The Blitzschnell Ski Club (the
name translates to lightning-fast in German) was
founded in 1965 with members primarily in the Massachusetts North Shore area. For
many years the club was based near Mt. Whittier, the now defunct ski
area in West Ossipee, NH. Since selling the house in the 80's the club
has attracted members who either own their own houses, are day trippers,
or are members who hold dual memberships at other clubs for lodging
purposes. At times there has been sufficient demand that the club has
rented a house on a year-by-year basis. As you can see on the EICSL web
site (www.eicsl.org),
the benefits of being a member of a club associated with EICSL are
many. Our members are fully involved with all of the year-round aspects
of the social and ski race opportunities the league offers in addition
to our own club events.
We have a very
reasonable fee structure for skiers who would like to join the club and
participate in EICSL. We offer a general membership, which includes
club and EICSL membership or full membership which includes club, EICSL
and race fees for participation in the EICSL White Mountain Racing.
EICSL racing is a separate program for those who are interested in
competitive, all abilities, all ages, ski racing. Race classes are
broken down by both age and ability level so you're never racing someone
either way above or way below your ability level. The junior membership
includes race program participation and eligibility for all of the
discounts on food, merchandise and services which are listed on the
Discounts Page of the EICSL web site.
The Blitzschnell
Ski Club also offers a separate race membership for members of other
EICSL clubs who do not have a race program. All race members must be
EICSL members through their primary club. Please use the membership
form if you would like to join us. Feel free to e-mail csl@linehan-photography.com or call (781)828-2464 if you have any questions.
