Sierra Regional Ski for Light

Sierra Regional Ski for Light is overwhelmingly thankful for the more than generous donation from the Sacramento Turn Verein Actives and for their past support over several years!

Recently Tom lost his fight with cancer and left us way to soon! He was a great guide and board member at Sierra Regional Ski for Light. Over the past few years he put in countless hours arranging for our dinners during our Three Day Events. He was always willing to guide anyone I would ask him to. He was warm, positive and funny. Ski for Light will not be the same without him!

If you wish to donate to us in Tom’s memory send your donations to:

Due to Covid 19 restrictions and our concern for skier and guide safety, our 2021 SRSFL Three Day Ski Event has been cancelled! If Covid restrictions change and snow conditions are favorable the board will meet in January and discuss the possibility of adding a day trip some time during the ski season.

If you see or talk to Betsy, thank her for her work on this!

This is the final call for participating in the upcoming three-day event: March 7-9, 2020. This post contains all the info you need, including some updates and changes.

First of all, any guides or volunteers planning to stay at the hotel
should make sure to submit their application and payment by the new
deadline, February 20th. Please see the guide and volunteer pages on this website for your particular application, or contact Edie Lott, guide coordinator, or Cathy Campbell, volunteer coordinator, if you have any questions.

For skiers, we have made some adjustments as our skier coordinator,
Betsy Rowell, is still in rehab recuperating from her broken leg.
First of all, if you’ve already applied and have questions, you can
still contact Betsy on her cell phone: 916-205-5557.  Meanwhile, Cindy Quintana, former skier coordinator, has stepped in to help with tasks Betsy cannot currently do without her computer. If you have not yet applied, we have extended the deadline by a
couple of days. The new deadline is Thursday, February 20, 2020.
This is the deadline for both applications and money, unless you have
made prior arrangements.  Applications are available on line at www.srsfl.org
It is a pdf which most of us download and then fill out.

You can include your check with the application. Remember, all checks
should be made out to SRSFL.

And if you are emailing your application, you can either send your
money to Cindy at the above address, or you can mail it directly to
our treasurer at:

Jean Snuggs
609 42nd Street
Sacramento, CA  95819

With only a few days remaining to apply, we sincerely hope you will
consider joining us for this annual weekend of SRSFL magic. And do
not hesitate to contact either Cindy or Betsy if you have questions.

And whether or not you plan to attend, please, please keep that snow
dance going!

While we only had five visually impaired skiers, it was still a great trip!  The weather was fantastic, the snow was good and everyone had a great time!  Join us on February 8th for our next day trip.

The snow is here!  Get your guide and skier applications in soon and get ready for another great ski season!
