Henniker, NH - Childhood Cancer Lifeline Weekend at Pats Peak, held Feb. 27-28, raised nearly $19,000, providing much needed support for New Hampshire families who have a child battling cancer. This is the 10th Year of the Childhood Cancer Lifeline Event at the southern New Hampshire ski area. Throughout the past ten years, the event has raised more the $175,000 for the lifeline to help New Hampshire families.


“The Childhood Cancer Lifeline of New Hampshire is deeply touched by the outpouring of generosity from the community and area businesses, who continue to show their support for this all volunteer organization," says Sylvia Pelletier, President of the Childhood Cancer Lifeline of New Hampshire. "These funds will help meet the ever-increasing needs of families facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis. The Childhood Cancer Lifeline extends their heartfelt thanks to Pats Peak and all of its employees, for their continued creative and enthusiastic support. Pulling off an event of this magnitude without their support would be impossible.”

In addition to hosting the event, this year Pats Peak again coordinated a weeklong donation request campaign. Visitors to The Peak, along with Peak employees, papered the lodges with well wishes. The Childhood Cancer Lifeline also received a portion of the lift ticket sales during Pats Peak March Mountain Madness deals, March 1-3, donating $4,500 in direct lift ticket sales during this three-day special.
