Gorham Bike & Ski Staff and Customer Appreciation Day at Black Mountain of Maine

We're celebrating our community and the team here Gorham Bike & Ski with a free day of skiing at Black Mountain of Maine on March 17th! 

2020 was a hard, long year but we made it through, together. There were more downs than ups but one thing we've been continually grateful for? Our staff and you, our customers. And now, we want to celebrate that.

It's our team that keeps things running and it's you that allows our team to keep busy. Day after day, we're so grateful for all of you in the community that continue to shop with us and let us help you find the best gear for your skiing and biking adventures. We're also extremely thankful for the incredible staff team we have across all of our stores from Saco and Kennebunk to Portland and Brunswick to Waterville, and over to Jackson. They are the glue that holds Gorham Bike & Ski together!

What You Can Expect

Using the sign up form below, all you need to do is plug in your information and let us know you're looking forward to hitting the slopes with us.

Our team will be there on March 17th with their family and friends and we can't wait to (safely and appropriately distanced) enjoy a day out on the snow with all of you. 

Thinking about how much our community's run deep in all that we do, we hope you'll join us in making whatever donation you can to one (or more!) of the selected charities below. We suggest $10 per person attending but we're grateful for any amount you can support them with. 

If alpine skiing isn't your jam, there will also be opportunity to snowshoe and cross country ski–a little something for everyone!
