The first ever 24oo Feet of Schweitzer and 10th annual 24 Hours for Hank ski event was a great success! Participants raced 2400 vertical feet down 2.4 miles in the longest giant slalom course in the United States! And, they did this in near blizzard conditions. The race started at sunrise, two hours before the resort is even scheduled to open. Once again we were challenged with weather, and though all of the snow was not ideal for racing Giant Slalom it made for some epic powder skiing the rest of the day. The weather never detours our participants, and they come anyway. They come because we are all committed to finding a cure. We have raised over a $1.2 million dollars to cure Cystinosis. This year we set a goal to raise $150,000. We not only achieved this goal, we exceeded it! Thanks to all of your support we were able to donate $165,000 to Cystinosis research!
