BOLTON- The New England Ski Museum has announced the recipient of this year’s Spirit of Skiing Award is Ralph DesLauriers and the DesLauriers family, of Bolton Valley Resort.
The public is invited to an après-ski celebration on Saturday, April 5, from 4 to 7 pm, at the Timberline Lodge in Bolton Valley.
Each year, the New England Ski Museum honors an individual who truly embodies the memorable adage of Otto Schniebs, the 1930s Dartmouth ski coach: “Skiing is not just a sport — it is a way of life.”
