Overview

Mission

Encourage skiing activities and promote sportsmanship

What it reported doing in 2025

The club provides and maintains a lodge to serve as a hub for members' recreational and social activities throughout the year, with a focus on the ski season. This program includes lodge usage, providing meals, and managing ski passes for members and their guests.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 82% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 92% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
