Colorado to honor its ski coaching legends at the 47th annual Ski Ball
BOULDER — The University of Colorado will honor its skiing coaching legends that directed CU to 20 national championships at the 47th annual CU Ski Ball "Leaders…Legends…Champions," scheduled for Friday, Sept. 22 at the Omni Hotel just a few minutes from Boulder.
Â
Colorado will have a lot to celebrate this fall at its annual Ski Ball; 20 national titles, honoring the eight in a row from 1972-79, 481 All-Americans and 94 individual NCAA Champions.
Â
The Omni Hotel is offering a reduced room rate for $105/night to attendees, who can make their reservations here at this link. The ballroom can seat 600-plus, providing CU with a great stage for the evening that will feature free parking and a 12-piece band that includes a horn section. A string quartet has also been added for the reception.
Â
Registration will open in July. Ski Ball has sold out each of the last two years.
Â
Individual Tickets: $150
Â
Sponsorships:
Title Sponsor: Flatiron Subaru at $10,000
Gold Sponsor: Elevations Credit Union at $5,000
Presenting Sponsors: Spyder, Lake Eldora & Steve Hatchell
Corporate Table Sponsor: $2,000 (seats 10 people)
Â
Donations:
The CU Ski Team is the most successful athletic program in CU history with 20 National Championships. This success is ultimately due to the unparalled commitment to the program by CU's many friends, fans and alumni who have assisted with donations to the Varsity Ski Team Gift Fund.
Â
CU Foundation Bill Marolt Scholarship Endowment Fund:
To provide scholarships to benefit student-athletes on the ski team at the University of Colorado.  Â
