Ski & Sports Swap 2018 will be held Saturday September 29th!
Benefiting Community Education in Girdwood
Yellowing leaves and cool nights means that winter is heading quickly to Southcentral Alaska. Here in Girdwood one way we embrace the change of the seasons by sorting through last seasons sports equipment to make way for the next seasons gear. In a ski town this also means replacing used ski and boarding gear that has been outgrown or unused, and putting that equipment back on the local market via the FVCS Ski & Sports Swap held each fall at the Alyeska Daylodge. This event is a fundraiser for Four Valleys Community School, and a great annual community gathering.
As you sort through your gear this fall and prepare for the winter, put some things aside for the Ski & Sports Swap. Control sheets and tags are available at the FVCS office now, and will be available at the Girdwood Post Office beginning September 14th.
Want to sell gear, buy gear &/or volunteer? You can do it all! See details for each below.
