On Tuesday, January 19th, Sims partnered up with SOS Outreach and The New America School in Aurora, CO for a day of boarding in Breckenridge. Although the snow was coming down steadily it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. Booted and suited, these first time riders didn’t shy away from learning how to board. With the help of Sims pro rider Erich Dummer, several Sims employees and two Breck instructors, the kids were shredding like rock stars in no time. Nearly all the students made it up the chairlift by the end of the day and got in a few runs by themselves. With new skills under their belts we’re pretty confident we hooked a few on the snow sport we all love! We want to thank SOS for the wonderful opportunity and the kids from The New America School for their determination, you impressed us all!
SOS Outreach is a not-for-profit organization that aims to build character and self esteem in under privileged youth through snow sports. SOS serves over 4,500 kids at over 40 resorts across the US. Sims couldn’t be happier to be part of this fantastic program. SOSoutreach.org
