Modelled on the celebrated Swiss event, which took place at the town of Villars-sur-Olion last January, there will be several competition categories — general public, corporate, junior, senior, paralympic and racing — so that snow-lovers of all skill levels can participate. Team members, including both skiers and snowboarders, will rotate position around the clock in relay fashion as they accumulate distance and sponsorship funds for the cause. The objective of the three-day event is to raise $150,000 for the Montréal-based JDRF, which is looking for a cure for diabetes and its complications.

This is a great weekend for participants and spectators alike as a roster of international sports and entertainment celebrities are expected to hit the slopes and attend the après-ski celebrations and entertainment. For more information, click on Grand Prix de 24 de Tremblant at www.tremblant.com
