KILLINGTON — Being held over the weekend of Feb. 27 – 28, Killington’s Slash and Berm is a two-day benefit banked slalom event held at Killington’s Stash Park to bring the East Coast snowboarding community together.
Snowboarders will gather at Killington’s “The Stash” terrain park to take advantage of the natural terrain and all the creative elements the mountain has to offer for a great cause. Saturday’s event is open to all snowboarders and will be timed individually. The action continues on Sunday with a Shop Team Invite only banked slalom event. Shops will enter teams to compete for the Slash & Berm Banked Slalom title.
A portion of the proceeds benefits the Molly Rowlee Fund. The Molly Rowlee Fund is established at Dana Farber Cancer Institute/Children’s Hospital-Boston, used to assist families with children who are being treated for cancer.
