Planning for 2026
Yes, I’m back – the new (ol’) kid on the block (or board, actually)!
We already have a trip planned to a spectacular place: Aspen Snowmass, in February. Some Vagabond skiers have also expressed interest in going back to Big Sky, Mont., in 2026. In years past, we often had three week-long ski trips, as well as a Midwest one, but times have changed, of course.
Our longtime vendor suggested Jan. 11-17 for a Big Sky trip, but now he is unable to set it up for us. So, I have been seeking out other vendors to help us organize a trip there at that time. Please stay tuned and let me know (sjborch27@aol.com) if you are interested.
Snowmass, Feb. 7–14, 2026
Details are being worked out for our February trip to Aspen/Snowmass. We will stay at Top of the Village condos again, flying into Denver and taking a bus to Snowmass Village. Registration will start soon. Watch your email for information.

Is there a star on your license?
If you are flying within the U.S. after May 7, 2025, you will need a “Real ID” as an added security measure. Wisconsin began issuing Real ID driver licenses several years ago, so you may have received one the last time you renewed; it would have a star in the upper right corner.
If you aren't sure if you have a Real ID, check trust.dot.state.wi.us/ecdl/home.do. Your license will still be valid without Real ID even after the deadline. But you would need to use a passport at the airport.
The Vagabond Ski & Social Club is associated with the following organizations which promote skiing and snowboarding:
* Chicago Metropolitan Ski Council (CMSC), skicms.org
* National Ski Council Federation, skifederation.org
* Milwaukee Metropolitan Ski Council (MMSC), skimilwaukee.org
Visit their websites to learn more about these groups.
We are always looking for great photos of our members enjoying activities and you are our best source!
