In partnership with U.S. Ski & Snowboard, the Vail Valley Foundation is thrilled to host our first-ever Stifel Birds of Prey Alpine Affair to celebrate our historic back-to-back men’s and women’s World Cup ski races!
Please join us for a monumental evening with fine dining and libations, a live auction, and a dance party you’ll never forget with a legendary surprise live performance by Rock & Roll Hall of Fame members and one of the most significant groups of funk and soul of all time, generously underwritten by John and Karen Arnold.
Additionally, members of the women’s Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team will be making appearances, including Mikaela Shiffrin and Lindsey Vonn, along with former ski racing legends, and the evening will feature an award ceremony honoring Bode Miller and Picabo Street, for their contributions to the sport of alpine skiing and the many accolades achieved during their storied careers.
TICKET PRICE: $1,000, Fair Market Value – $520; $480 is tax-deductible
Net proceeds from the Alpine Affair will benefit the U.S. Ski & Snowboard and the Vail Valley Foundation’s Stifel Birds of Prey.
