The fourth annual S2S Ski Marathon was held at Vernon’s Sovereign Lake Nordic Club and SilverStar Mountain Resort in April, with the silent auction raising some $14,000 for KidSport Vernon.

The S2S partner charity provides grants for kids aged 18 and under in Greater Vernon to play a season of sport.

The two-day Nordic event featured 21-km and 41-km races and two ski techniques – classic and skate.

Registrations were up 20 per cent over last year, with more than 700 participants and 980 race entries.

In its four years, S2S donations to KidSport total more than $45,000.
