The Story Behind the Name

Klein's Sport Shop pays tribute to Bill Klein, a true pioneer of skiing on Donner Summit and a longtime part of Sugar Bowl's history. In 1936, Bill and his brother Fred founded a ski school on Donner Summit, three years before Sugar Bowl opened. Bill went on to lead Sugar Bowl's Ski School and Sport Shop beginning in 1945, eventually focusing on the retail shop alongside his wife, Anneliese. The original Klein's Ski Shop became a familiar part of the Sugar Bowl experience for generations of skiers. Today, we're proud to bring the Klein name back, honoring the people, passion, and independent spirit that have shaped Sugar Bowl since the beginning.
