Palisades Tahoe Alpine hosts Boarding for Breast Cancer’s ‘Love Your Peaks’ event

LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) is excited to ride/ski at Palisades Tahoe Alpine for the fourteenth stop of the 2024 Love Your Peaks Winter Prevention + Fundraising Series on Saturday, March 30.

B4BC’s Love Your Peaks is a fundraising series promoting breast cancer awareness at resorts nationwide, where participants can join the organization at partnering resorts to fundraise, ride/ski, and advocate for breast cancer awareness. The nonprofit is looking forward to hitting the slopes of Palisades Tahoe Alpine and spreading its mission of early detection + a healthy, active lifestyle as the best means of breast cancer prevention.

To kick off the weekend, the Love Your Peaks Palisades Tahoe Alpine stop will include a pre-event fundraiser at the River Ranch Lodge in Tahoe City on Friday, March 29 from 4 p.m. – 8 p.m. that will include a raffle and silent auction. On Saturday festivities will continue with a Pink Poker Run, tribute ride, silent auction, raffles and more!

The Pink Poker Run is an interactive activity where participants of all ages and abilities visit various checkpoints around the mountain to collect pink playing cards. Those with the three best poker hands will win B4BC partner prizes, with individuals representing in their best pink outfits and attitudes being awarded “bonus cards.” It’s a fun, immersive experience that takes participants on a mountain adventure while advocating for breast cancer awareness.

To participate in Love Your Peaks, individuals or teams just have to register, fundraise, ride/ski and win! The link to register and fundraise can be found here. A $25 donation is required for registration, but the more fundraised, the higher the incentives, including the chance to win some incredible partner products from brands such as Suja Organic, YETI, The North Face, Sun Bum, Pura Vida and more.

B4BC will also host a weekly virtual photo contest, opening the series to virtual participants. To enter, post on Instagram using the hashtag #loveyourpeaks and tag @b4bc. The winner will receive a prize pack from B4BC partners and individuals must be registered to win.

The Love Your Peaks series will be making additional stops at iconic mountain resorts across the country through May and encourages people to come out to their home resort, do a winter activity they love and support breast cancer prevention and awareness.
