GREEN MOUNTAIN SHRED-A-THON
The High Fives Foundation
GREEN MOUNTAIN SHRED-A-THON
Our pledge-driven event is held each spring at Sugarbush Resort. Participants gather pledges leading up to the big day, then challenge themselves to hot-lap the mountain as many times as possible from first chair to last. Awards are given out across a variety of categories, and the celebration includes a vendor village, lunch for participants, and an all-around great party in the name of philanthropy!
How to Participate
Green Mountain Shred
The Green Mountain Shred is a bell-to-bell Shred-A-Thon fueled by laps, community, and Vermont grit. Locals and diehards come together to chase turns, challenge their legs, and raise critical funds for High Fives athletes—all while soaking up classic Green Mountain vibes.
Why Shred?
Fundraising unlocks a discounted lift ticket, a stacked swag box, lunch on event day, entry into all challenges and awards, plus access to the après party and celebration. Raise more → win more.
Event Day Vibes
All-day laps from first chair to last call, friendly competition, vendor hangs, and nonstop energy. Track your laps, take on pop-up challenges, and shred until your legs say otherwise. Helmets required, stoke guaranteed.
Awards & Challenges
Top Adaptive Athlete • Most Skier & Snowboarder Laps (Adult + Grom) • Best Costume (Adult + Grom) • First to Chair challenges
Après, the High Fives Way
When the lifts stop spinning, the celebration begins—awards, stories, and high-fives all around. Come for the laps, stay for the community, and leave knowing you helped keep athletes on snow.
