Henniker, NH –As part of their March Online Only Specials, SPF Days Go Sun Smart, New Hampshire’s Pats Peak ski area has donated $610 to support melanoma research.
Skiers and riders were able to purchase a lift ticket online in advance to ski or ride March 19-23 for only $25. For every online ticket sold, $10 of their $25 lift ticket went toward a donation to “Peter’s Fund Racer” to support melanoma research. Guests also received a sample of sunscreen to protect them from the sun’s rays.
“We understand that skiers and riders are always looking for a deal in March so we are happy to support this important cause and at the same time provide a discounted rate to our skiers and riders,” said Kris Blomback, General Manager of Pats Peak. “Those looking for a deal were able to get in some last runs of the season under the sun, support a good cause and get a great deal.”
The primary focus of Peter’s Fund Racer is to raise money for melanoma research and patient care. Malignant melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer. The number of people who develop melanoma is increasing faster than any other cancer. Deaths from complications of this disease are increasing at a faster rate than deaths from any other form of cancer except lung cancer. On May 23rd, 1999, melanoma claimed the life of Peter M. Newton at the age of 46.
