WINTER SPORTS -- Schweitzer Mountain Resort will be offering $10 lift tickets on Friday (Dec. 14) with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting Community Cancer Services and the Bonner Partners in Care Clinic. The event is Schweitzer’s first major event of the winter season.

Schweitzer plans to have about 2,000 acres of skiable terrain open and operate seven lifts next weekend as it plays host to the Community Day fundraiser. Lifts will run from 9am – 3:30pm.
 
“Community Day is a great opportunity to say “thank you” to our loyal skiers and support two organizations that provide much needed services in Bonner County”, said Schweitzer President and CEO Tom Chasse.
 
Tickets are available in advance at Schweitzer.com or in person at either organization. Early purchasers will be allowed to choose which organization they wish to support. During the day of the event, tickets will be available at the Schweitzer Guest Services, Activity Center and Snow Sports Center.
 
Info: Schweitzer’s Activity Center, (208) 255-3081.
