The Sierra Veterinary Medical Association is a group of veterinarians and their friends who love to ski. We have two big events each year. Our main event is our annual Ski CE Meeting, with the location changing every year. This event offers 20 hours of RACE certified CE, great skiing, and several social activities. The members have developed friendships that have lasted a lifetime. Our second event is a summer trip that is purely social in nature. Recent trips have included scuba diving in Belize, cruising in Alaska, mountain biking in Moab Utah, sailing in Mystic Connecticut, and exploring Key West. Our upcoming trip in August 2022 is an African Safari in Tanzania.
