Skiing is more than just a sport; it’s a chance to experience good times in the mountains with friends and family. On International Go Skiing Day, Elan encourages all winter sports enthusiasts to take a break from work or school, and immerse themselves in the magic of skiing.

A Message from Dr. Glen Plake

I fell in love with skiing as a kid, not knowing why it felt so special. My mom would drop me off in the morning, and my friends and I would ski until evening—school suffered, of course. Some pursue education, others follow their dreams from a young age. Who’s to say which is right? But one thing’s for sure—no one ever regrets a day on snow! Glen Plake
