2020 NYSEF SUMMER BENEFIT AUCTION
The New York Ski Educational Foundation’s (NYSEF) Annual Summer Benefit provides support to the various snowsport programs offered to athletes at Belleayre Mountain, Gore Mountain, Whiteface Mountain, Mt. Van Hoevenberg and the Lake Placid Olympic Ski Jumping Complex. In the current times, the event has moved to a virtual platform with an online auction.
Like many organizations, NYSEF has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic with canceled races, social events, camps, summer programming, etc. However, even in this challenging time, we will always have our strongest asset - the mass of individuals that make up the greater NYSEF community, all of whom play integral roles by spinning the supportive webbing that holds us up. We are confident that NYSEF and the communities where we operate will persevere through this unprecedented time.
Our goal is to raise $50,000 to help fund the greatest needs of the organization such as providing scholarships to athletes while also keeping enrollment costs down. All donations above and beyond value (Buy It Now) is an extra donation to the future of snowsports in our region AND WE THANK YOU.
YOUR support, at any level, is meaningful! We look forward to partying with all of you this winter season but for now, BID!
