The Race for Warmth

Ring in the new year with a ski race for a good cause, NECKA’s Warmth Fund. We will donate 85% of the proceeds of the event to the Warmth Fund (saving a bit to cover our event expenses) so that we can help our neighbors stay warm this winter. 

Whether you are looking for a tune-up race ahead of the heart of race season or you just want to get out for a ski and support a good cause, come join us at the Race for Warmth.
