BOGUS BASIN SCHOOL RACE PROGRAM
Details
The program’s philosophy has 3 goals:
1. Provide a safe environment on the slopes in which to participate.
2. Encourage students to represent and compete for their school in a lifetime sports activity. This provides a venue for many students to represent their school that might not otherwise be able to participate.
3. Provide a level of competition in which the maximum number of students can participate.

Bogus Basin Night League Racing
The Night League is canceled for the 22/23 season
The Night Corporate Race League is an evening alpine racing league designed to encourage fun, competition and increased skill. Alpine, telemark and snowboarders over the age of 21 are invited to put a team together and sign up for the race series which includes an end-of-season banquet. You must have at least one female on your team. A team can have more than five team members but only the four fastest times including the fastest female time, will count. All team members must be entered in advance of the series to avoid the occasional “ringer” who stops by for a week.
Pricing
| Per team of 5 | TBD |
| Per each additional racer | TBD |

Bogus Basin Ski Education Foundation
BBSEF was founded in 1967, to provide training and competition programs for aspiring young ski racers. Today BBSEF has grown to include freeski, snowboard and mountain bike programs. BBSEF provides programs for ages 6 -19 who want to compete in alpine ski racing, freeskiing & snowboarding and an alpine masters program for adults.
BBSEF is a separate non-profit organization with a focus on the development of the athlete as a whole. We believe the overall impact of sports goes well beyond the athletic results, instilling: sportsmanship, accountability, building character and confidence. Sports brings opportunities to make new friends, dream and work toward the future. It’s no surprise that the Athletes of BBSEF have gone on to become collegiate scholars, Olympians, and leaders in their communities.
