Sugar Bowl Ski Team
The highly successful Sugar Bowl Ski Team provides alpine development, nordic development, winter awareness, as well as competitive alpine, freeride, and nordic ski programs for athletes ages 4 and up. While Sugar Bowl Ski Team alumni have gone on to become members of the U.S. Ski Team and to compete at the NCAA Division I level, SBST’s primary objective is to provide a fun environment in which kids learn to love the sport of skiing. They emphasize character development through the challenges faced here on Donner Summit. For more information and to register visit www.sbst.org.
