 Jam For The Cure
Sugar Bowl is teaming up with Boarding for Breast Cancer and The HERA Foundation to race and jam for the cure on Feb. 14. The resort will be holding a Dual Giant Slalom race in the Christmas Tree Race Arena and a rail jam in the Switching Yard Terrain Park. All entry fees from these events will go to help find a cure for breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Sugar Bowl will have many sponsors on hand supporting the cause.
All proceeds from the race and rail jam will be donated to these charities. They will also be donating $3 per lift ticket from all the participants. Get ready to show off your pink because we have pink lanyards for sale. Show your season pass off in style, get yours before they are gone.
Who is the race supporting?
