ABOUT THE RACE

The Financial Communications Society (FCS), in partnership with Stowe Mountain Resort, is proud to present RACE FOR KIDS 2009–a fun-filled weekend spotlighting an exciting ski team competition and charity fundraiser. 2009 marks the 9th year that Race for Kids will raise money for three important charities: The Hope and Heroes Children’s Cancer Fund, Downey Side and The Make-a-Wish Foundation of Vermont. The event attracts ski buffs and winter revelers from the advertising and media communities and their clients, friends and families.

Together we’ve raised over $1000,000 since 2000!

The fun starts on Thursday and lasts through Sunday morning, with the Race on Saturday morning. Each day begins at breakfast. There’s plenty of time to ski, relax with your friends, network with industry colleagues, and just sit back and toast the beauty of Vermont in January. Even if you don’t ski, there’s a full list of “things to do” off the slopes. For 2009, we have also added two days of events for kids so bring the family.So if you’re looking to kick off the New Year in a special way or if you’re just itching to show off your stuff, register today for Race for Kids 2009. Company sponsors and individual donors are also encouraged to suppor t this unique charity fundraiser. Click here for full details and registration.
