Team Hat-naughtsHello All - It's that time again Ski-A-Thon (SAT). SAT is back with a vengeance for its 35th year now that Covid is in our rear view (for the most part). The pandemic disrupted 'business as usual" and forced creative ways to deliver programming through loaned equipment and virtual sessions. Unfortunately the participative nature of Ski-A-Thon was also a casualty of the pandemic years - but SAT is once again returning to take its place as a key fundraising event for Maine Adaptive. Your help is greatly appreciated! My team - Hat-naughts - is looking for any and all support we can get. This is a rare but shameless post to leverage any recognition I have to benefit Maine Adaptive and kick off the return of SAT. You may not know me, but if you ski Sunday River you probably have seen me. I'm not promoting not wearing hats, but am using whatever visibility I have to support Maine Adaptive. Please kick in a few $ if you can for my team or any other Ski-A-Thon team to make this 35th year a strong one! See you out on the snow...

Thank you for your support Vortex!! You and family have always been super supporters of MASR. Covid was tough on MASR but the program is returning to "normal" again - volunteers are returning, more and more participant/athletes are signing up, and year-round programming is back up and running. Thank you to all for making it happen! Another auction item is up for bid that might be of interest to the community: 2023/24 First Tracks with Brian Heon plus all day use of the South Ridge VIP Suite. Winner picks the day (working within Brian's schedule). Great opportunity for a special family day or corporate "work day" ... an actual private room to make a few calls, run a Zoom Meeting, and get some runs in too!! C'mon you know you've hunted for a quiet corner before to "work" on mountain. Do a deal and celebrate on snow!

Many **THANK YOU's** to all of the generous people in this community for your donations to Maine Adaptive Ski-A-Ton 2023. A special thank you to those who donated to team Hat-Naughts - the team is at 91% of goal! Maine Adaptive is closing in on $200,000 for the return of Ski-A-Thon - now at $168,000 (84% of goal). SAT is this Sunday (April 2) so if you haven't made a contribution yet and want to, there is still time. Also a terrific auction is included - Ski-A-Thon 2023 AuctionBTW - I dug an old friend out of hermetically-sealed storage to commemorate this event. Team Hat-Naughts is actually a misnomer because we have never been without a hat - again thanks to all of you! Just check out these photos: If that doesn't bring back some memories!!

A sincere thank you! to everyone who donated to Hat-Naughts or any of the many other teams participating in the return of Ski-A-Thon 2023. The SR community has always been a pillar supporting all of the amazing things we see happening on snow all winter long. Summer too - which will start up soon.
Visit a program day if you never have. You’ll never think anything is impossible again!
