Sponsorship
This isn’t about marketing — it’s about showing up, building trust, and creating something that lasts in mountain communities.
Why We Need You
SOTS is growing fast—like a snowball rolling downhill. New chapters are launching, more professionals are stepping up, and engagement is skyrocketing.
To sustain this growth, we need sponsors who share our belief that connection and community conversations can save lives in the backcountry.
What We Do
Each Chapter hosts 4 x FREE live events (December–March). With 7 communities on board for 2025/26 season - that’s 28 events!
Share snowpack video updates from local operators in each community between live events. This is especially important during major snowpack changes (e.g., Mountain Conditions Reports with Whitewater Ski Resort and Backcountry Skiing Canada)
Collaborate with local avalanche educators
Create space for Avalanche Canada forecasters and field technicians to break down regional forecasts and connect directly with local communities.
Work with local ski hills and forecasters to keep information current and community-rooted
Build connections between avalanche professionals and their communities—fostering trust, safety, and stewardship in the backcountry
What Your Sponsorship Enables
Covers back-end admin, insurance, and outreach that keep SOTS going year-round
Funds livestream and filming to reach beyond venue walls
Expands SOTS into more mountain communities—growing connection, trust, and safety in the backcountry
Sponsorship doesn’t just sustain SOTS—it grows it.
