QUOTES

Brian Krill, USSA Club Development Manager
This special offer helps provide some real value to USSA member clubs. Essentially, any program looking to invest in a capital project for snowmaking or venue improvement can start with a generous donation from HKD through this discount. In working with a resort, the club can bring this to the table.

Thanks to HKD snowmaking capabilities, the U.S. Ski Team Speed Center at Copper Mountain is truly a world-class venue. The quality of HKD allows for a full downhill course early season with prime snow conditions.
