Smugglers' Notch Ski & Snowboard Club

Welcome to Smuggler's Notch Ski & Snowboard Club!

Smugglers Notch Ski and Snowboard Club has been the growth place for the ski careers of many Olympians, National Team members, pro ski racers and college athletes. SNSC started in 1959, not as SNSC, but as the Madonna Racing Team. Well-known ski coach Mickey Cochran along with his sons and daughters formed the racing team. Skiers came from all around to be coached by Mickey and to be a part of a unique family-oriented program, which offered the highest quality training and coaching at an inexpensive rate. In 1975 SNSC became a not-for-profit organization with the goal to provide competitive skiing opportunities to our youth. Blessed with support from Smugglers Notch Resort, one of the best training hills in the East, and a diverse membership and coaching staff; SNSC can provide training, opportunities, experiences and memories unique to our wonderful organization.

Last season we celebrated our 50th Anniversary at SNSC and are looking forward to another 50 years! There have been many changes and upgrades over the past 50 years. I would like to ask anyone who has pictures, artifacts, posters, memorabilia, stories, etc from those past 50 years that they would like to donate to the club contact Kim at info@snscvt.com or Widg at director@snscvt.com or call 802-644-1177. We would like to decorate the clubhouse with our memories, successes, and stories of the last 50 years here at SNSC.

See you on the mountain!
