It’s a bit of a drive for Kirkwood Mountain Resort team members to travel to South Lake Tahoe to volunteer at a Bread & Broth Monday Meal dinner at St. Theresa Grace Hall, however, it is a trip that the Kirkwood folks gladly make. Every other month 4-5 Kirkwood team members participate in Kirkwood’s Adopt A Day of Nourishment and join the B&B volunteers in serving the members of the Lake Tahoe South Shore community. Often there is a waiting list of Vail folks who want to come help at the B&B dinners.

It was opening day of the 2018-19 ski season for Kirkwood Mountain Resort on Saturday and the six inches of snow they received overnight helped them start with a base. The resort has had 30" of new snow since Wednesday.

Lifts started spinning at 9:00 a.m. with eager skiers and riders lined up at the base, awaiting first tracks. Passholders were treated to free breakfast sandwiches before hitting the slopes and all guests had a chance to win some snack, ski and ride gear giveaways.

Thanks to Vail’s Epic Promise Grant funds, Heavenly Mountain Resort hosts six Adopt A Day of Nourishment dinners every year. Bread & Broth is very grateful for Vail’s financial support and the many hours that Heavenly team members donate of their personal time to support B&B’s efforts to ease hunger in our community by hosting Monday Meal dinners.
