We will be celebrating our centenary in 2025. One of the headline events will be a centenary meet at the Kurhaus in Arolla from 14-17 March. This will be a fantastic meet and further information and registration details will be announced soon.

It's that time of year....as agreed at the AGM, subscription rates are changing this year and are effective from 1 May 2024. The revised rates can be found on the Join Us page on our website. Members paying by direct debit can expect notification from GoCardless in April. Please contact the Membership Secretary (membership@eagleskiclub.org.uk) if you have any questions.

Next year marks the 100th anniversary of the club’s foundation in the small Swiss resort of Maloja in 1925. Planning is already underway for a number of special events and activities to celebrate the centenary, looking back on a century of ski-touring and forward to the future. It is hoped that as many members as possible, young, old, recently-joined, and veterans of decades of touring with the club, will be able to participate in one or more events. For full details see the special centenary events page.

Our Club is run for members by members. We employ no staff, so we rely entirely on members who step forward to help run the Club. We have a number of opportunities coming up between now and our next AGM. These roles include Website Editor, Communications Secretary and Auditor. We've also got a couple of committee member opportunities coming up. Find out more here:

If you've ever thought you'd like to have a go at leading a club tour, or if someone has suggested you'd be good at it, now is your chance! The leader development programme is open for applications from any member aspiring to lead club tours. Find out more on the leader development programme page. We would like to have more female leaders but men are equally welcome. Don't delay! The closing date is April 15th 2024. If you need more information, contact Brian Horn leaderdev@eagleskiclub.org.uk

Encouraging and supporting more ground-up, member-organised activities is one of our priorities. These activities can range from seeking ski touring companions at short notice to putting forward ideas for informal ski tours and non-skiing activities in the summer. To help support this, we've created a new member-to-member section on the website, which includes advice on Contacting Other Members, the Members Map, a page on organising member-to-member activities, a new Member Organised Activities forum, and advice on Creating your Club profile. 

As part of your preparations for going ski touring, have a read of our webpages on advice for tour participants and a summary of our key safety messages.
