    Looking for advice on joining a ski club/lodge.

    Sterling ski club is based in Stratford CT. They have a lodge about 1/2 mile from Mt Snow, and another at the base of Mt Ellen, which can be ski-in/ski-out in the right conditions. They are family friendly. Cheap dues and @ $25 per night to stay.
