Venue:
Hummingbird Lodge at Whitewater Ski Resort
Community:
Nelson
HOW MANY LAPS CAN YOU DO?

Join us up at Whitewater for a meaningful day in the mountains as we remember Alex Zimich and raise awareness and funds for KERPA — the Kootenay Emergency Response Physicians Association.

On July 4 from 7:00am to 5:00pm, Rob Zimich, Alex’s dad, and Dr. Nic Sparrow from KERPA will be running and hiking laps from the Hummingbird Lodge to the top of the Silver King chair. Whether you’d like to challenge yourself with a lap or two, cheer Rob on, or simply come visit and learn more about KERPA’s lifesaving work — everyone is welcome.

We’ll have DJs Les Go and Charlie Holiday spinning on the Hummingbird Lodge Patio plus a barbecue starting at 12:00pm, so you can grab a delicious bite up in the alpine and spend some time with our amazing community.
