Calling all skiers and snowboarders! Grab your boots and goggles, strap into your skis or snowboard and hit the slopes for the 20th annual Jimmy Fund Snow Challenge. Skiers and snowboarders of all abilities are invited to Nashoba Valley Ski Area on Saturday, Feb. 14, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Join your colleagues, community group, or friends, for a day of team and individual ski and snowboard racing to support adult and pediatric cancer care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.


The entry fee for a four-person race team is $240 and for individual racers, $70. All team racers receive a lift ticket for the day and a barbecue lunch. Teams are also encouraged to fundraise—for every $150 raised above the registration fee, one second is deducted from the final race time, so everyone has a chance to win. After hitting the slopes, all participants gather in the Nashoba Valley Ski Area lounge for a live auction, awards ceremony, and après-ski party to celebrate. The races are free to spectators.


This year’s Jimmy Fund Snow Challenge will be held in memory of Didier Putzeys, event founder, who passed away in December 2014.


The Jimmy Fund is one of several organizations that Nashoba Valley Ski Area supports. Nashoba Valley Ski Area is located in Westford, Mass., just 45 minutes from Boston, featuring 100 percent snowmaking and wide-open, tree-lined trails. For directions, go to www.skinashoba.com.


Registration begins at the mountain at 9 a.m., though pre-registration is encouraged. Lunch will be served starting at 11:30 a.m. and racing begins at noon.
