 2 busses (110 kids) except for blackout dates on the pass we use, then we usually run one. We usually get like 200 students registered each year, most of which are freshman since freshman can't have cars here. Barely any upperclassmen are apart of the club...
We get funding for the club through the campus recreation department and we operate the same as a D3 sports club (kind've a bummer and eliminates being able to have fun unless we're breaking rules and putting the club at threat of being put on probation). We also are expected to fundraise half our budget every year and we always fall short
We have a ski and outdoor sport expo, pass printing events and a few movie premiers and this year for the first time we are doing game night to help with team building with all the members so they can meet other members of the club. The goal this year is to be more than a bus ride to and from the mountain. I saw that UVM just made a facebook page/forum and we are def gonna do this.
This year we made sure everyone on our exec board has a distinct roll and we are finally getting sponsors for the club and allocated members to do brand outreach as their sole responsibility.
Thats about it, def leaving some stuff out but would be great to hear about other clubs from other members or exec members!
