Join fellow skiers, riders, and AMC Boston Chapter Ski Committee members to celebrate March Madness -- a March filled with snowy adventures in New England. We will gather at the newest taproom of one of the best craft breweries, Trillium Brewing, located at 401 Park Drive, Boston, MA near the Fenway T station and plenty of buses. We'll trade stories of ski glories past and future. If you have ideas for activities our Ski Committee could undertake, please bring them, we want to hear from you. We can also help you get clued into how to join our many trips.
