We are honored to host The Blind Skier 50th Anniversary Gala by Deep Creek Lake Lion’s Club. The Lion’s Club has planned a glamourous night on Tuesday, February 7, including guest speakers, dinner, dancing, fireworks, and silent auction.
The program was brought to Deep Creek Lake in 1973 after Bill Thoman, former mountain manager of Wisp Resort, and Jay Kamineck, a ski instructor, were skiing in Colorado when they saw sighted volunteers assisting young people with vision challenges in skiing down a mountainside. The club has since taught hundreds of visually impaired children to downhill ski.
To celebrate their 50th Anniversary, the gala will include keynote by Brian McKeever, paralympic gold medalist in cross-country skiing, dinner and cash bar, and an awards program to recognize long-time all-stars to the program.

Anniversary Gala, please visit Deep Creek Lake Lion's Club.
With the return of Hero's Day, we also anticipate and welcome the return of cold weather for snowmaking. What a wacky week of weather during the holiday period - from single digits to mid-50s - Mother Nature always keeps us on our toes. Our Mountain Operations Teams are poised to turn the snow guns on and build back the base along with expanding to other terrain. Our mission is to open as much terrain as possible, as soon as possible. #thankasnowmaker #highfiveagroomer
