We may never know the impact we have on others. A seemingly inconsequential action could forever change the life of someone else, someone we may never meet. Greater still is the impact we can have in the lives of children–be they ours or others. On Tuesday, February 26, 2013 you have an opportunity to do just that. You can help change a child’s life.

In one week Bob’s Vertical Challenge will return again to Snowbasin Ski Resort for its 6th anniversary. All proceeds from the fundraiser go directly to ScoutReach, the charity arm for the Trapper Trails Council of the Boy Scouts of America.

In the previous five years, Bob’s Vertical Challenge has raised and donated tens of thousands of dollars to benefit children who would otherwise be denied life-changing experiences.

The Vertical Challenge is just that–an attempt for a team of four skiers/snowboarders to complete the assigned runs. Once completed, your team will have skied/snowboarded over 100,000 vertical feet! Don’t stop there! After you’ve conquered the challenge, see how many vertical feet your team can reach. Each team participant will be equipped with a GPS unit compliments of Flaik and results are tabulated in real time! Please join us Tuesday, February 26 at Snowbasin Ski Resort for a great day on the slopes with your friends, family, and co-workers. Registration is easy. Just go to our REGISTER page and sign up a team today!

Each year events come and go–events to support one cause or another. On February 26 you’ll have a chance to really make a difference in the life of a child.
