Warren Miller / Make-A-Wish Fundraiser in Reno
First in the history of Ski Base Jumping….to promote the Warren Miller / Make-a-Wish Annual Fundraising Event, SHANE McCONKEY, JT HOLMES, MILES D AND JESSE HALL SKI OFF THE ROOF OF THE SILVER LEGACY RESORT CASINO IN RENO, NEVADA!!!!!
They are going to be Ski Base Jumping 4 times during the day leading up to our huge Make-a-Wish Wine, Cheese and Chocolate Pairing Party with Musical Guest RAY PARKER JR, then to our Snowsports Tradeshow and PLAYGROUND Premiere, and finally, to our AFTERHOURS Party with Reno’s Favorite Band SOL JIBE.
As you can see, the Warren Miller Movie Premiere is 4 events wrapped into one action packed day/night!… And the most wonderful thing is, the proceeds from our event go to the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Northern Nv. Our goal this year for Make-a-Wish is $30,000. This is
Make-a-Wish of Northern Nevada’s biggest “out of house” fundraiser and we’re going to make sure that it’s big and better than ever before.
