Posted by: thepinetree on 03/30/2016 09:36 AM
Bear Valley, CA...The 11th Annual Slush Cup, a fun ski race benefitting the Bear Valley Snowsports Education Foundation (BVSEF), will be held on Sunday, April 10th at Bear Valley Mountain. This BVSEF fundraiser event is open to the public to participate and designed for a rider’s skill level to be an intermediate and above. Almost always true to the name, the Slush Cup will be a slushy snow condition head-to-head racing event historically held under warm and sunny skies on Sunday of the ski area’s closing weekend. Each year the Slush Cup provides a competitive throw down for alpine skiers, snowboarders and Telemark enthusiasts. There are various age groups for both Male and Female categories in each discipline based on being an alpine or non-alpine competitor and the fastest run of the Finals declares the winner in each division.
