2020 MOTHERSHIP CLASSIC RECAP
THANKS TO THE COMMUNITY THAT WAS BUILT AROUND THE GESTURE OF A HIGH FIVE AND FRIENDS SPONSORING FRIENDS FOR 25 CENTS A LAP, THE 6TH ANNUAL ARCADE BELTS’ MOTHERSHIP CLASSIC RAISED $38,000 FOR INDIVIDUALS AND VETERANS WITH LIFE-CHANGING INJURIES. PLUS we had over 90 people tune into the virtual event!
THE MOTHERSHIP CLASSIC IS A PLEDGE-DRIVEN EVENT HELD EACH SPRING ON THE ICONIC KT-22 CHAIRLIFT. PARTICIPANTS GATHERED PLEDGES TO BENEFIT #HIGHFIVESATHLETES prior to the event but due to COVID-19, the on hill portion of the event was cancelled and instead we went virtual on Instagram Live TO ENABLE “SOCIAL DISTANCING”.
With that being said, we are extremely proud of our community for coming together and making this event a success! Below are testimonials from after the virtual instagram live awards show.
We are all bummed not to ski KT today. We got some donations. Next year we will be back and will get more donations, can’t wait.Team BellToBellBoyz
Wahoooo! So stoked I participated and thanks to the matching was able to raise over $1K.Em Deane
I hope you all are hanging in there! These are strange times. Kate and I really wish we were slaying KT on our skinny sticks with you all today! It was our favorite day of the year last year. I'll get on and donate today and see if I can rally some others for you as well.Jon Cooper
Great job with the virtual Mothership, certainly a challenge to figure out what to do, but it was great fun.Mike Stender
Thank you!! I’m so glad you were able to make this virtual.Kate Abraham
