CONTRIBUTE TO RETURNING SKIING TO CUCHARA MOUNTAIN PARK
Panadero Ski Corporation is working hard to open Lift 4 and with it access to 7 beginner and family-friendly runs, all on a truly affordable lift ticket. To be able to open and provide the best experience possible we've identified the four critical areas below that need funding to return lift-served skiing to Cuchara Mountain Park. Please tell us if you'd like to direct your donation to a specific area.
Once we are open, we plan to:
-
Develop rental and ski school programs
-
Begin youth programs with local school districts and organizations to promote involvement in skiing/snowboarding
-
Provide the best skiing/riding experience at a low cost
Your generous donation will support our efforts to return skiing to Cuchara. If your business is interested in our sponsorship/partner opportunities, see below or contact us!
