The Gambler-Uphill Challenge to Benefit Patrol
Sunday, February 9, 2025
Join us for an Uphill fundraiser to benefit Saddleback Ski Patrol, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. It will be $40 to enter (includes an up-hill ticket) and proceeds will benefit our amazing patrol team. We will have a number of prizes to give away to participants.
Grab your skis, skins and/or your snowshoes – participants will use the up-hill trail where along the route you will be dealt playing cards. All participants will get a full poker hand (5 cards) in their first trip up the mountain. After your first lap you can do additional laps for 1 extra card per lap, the more laps you do, the better the chances for a winning poker hand.
Upon check-in of the event, guests interested in skiing lifts that day can purchase a discounted lift ticket.
After your final descent down the mountain join us inside at a table in The Pub at 3pm to see if the hand you were dealt will win you a prize or declare you the overall winner! Can’t make it to this event? You can always support Saddleback Ski Patrol by donating via Venmo @Saddleback-SkiPatrol.
