Dear Sugar Bowl Academy Community,

One of the most special aspects of the Sugar Bowl community is our families. Your involvement and support are essential to our ability to provide our athletes and students with opportunities to excel athletically, academically, and as individuals. In short, you make grit, grace, and courage happen. This year, we are offering more opportunities for you to be involved and support Sugar Bowl Academy.

For our team families, we will need your help at races, competitions, and other events at Sugar Bowl. We will also ask for your assistance with our youngest athletes to keep them safe and happy on our busiest on-snow days. We are excited to start a new program for volunteers. A limited group of volunteers will receive a free Sugar Bowl Unrestricted Season Pass for committing to volunteer for a set number of days this season. Look for the details of this program soon.

For our school families, each family will need to serve on a school committee this year. Families will sign up for their committee and learn about their responsibilities at our Family Day on Monday, October 27, 2025.

For everyone in our community, we are planning our biggest fundraiser ever. On Sunday, February 15, 2026, we will be hosting the U10 North Series Slalom race. We will close the day with the Academy Soiree, our main fundraiser and a cannot miss celebration of grit, grace, and courage. Mark your calendars now for the Academy Soiree on February 15, 2026!

Finally, as a non-profit organization, we rely on tax-deductible donations. Giving is quick and easy, whether it is $25 or $25,000. We want full participation from our families. There is no reason to wait. Give now at sbacademy.org/give.

From the Sierras to the Bay, Sugar Bowl is buzzing. Thank you for helping make it happen. Let's keep it going. We look forward to your continued involvement and support.

Sincerely,
Stephen McMahon
Executive Director
