The Metropolitan Milwaukee Ski Council was formed in September 1963 to promote and encourage safety and good sportsmanship in the sport of snow skiing, to develop a fraternal spirit among skiers and ski clubs active in the metropolitan Milwaukee area, to serve as an information center for skiers, to coordinate racing and other events among member ski clubs, to disseminate information and news on snow skiing to the general public, to organize and sponsor ski related functions which do not encroach upon the privilages nor usurp the functions of member ski clubs and to do any and all other things which tend to further snow skiing in general, as directed by the member clubs.
