Eaglecrest Foundation thanks Alcohol Beverage Retail Association

The Alcohol Beverage Retail Association has made a $5,000 donation to the Eaglecrest Foundation in support of youth programs and other efforts supporting Eaglecrest. The Eaglecrest Foundation is exceptionally grateful for such a donation with Jim Calvin saying, “We are grateful for this generous contribution to the Eaglecrest Foundation. It reflects tremendous commitment to Juneau’s youth and to supporting healthy outdoor recreation opportunities in our community.”

The Eaglecrest Foundation was founded to solicit and manage donations for the exclusive benefit of the Eaglecrest Ski Area. Donations such as these help support youth programs and other community endeavors. As the only ski area in Southeast Alaska, Eaglecrest has 640 skiable acres, 4 double chairlifts, a vertical drop of 1,620 feet and an award-winning snow sports school. With donations such as these and support from the Juneau community, Eaglecrest can be accessible to anyone and everyone interested.
