Ho ho ho, away they go – Santa’s helpers took the day without work with just a few hundred of the jolly ol’ elves hitting the slopes.
With beards and stocking caps flapping, some 300 red-suited Santas had been vigorous and fast on the foggy Sunday River ski resort in western Maine as they took a break from the vacation hustle and bustle on Sunday.
The annual occasion has been held for greater than 20 years, aside from as soon as throughout the pandemic. The snowboarding Santas take part in full Kringle garb, together with, after all, a white beard and pink hat.
The occasion’s guidelines particularly state the hat should bear a white pompom.
The annual occasion serves as a festive kickoff to each the vacation season and the snowboarding season. It raises cash for The River Fund Maine, an training charity.
This 12 months’s occasion raised $8,000, Sunday River representatives stated.
“Every year, the kindness of Santa Sunday members contributes to creating impactful academic alternatives for our native college students,” stated Sunday River Resort’s Dana Bullen.
