Bergfreunde Ski Club
About us:
Bergfreunde Ski Club (pronounced, "berg-frund-ay") is a year-round, all volunteer, nonprofit activities club for active adults, on and off the mountain. We have over 400 activities year-round, all organized by volunteer members. With over 2000 members from all walks of life, we are the 3rd largest ski club in the country.
Bergfreunde was founded in 1966 by a group of Bonneville Power employees. Although it originally began primarily as a ski club, it has grown to encompass all sorts of activities. See our Snow, Sports and Social pages for more details.
Our members vary widely in age, occupation, interests, and opinions. About 85% of our members live in Oregon, with a 49/51% ratio of men to women.
The purpose of Bergfreunde Ski Club is "to promote skiing and other recreational activities designed to increase the enjoyment of sports by its active members." Our focus is on a safe and socially congenial environment for our members.
Because all of our trips and activities are organized by our members, costs are almost always considerably less than those of other activities clubs. Many events are free!
For those members who are interested, Bergfreunde also offers many opportunities for leadership involvement. Come meet new friends, hone your leadership skills, and have fun, all at the same time!
