Trip Seminar, the Council's premier event, offers an excellent venue for CMSC member clubs to send representatives to meet with exhibitors from ski areas, tour operators, bus companies, and other related to the ski industry to book trips and gather information for the upcoming ski season. While this show is considered one of the best in the country by the exhibitors, it's truly up to our member clubs to actively support this event. Each individual CMSC club can do this by sending representatives to the Trip Seminar.
As exhibitors at the Trip Seminar see this support from the ski clubs and CMSC, the more they will be compelled to attend Trip Seminar and continue to support it. So CMSC clubs - get ready by planning ahead to attend the Trip Seminar and plan your ski season!
