The snow has arrived and resorts are gearing up for an epic winter and holiday season. We are about to get the biggest storm of the season so far. With Christmas around the corner skiing for schools tickets make a great holiday present and helps the community!
On selected days, the participating resorts are offering skiers and snowboarders special discounted lift tickets and the opportunity to support education. The proceeds from your lift ticket purchase go directly to the Excellence in Education Foundation, which provides enhanced educational opportunities for our local students.
