The Canadian Cancer Society is proud to introduce Slopes for Hope at Hemlock Resort on Feb. 10.

Slopes for Hope Hemlock is an "Everest-style" ski-a-thon in which participants attempt to ski or board the vertical of Mount Everest in one day.

Participants can sign up as individuals for a personal challenge, or in teams and split the distance between team members. Come up with a team name, wear costumes, and challenge your friends.

Thanks to the generosity of Hemlock Resort, participants who raise more than $100 for the Canadian Cancer Society will receive a free Hemlock lift pass for the event day. Registration is $10 per adult, children 12 and under are free.
