2012 Volunteer Registration OPEN!
It's time for everyone to get excited for the upcoming 2012 Winter Games. We had more than 380 athletes and partners convening on beautiful Woodstock, VT in mid March, which is 38% increase over 2009. The Games will kick off on Friday, March 9th at Suicide Six Ski Area with our School Unified Snowshoe Competition representing schools from all over the state.
On Friday night, we will have the official opening ceremonies at the Woodstock Town Hall Theater. For those that have never attended the opening ceremonies, it's a very wonderful event where each of the delegations gets ready for their big weekend by reciting the athlete oath and sharing in the moment. There will be many VIP's on hand to give their best wishes. At the end of the opening ceremonies, there is an epic firework display that lights up the Vermont sky.
Starting bright and early on Saturday and Sunday our athletes will compete in one of the four winter events: snowshoe, alpine skiing, snowboarding or cross country skiing. Whether they are sprinting for gold at the snowshoe venue or arching turns down Suicide Six's slopes, everyone is certain to have a wonderful time.
We welcome community support for the 2012 Winter Games, so if you're interested in volunteering, sponsoring or simply attending, please feel free to Contact Us.
