Welcome to the Pentagon Ski Club!The Pentagon Ski Club is Dedicated to SkiingThe PSC offers winter sports vacations to resorts around the world for skiers and snowboarders who want the fun, companionship and convenience of group travel. Unlike many other ski clubs, our focus is 100% on skiing. Our members have one thing in common: they like to ski! On any given trip you'll find PSC members waiting for the lifts to open in the morning and on the last lift up at the end of the day before the lifts close down.
Why the Name Pentagon?
The PSC is based in the Washington, DC area, but we have members from across the U.S. The club was founded in 1966
in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, located in the Pentagon—hence the
name Pentagon Ski Club. The PSC continues to have members that currently serve or have served
in the military, plus many current or former federal civilian employees. However, the club has no official
connection to the Pentagon, the military, or the U.S. government. Many members work in
private industry and have never been in the military or even inside the Pentagon. For more information
about the club, see About Us. Join The Pentagon Ski ClubThe club is open to the general public. Anyone can join! See Membership about joining the PSC. Be sure to read the Letter from the President. It will give you a good introduction to the club. Meetings Held on the 2nd Tuesday of the MonthThe club holds monthly meetings, usually on the 2nd Tuesday of the month, at the Officers Club at Fort Myer, Virginia, not far from the Pentagon. You do not have to be in the military to enter Fort Myer and attend the meetings. Upcoming meetings are listed on the Schedule of Meetings. See Directions to the Pentagon Ski Club Meetings at Fort Myer for driving directions and a map. Membership Has BenefitsPentagon Ski Club members also enjoy the benefits of membership in the Blue Ridge Ski Council and the National Ski Council Federation. See our Ski Links page for information about the BRSC and the NSCF. |

Our members also share another trait: they like to socialize, either on the slopes
skiing together or over good food or drink. The PSC doesn't run weekend trips or trips
to local resorts. We concentrate on vacation ski trips to destination resorts. Our trips
typically run 5-7 days. As a group, we can bargain with travel agents to keep costs
reasonable. We normally stay in quality condo or hotel properties located near the
slopes with nearby shops and restaurants. You can see the types of resorts we visit by reviewing our
