As a Meetup member, you have no obligation to join the AMC.But, if you enjoy participating in our events, we hope you will consider joining the AMC (https://www.outdoors.org/join-today?chapter=NA&campaign=70150000001EMs5AAG).
Please, only RSVP if you plan on attending the event. For the consideration of our leaders, we ask that you contact us if you have RSVP'ed and can no longer attend.
Our events are led by highly qualified, trained AMC volunteers who are always concerned about safety. They take every precaution to assure participant risk is minimized and fun is maximized.

Skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels are invited to join the Narragansett Chapter 20s & 30s for a fun and flexible day at Wachusett Mountain! If you're an intermediate or above, you're welcome to hit the slopes at any time and head out at any time; if you're a beginner interested in taking lessons, join us at 8:45 so that you can take 10:00 AM lessons with other members of the club. Everyone is invited to have lunch in the Mountain Lodge around noon, and those who stick around until 6:00 PM are invited for a group dinner as well.
Intermediate and Above
- Wachusett offers a wide variety of ticket types. There are 4-hour and 8-hour tickets, plus tickets for various "sessions" throughout the day. See the ticket options and select the one that works best for you: https://www.wachusett.com/tickets-passes/lift-tickets/daily-lift-tickets/
- Slopes are open until 9:30 PM
- If you're interested in an intermediate lesson, you can sign up for a 1:00 PM slot. See the lesson page here: https://www.wachusett.com/lessons-rentals/lessons/group-lessons/. Please note that we can't guarantee that other event members will be interested in an intermediate lesson.
- You're invited to ski/snowboard with other non-beginners in the group, but if you find we go too slowly or too quickly, you are of course welcome to go off on your own. Just remember to meet us for lunch!
Beginners
- We assume you are taking beginner lessons. If you have never skied/snowboarded before and do not plan on taking lessons, this is not the event for you

- If you plan to tackle non-beginner trails after your lesson, you should first purchase a lift ticket and then purchase a lesson separately. We recommend a 4- or 8-hour ticket, depending on how long you'd like to stay after your lesson. See lessons here: https://www.wachusett.com/lessons-rentals/lessons/group-lessons/ and lift tickets here: https://www.wachusett.com/tickets-passes/lift-tickets/daily-lift-tickets/

The menu changes, the location shifts, but the spirit stays the same: explore, savor, and live every adventure locally.
This time, we’re trading the forest path for fork and plate, and meeting at a local culinary gem in Rhode Island.

Jahunger Providence brings the vibrant flavors of Uyghur and Central Asian cuisine to life with every dish. Their menu combines traditional recipes with bold, modern touches — colorful, aromatic, and full of character. Signature dishes like hand-pulled noodles, savory lamb dumplings, kavap lamb skewers, and stir-fried vegetables showcase fresh ingredients, rich spices, and the authentic warmth of Central Asian culinary traditions. Vegetarian options and unique side dishes ensure there’s something for everyone. To complete the experience, Jahunger offers refreshing specialty drinks and a cozy, inviting atmosphere that makes it perfect for casual dinners, nights out with friends, or simply exploring a new world of flavors in the heart of Providence.
