| The 3rd Ski Everest Challenge |
| July 24th 2010 sees 3rd Ski Everest Challenge event return to SNO!zone Scotland’s indoor snow slope at Xscape, Braehead, Glasgow. Challengers register for the event at a cost of £18 (payable to Cancer Research UK) then pledge to raise a minimum of £50 sponsorship for Cancer Research UK. |
| History of the Event |
This bi-annual event was started in 2006 by Eileen Frater and Alison Mann and they have raised over £20,000 for cancer charities to date.
Ski Everest Challenge has attracted participants from all across the UK from as far afield as London and Aberdeen. We continue to have support from Snowsport Scotland, members of the Snowboarding Club of UK (SCUK) and many Ski Clubs throughout the UK and we are so grateful for their continued support and encouragement. |
| The Challenge |
Individuals are challenged to complete 45 runs - the equivalent of the peak height of Mount Everest (8850m / 29035 feet). The Ski Everest Challenge is no mean feat and it has its ‘challenges’ – both up and down! - but throughout the event, everyone taking part is supported by an enthusiastic Ski Everest Team who are on hand both on and off the slope to make your day fun-filled and enjoyable.
To add to the merriment, fancy dress is encouraged although not compulsory! |

This year the theme is ‘Scottish Summer Chill Challenge’ because the event is being held in the height of summer for the first time. So if in the summer you will miss the ‘white stuff’ please join us for a great day out and of course you’ll be raising much-needed cash for a great cause
– Cancer Research UK. |
