The #WEOUTSIDE Winter 2025 program rolls on – this time with a trip to Mt. Abram for some downhill skiing. Mt. Abram has been a great partner for the program and others like #GOALS – the mountain is friendly, easy to learn on, and attracts people from all over the place. All of the kids we’ve brought to the mountain have had a great time and all of them have gone from not ever being on skis to heading up the chairlift and down some real runs. A couple kids even hit up a blue square trail!

We have beautiful weather, not too cold, fresh snow and no crowds. Everybody geared up and hit the magic carpet run to get their ski-legs under them. As usual, it was hard to keep some eager kids from heading right over to the chairlift for some shredding action. Still, a couple of them were heading up even before lunch. After destroying three pizzas, six orders of fries, and six orders of chicken tenders, the whole group was out on the slopes again. The fun didn’t end until the lift was shut down at 4pm.
