Immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, professional skiers and snowboarders started working together to hold a charity ride and a charity auction as early as late March. They have continued their efforts with the support of local groups related to tourism.
The third charity auction is now scheduled. We’re now collecting charity items from everyone to support the auction (individuals and companies). We’re waiting for items that are expected to fetch high prices, such as accommodation coupons, meal tickets and so on. We would appreciate your cooperation and participation.

Events: 9:00-10:45 Charity ride with professional snowboarders and skiers
11:00-13:00 Charity auction
