Hudson Valley Ski Club Make HVSC your home page!

If the first thing you do when you log onto the Internet is check the HVSC Home Page, why not make it your home page as well?  Then whenever you start your Internet browser, you will be positioned there automatically!  And any time you're looking at another web page, just click your browser's Home button (the little house icon near the center of your menu bar) and you'll return to the HVSC Home Page.

The process for doing this is pretty easy, but it is dependant upon which browser you are using. Click on one of the following buttons:

[AOL]    [Microsoft Internet Explorer]   [Mozilla Firefox]   [Netscape Navigator]
[Return to HVSC Home Page]

Note:  If you don't know what version of the browser you're using, click your browser's Help menu, and select About AOL or About Navigator or About Internet Explorer.

I hope you'll choose the HVSC page as your own; but if you have a different page which you link to all the time, this process will work for that page as well.
