Older and Like to Ski? Join Silver Streaks!

Each winter, around 140 enthusiasts fifty through ninety-five come to Waterville Valley for skiing, coffee and doughnuts, and companionship. Members even participate in an amateur racing competition known as “The Beer League.”

It’s a great way to stay active and social through NH’s long and rough winters. Members can also do moonlight snowshoe treks and Nordic ski outings. There are potlucks on Wednesdays, and a Silver Streaks early bird dinner special at the nearby Coyote Grill.

Everyone of all skill levels and endurance is welcome to join. There’s no pressure to do multiple runs if a person isn’t up to it.
