Mike McKnight Ski Industry Award

Mike McKnight, a lover of family, powder skiing, and the mountains, inspired the creation of his endowment in 2009. The funds earned in perpetuity aim to assist an individual in the Golden community with similar passions.

This award is available to a Golden resident with a history of community involvement that is entering or continuing education or training in the ski industry (guiding, ski patrol, ski/board instructor, ski area management, or search and rescue).
