Crotched Mountain attempts to set record while raising money for the disabled

On Saturday, March 15th from 10:00am - 3:00pm Crotched Mountain Ski & Ride will attempt to establish the record for most starts on a NASTAR race course in a single day.  NASTAR is an open race format that welcomes all ages and ability levels.

A discounted entry fee of $5.00 will get unlimited runs on the NASTAR race course.  The mountain will be holding a fundraiser during the race to benefit CMARS- the Crotched Mountain Adaptive Ride & Ski program.  All donations will be used to purchase new equipment for the program.

CMARS is a non-profit program and an affiliate of AbilityPLUS.  The program provides ski and snowboard lessons for students experiencing a range of disabilities.  All lessons are taught by trained volunteer instructors.  For more information on lessons, reservations or getting involved as a volunteer, visit online http://www.crotchedmountain.com/adaptive.html or contact the program at 588-3668 ext.229 or adaptive@crotchedmountain.com

Whether you want to support a great program that benefits people with disabilities, are a seasoned racer looking to set a new course record, have always wanted to run gates but need an excuse or are just looking for a chance to one-up your friends… here’s your opportunity.  Get out and enjoy the snow.
