TRUCKEE, Calif. – Skiers and snowboarders can now pre-purchase reduced-rate lift tickets through the Excellence in Education Foundation’s annual Skiing for Schools program, which is celebrating 35 years this season. The fundraiser offers access to discounted lift tickets at various local ski resorts, with proceeds directly supporting educational initiatives in the community.
This milestone event not only provides an opportunity for winter sports enthusiasts to enjoy the slopes at a lower cost but also emphasizes the importance of investing in education. Over the years, the Skiing for Schools program has raised significant funds that have been used to enhance educational resources, support teachers, and provide scholarships for students in need.
Participants can enjoy a day on the mountain while contributing to a worthy cause. As the program marks this special anniversary, organizers are excited to continue fostering a love for skiing and snowboarding while simultaneously enriching the educational landscape for future generations.
