"THANK YOU" to all those members who donated their activated units to the Donation Committee! Our Donation Committee is hard at work to be sure these dollars are used according to our mission and values of the Crystal Mountain Founders Club. CMFC partnered with Crystal Mountain Inc. (CMI), the City of Enumclaw and Enumclaw School district to promote the "Learn to Ski" program which targets local kids that provided them with a three day package to include transportation to and from Crystal Mountain, ski equipment, lessons, lunch and lift tickets at one low cost to give them a ski experience. The three day program was February 18th to February 20th, 2025 Below is an email from Hannah Rowhouse: Dear Mike, Wendy, Jenny, Blake and the Crystal Mountain Founders, On behalf of the entire Crystal Team, I want to take this important moment to extend our deepest gratitude for your incredible support. On Thursday, we wrapped up the first-ever Enumclaw Learn to Ski Program, and we truly could not have done it without the collaboration of the Charitable Giving Team and the generous CM Founders that donated. Your early contribution ignited this initiative, playing a vital role in both securing buy-in and providing lift access support. Your belief in this program helped turn it into a reality, and we are so grateful for your partnership. Some exciting highlights: Out of 40 brand-new skiers, every single one made it to Tinkerbell, and two groups even progressed to Queens! Talk about growth! By the third day, 15 families returned for night skiing, eager to spend more time on the mountain together—this truly embodies the heart of the program: fostering lifelong connections through skiing. This pilot program was a tremendous success, and we are eager to build on this momentum. Please extend this “thank you” to the rest of the community on our behalf! We look forward to working with the Founders on future initiatives that expand our impact in the community and continue creating unforgettable experiences on the mountain for our local youth. Thank you again for your generosity and support (pictures to come!)—we couldn’t have done it without you! Hannah
