Community Impact

Events like Catskills Pride Ski Weekend are vital for ensuring queer visibility and strengthening businesses and organizations that serve LGBTQ+ people, particularly in the greater New York region.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Hudson Valley LGBTQ+ Community Center, directly supporting the essential work we do in communities throughout the Hudson Valley and the Catskills.

Building on the success of the previous year's New York Pride Ski Weekend, which saw hundreds of queer community members come together for the event, this year promises to be even more fabulous.
