Mammoth Invitational
On behalf of the Mammoth Mountain Community Foundation, we would like to thank you for your participation in the 2010 Mammoth Invitational and your donation to the Mammoth Center for Excellence. We are so pleased you could join us for our second event, which was marked by exciting races and events, good food, good times, and most importantly good friends. We enjoyed meeting you and working together on a worthy project.
Mammoth Mountain Community Foundation was created with the goal of establishing a world class, slope-side facility at Mammoth Mountain. This facility will support the training needs of Eastern Sierra snow sports junior athletes in their quest for excellence. Your support at the Mammoth Invitational was the first step in making this facility a reality. In addition we will provide sports coaching and academic tuition to those who excel and are in need, as well as supporting local schools in their mission to develop our youth to their fullest potential.
Thank you very much for your support; we appreciate it very much.

A fun weekend of ski racing and parties to benefit an important cause – helping gifted athletes become world-class.
The mission of the Mammoth Mountain Community Foundation is to support young athletes and scholars in the Eastern Sierra by providing facilities, services, equipment and programs which enable them to achieve educational and competitive sport excellence.
The Mammoth Invitational is an annual fundraising event to benefit the Mammoth Mountain Community Foundation. A near term goal of this important fundraising effort is to establish and build The Mammoth Center for Excellence, a world-class, on-mountain facility that will provide space for training, seminars, coaching and equipment storage for winter and summer sport competitors.
With your help we will provide the means and tools to support, train and educate youth in our community. Help us achieve our goals by attending the Mammoth Invitational April 2-4, 2010. Join important business leaders and successful athletes and celebrities - US Olympians Ted Ligety, Stacey Cook and Tommy Czeschin as well as other high profile athletes and celebrities like pro surfer David Kalama, are scheduled to attend the weekend, which will include ski and snowboard races, evening social functions, entertainment, live/silent auctions and more.

Race Format
Join us for an exciting weekend of both alpine ski racing and banked slalom. Alpine and snowboard racing teams will be made up of five athletes (4 amateurs and 1 pro/coach to be assigned by MMST) and each team will represent a country (i.e. USA, Switzerland, Germany). The Saturday alpine race will consist of two runs down a dual giant slalom and each racer will have a handicap based on their ability.
Banked Slalom teams will compete on a handicap basis on a custom course in Powder Bowl, Friday afternoon, designed by the Unbound Crew especially for this event. Never been on a course like this? No worries, we’ll show you how with the help of our pro athletes at the event.
