Ski Club at MRU
Biggest club at MRU
VP of Communications: Neil Hilts
“We organize trips to ski hills, and we have a social side outside of skiing, with a lot of bar discounts. The club also organizes carpooling for those that maybe don’t know enough people to go skiing. You can come out to our day trips or our bar nights. We have the best events, and it’s a really great way to meet others who are into skiing and snowboarding.”
