Participants pay tuition and racing fees to train to become future ski racing champions. There are approximately 150 participants in the program. Some of those who graduated are now competing at the collegiate level. TAS operations are funded largely through tuition and fundraising events, and within this 2016-2017 Sponsors play a critical role in overall team finances. TAS accomplishments require more than training and hard work on the part of athletes, parents and coaches, they also depend on sponsorships from local businesses to offset a significant portion of expenses. Funds raised go toward improving our training and race equipment, both of which are critical to the continued development of our program. Importantly, sponsorship funds go to scholarships to skiers whom otherwise would be unable to race.
