skiing at Suicide Six, the mountain would like to extend their appreciation
by inviting any Wellspring student or family member, even if they did not
participate in this year's program, to ski all day for just $20. Just go to
the ticket counter on the 18th and let them know the currently enrolled
student's name and you will be able to purchase lift tickets for the whole
family for $20 each.

The 14th Annual Snow Shoe A Thon will be Saturday Feb 12 Th. at the Vershire
Town Center. Start time is at 10 am.
FAMILY FUN! Join over 200 others aged 2 to 80, as you snowshoe up a 2-mile
course. 1-mile option available. Both courses end at the Mountain School
where students serve up a hearty lunch and host winter carnival games for
children. Invite friends and family for a day of winter fun.
RAISE MONEY FOR A GOOD CAUSE! Proceeds benefit VerShare¹s FREE Summer Camp,
Rivendell School Enhancements and Wellspring Outdoor Programs. No money
required to participate! Snowshoes are available for loan free-of-charge.

Every child is eligible to receive Snow Angel Pledges. These donations from
community members typically add up to about $25 -per child, so each child
helps the cause by just showing up and if s/he raises $35 that is typically
enough to earn a t-shirt.
