Next Free Ski Day, APRIL 11TH!

 Visit Neighbor Impact at www.neighborimpact.org

Neighbor Impact Free Ski Day held February 1st collected

18,800 lbs of food!   Our goal for April 11th...DOUBLE!!

Why Free Ski Day?

Help the less fortunate in our local community by donating a minimum of three cans of non-perishable food! If you can spare more, please consider donating it. All food will be donated to NeighborImpact (formerly COCAAN) and distributed in three counties. Although any donation of non-perishable food is accepted and appreciated, NeighborImpact prefers canned donations (boxed and glass items tend to get damaged). Please look below for a list of food needed.  

What you get...

In exchange for your canned food items, Mt. Bachelor will give you an all day lift ticket! Donations are accepted at Sunrise Lodge, West Village ticketing area, Nordic Center and the Bend Park and Ride between Columbia and Colorado.  You will receive a chit at the donation spot redeemable at any ticket window.  NOTE: Junior Race or Blue Lodge will be closed.

When and where can you ski and ride?

Lifts open at 9am and close at 4pm. Unrestricted all day tickets are available for alpine or nordic skiing. First Time beginner lessons are available for only $20 bucks!

Help us beat last year's goal!

Last season, guests helped us collect over 25,500 pounds of food for the needy in Central Oregon.  They also generously donated $1,000 (yes cash donations are accepted)!  Help us beat that goal!  If you can't join us for the event, please feel free to drop off your donation at the Bend Park and Ride located between Columbia Street and Colorado.  Every donation counts!
