Snowboarding

Snowboarding is offered in partnership with Burton’s Chill Program (http://www.burton.com). SBY gives youth the opportunity to participate in an eight-week therapeutic program based on the art of snowboarding. This program gives kids the opportunity to get out of an impoverished urban setting and experience a new kind of freedom in nature. Youth are coached by experienced instructors at White Tail Ski Resort. In addition to practical lessons learned from the experience, the program helps underprivileged teens gain a greater sense of self-confidence.
