About CL
SC
The Clear Lake Area Ski Club (CLASC) is a non-profit, member-operated ski club that promotes the sports of snow skiing & snowboarding among Houstonians by offering trips to ski areas throughout the world. This year’s trips include resorts in Colorado, Montana, Canada, and Japan plus a Summer Expedition to Panama.
CLASC was organized in 1973 by a group of Clear Lake area skiers, most of whom worked at NASA’s Johnson Space Center. Since that time the Club has grown to over 300 members, encompassing a wide cross-section of the community.
The Club is an active member of the Texas Ski Council (TSC), which represents skiers throughout Texas. Membership is open to anyone (singles, families, couples, students) who is interested in the sports of snow skiing and snowboarding.
We also sponsor year-round activities which have included: bicycle touring in Holland, rafting in the Grand Canyon, scuba diving in Fiji, a shrimp boil and silent auction for the Sunshine Kids (our primary charity), dinner and movie nights, concert outings, horseback riding, ice skating, wine tasting, and monthly happy hours. We annually host a Holiday Party in December, and a farewell to the ski season party, called the Winter Wake, in April.
