Scholarship Programs & Eligibility
Our scholarship programs aim to remove financial barriers and provide young snowboarders in the New England community with the opportunities they need to grow, compete, and thrive within the sport. Support can include help with program fees, coaching, travel to competitions, lift tickets, and essential equipment, so that cost is never the reason a motivated athlete has to sit out. By investing in these riders, we’re also investing in their confidence, leadership, and connection to a supportive mountain community.
