The Blizzard Bash is benefitting Chill, a charity founded in 1995 by Jake Burton, of Burton snowboards. Chill works in 14 inner-city areas across the US and Canada. Each winter, Chill takes over 2200 at-risk youth to the mountains, teaches them how to snowboard, gives them everything they need for the experience, and shows them a new world of possiblities. Chill serves youth who are challenged by a multitude of issues: youth in group homes and foster care; with addictions; from the juvenile justice system; from alternative schools and community centers; those struggling with drugs, violence, excessive anger, or depression. Many of the kids have never left their cities, even their neighborhoods, and most have never been to the mountains. Chill gives all of these kids the chance to shed their labels of addict, delinquent, troublemaker, or underachiever, and, through their own personal success, become a snowboarder. |

Kids want to learn to snowboard because it is fun, but it takes several lessons and lots of hard work to learn. Chill uses the vehicle of snowboarding to help kids accomplish goals they never thought they could while teaching them some of the most important lessons of life: patience, persistence, respect, courage, responsibility, and pride-all through positive adult role models who treat the kids with respect and encouragement. SKI BUMS is especially pleased to present The Blizzard Bash to help the 170 New York City-area kids who will participate in this year's Chill program at Mountain Creek, along with the thousands of other kids nationwide whose lives will be changed this winter through the Chill program. SKI BUMS is committed to giving back to our community. Last year, we raised over $10,000 to benefit AIDS Walk New York, and we are a proud donor for this year's HRC Annual Gala. If you or your company would like to donate a prize for The Blizzard Bash, or make a private donation directly to the charity, please email benefit@ski-bums.org. SKI BUMS invites everyone to join us for The Blizzard Bash! Come help a great cause, and win some terrific prizes in the process! |
