We have guest speakers or activities as a part of all our club
meetings. They have included talks by Master gardeners, ski patrol,

bicycle tours. We target a different “Bar of the Month” regularly and
have run recent ski trips to Big Sky, Mt. Bachelor and others. The
club’s big asset is its own year-round lodge, located in the Boyne

who use the lodge are treated to a modern, fully-equipped kitchen
