About the Corn Snow Classic
About the Corn Snow Classic
Brought to you by the Elk Foundation for the Advancement of Racing and Education (ELK F.A.R.E.), the inaugural Corn Snow Classic is a two-day, charity ski event. The event features U.S. Ski Team members and racers in a post-season, sanctioned J1, J2 and second year J3 race. Additionally, U.S. Ski Team members lead a number of instructional youth clinics for J3, J4 and J5 skiers.

Over the past several months, the Corn Snow Classic organizing committee has worked to secure participation by these elite athletes and generous sponsorships and in-kind donations that have truly made the event possible. Proceeds from the event benefit the U.S. Ski Team and ELK F.A.R.E.

Aside from the financial boost the Corn Snow Classic gives the U.S. Ski Team and ELK F.A.R.E., the enthusiastic participation of U.S. Ski Team members, almost immediately after the Olympics and a number of World Cup races, offers our young participants the experience of racing and learning from the best skiers in the country. No doubt, this experience will be a part of their lifetime love of the sport.
