in Announcements, Recent News by Katie Green Leave a comment

The sponsorship list for the US Phillips 66 Masters National Championships keeps on growing. In keeping with the Green Mountain State theme Vermont Flannel, Darn Tough Socks, and the Vermont Orthopedic Clinic (VOC) have signed up in support of the event.

Vermont Flannel will make sure racers stay toasty warm with the donation of their top of the line scarves for all class medalists in the Championship SG race. Just to be sure no one is left out, they have provided three full sized fleece blankets to be raffled off to lucky winners at the Wednesday night welcome and awards party. Discount purchases will be available at the party – maybe something soft and fuzzy for Valentine’s Day is in order. In addition, they will be offering a 10% discount to all masters racers interested in making a purchase. Go to vermontflannel.com pick out any object and in checking out enter the code “skicomfy.

Vermont’s Darn Tough Socks will be stuffing the podium winners’ stockings for the Super Combined event on Thursday evening. Well tested in Vermont’s winter weather, Darn Tough is known for their ski-specific socks, as well as those covering a wide range of outdoor activities.

A long supporter of masters ski racing, the Vermont Orthopedic Clinic is once again stepping up for the National Championships. Known as the “go to” clinic in the East for all those with creaky, well-worn joints, the VOC has generously helped out with a wide range of competitive skiing events over the years.

Plans are also getting finalized for a craft beer tasting session at Thursday evening’s awards, and a craft distillery taste-fest on Friday evening.
