Ludlow, VT – During this holiday season, Okemo invites skiers and snowboarders to consider the needs of those less fortunate and to get a deal on a lift ticket in the process.
On Saturday, Dec. 15, Okemo Mountain Resort will host its annual Cares and Shares Food Drive. When skiers and snowboarders donate at least five non-perishable food items, a new child’s toy or new clothing item, their generosity will be rewarded with a discounted $39 lift ticket for a full day of skiing and riding at Okemo.
Okemo Mountain Ambassadors will be accepting donations in the Vermont ski resort’s Clock Tower and Jackson Gore base areas between 7 a.m. and 1 p.m. Volunteers from the Black River Good Neighbor Services Christmas Basket Program will help distribute the donated items to needy families in time for the holidays.
