ABOUT SNO-GOPHERS
In 1965 radio announcer Holmes “Daddy-O” Daylie organized the SKI FUN LEAGUE, (known today as the Sno-Gophers Ski Club). The Sno-Gophers Ski Club was founded to provide opportunities for skiing enthusiasts who wanted to ski more regularly and less expensively. The Sno-Gophers have traveled all over North America as well as Europe. Because of the club's extensive skiing program and the skiing proficiency of its members, the Sno-Gophers Ski Club is recognized as one of the nation's leading ski organizations. The Sno-Gophers Ski Club is one of the founding members of the (NBS) National Brotherhood of Skiers and is dedicated to promoting the sport of skiing within the African-American community. The Sno-Gophers are also members of the Chicago Metropolitan Ski Council (CMSC) www.skicmsc.org. This is a city wide organization of Ski Clubs in the Chicago area and suburbs.
Our program is not just limited to skiing. The club's calendar of events include year-round activities such as biking, camping, picnics, rafting, roller skating, roller blading, tennis, horseback riding, outdoor concerts and a variety of other fun filled endeavors. The intent of these efforts is to provide enjoyment and build camaraderie among members throughout the year as well as during the ski season.
