To the community,

Volunteering at Heavenly Mountain Resort’s Feb. 22 Adopt A Day of Nourishment dinner, Kyle Hayes was very excited about his time spent helping the B&B volunteers and serving the evening’s dinner guests.

“Having the opportunity to serve the community alongside the Bread & Broth volunteers was an amazing experience for all of us,” he said. “To feed citizens in need; to share a conversation and positive experience is something that always leaves a lasting impression.”

Hayes, a member of Heavenly’s grooming team, was able to be a part of the B&B dinner experience due to the generosity of Heavenly Mountain Resort and the Vail EpicPromise Grant. The grant provides funds to host six Heavenly Mountain AAD dinners annually and give their employees the opportunity to participate in serving the nourishing meals and food giveaways and interfacing with the dinner guests who gratefully enjoy the meals they are provided.

In addition to Hayes, Tyler Lehman, grooming manager; Dave Hager, snowmaking manger; Gary Terrazas, snowmaker; and Frank Papandrea, environmental manager, took the opportunity to donate their time to be a part of Heavenly’s sponsorship dinner. B&B would like to extend a big thank you to Heavenly for their on-going participation in B&B’s dinner sponsorship program. Kudos to the great job that Heavenly’s grooming and snowmaking crew members do on the slopes and for their commitment to helping others.
