“We want to celebrate the fact that the opportunity to come to the slopes of New Hampshire is not decided by a person's ethnicity, social, or economic background. Our dream for Diversity Day is to provide the atmosphere and a program that will encourage others to bring individuals skiing, snowboarding and tubing who may believe that this is a sport out of their reach," says Jim Wall, Director of Services.

Part of the day’s celebration includes 130+ Youth Enrichment Services (YES) kids skiing and snowboarding at Pats Peak in the afternoon and then taking part in the festivities in the early evening. The celebration’s speaking program features YES Executive Director, Bryan Van Dorpe and Pats Peak’s Director of Services and Diversity Day organizer, Jim Wall.
