Albany, NY – Whether you are an avid skier or snowboarder, or have been contemplating learning how to ski or ride, there is no better time than the present to experience one of New York State’s more than 50 ski areas, for from now until January 9 the Ski Areas of New York (SANY) are teaming up to offer 10,000 lift tickets for just $10 each.

The lift passes are to be used for a one-day skiing extravaganza across the state on January 10, 2013.

Lift tickets are limited to two per e-mail address and are based upon availability at each ski area. As January is Learn to Ski & Snowboard Month, some participating resorts are also offering specially priced learn-to-ski packages on January 10.
