The Team GIVE’R Story | Presented by The North Face
In partnership with The North Face, we’re proud to present the heartstring-pulling backstory of Team GIVE’R, a non-profit youth freeski team based out of Red Mountain Resort in Rossland, B.C.
Founded by the infectiously positive Ryan Lachapelle, the Team GIVE’R Freeride Club represents much more than just a ski team. As part of the Team GIVE’R Foundation, which was born out of a devastating tragedy and life-changing loss for Lachapelle, its driving purpose is to selflessly give back and pay it forward to young athletes in the Rossland community and beyond, all while honouring the memory and legacy of a fallen friend.
