25th Annual Alliance Ski Trip featuring Young Life and Generous.Life
Join Alliance, Young Life, and Generous.Life for an amazing ski trip in Fraser, CO!
Twenty-five years ago, Alliance Ministries and Young Life began hosting ski trips for men at Young Life's $50 million property, Crooked Creek, in the renowned Winter Park/Mary Jane ski areas. The goal was to provide men serving in full-time ministry with a trip they might otherwise never afford.
To date, we have hosted over 160 different ministries, uniquely bringing together the business and ministry worlds. With the addition of our new mission partner, Generous.Life, we will welcome an incredible group of men from around the globe for an unforgettable experience.
These trips have become so popular that hosts Chuck Scott (Young Life) and Don Ankenbrandt (Alliance Ministries / Generous.Life Alabama) now offer two separate weeks to accommodate the growing demand.
Consider joining us for an incredible experience in 2025!
Week One: Sunday, January 26th - Thursday, January 30th
Week Two: Sunday, February 2nd - Thursday, February 6th
We have space for 45–50 men each week, and spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis—so sign up now!
This event offers thoughtful conversations, incredible adventures, and an unforgettable experience. Spots are limited and fill up quickly, so register today!
For questions, contact Don Ankenbrandt at (205) 229-2491 or [email protected].
