Snow-Down for Habitat is March 17—Come One, Come All
Join Habitat for Humanity Calaveras and Bear Valley Cross Country for an invigorating
day of cross-country skiing and snowshoeing for all levels of expertise on Sunday,
March 17. Along with the skiing or snowshoeing we will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Weencourage everyone to wear at least a touch of green. Check-in begins at 9 a.m.
This 2nd annual “Snow-Down for Habitat”, sponsored by Bear Valley Cross Country
offers a fun day in the snow to benefit Habitat for Humanity Calaveras. Choose cross-country skis or snowshoes and follow the beautiful trails on a scavenger hunt for Habitat.
Marked trails of varying length and difficulty offer challenges for all and will feature
special stops for refreshments, information about Habitat and camaraderie. Paul Peterson
of Bear Valley Cross Country will offer mini cross country ski lessons at approximately
10 a.m.
Ticket prices are $50 for adults and $40 for children 12 and under. The price includes
equipment rental and trail passes for the day (you will receive a discount of $10 if you
bring your own equipment) and an après-ski lunch at Sky High Pizza and Pub in the Bear
Valley Village Center. The lunch provided by Sky High Pizza and Pub will include an
all-you-can-eat pizza and salad buffet. Non-alcoholic drinks are free. Drawings for prizes will take place at Sky High Pizza when lunch is served between 1:00 and 2:30 p.m.
During the lunch hour Nedra Russ and Julio “Inglasses” Guerra will perform American
blues capturing the spirit of their home in the backwoods of the Sierra Foothills.
