Thank you to everyone involved with the 2013 SAFE AS Clinics for your support of the High Fives Foundation! The women’s avalanche safety workshop series raised $1,890.00 for the Foundation.
This year’s SAFE AS clinics were a huge success as the leading ladies were able to connect with and educate 150 women. Over was $5,000 was raised for four charities: the High Fives Foundation, the Utah Avalanche Center, the Northwest Avalanche Center, and the South American Beacon Project.
