The event benefits the Nevada Donor Network, an organization devoted to facilitating organ and tissue donation for transplant recipients in Nevada and beyond.

As one of Lee Canyon's most inspiring winter traditions, the race highlights the life-saving power of organ donation and celebrates the legacy of Chris Ruby, a young snowboarder who had registered as an organ donor and, in doing so, helped save or improve the lives of more than 90 people—including a close family member. The Ruby Cup welcomes skiers and snowboarders of all levels for a family-friendly race from 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with awards presented at 4:00 p.m.

Registration for the race is $20 and can be completed online or at the event. Lee Canyon will cover the registration fees for current organ donors and anyone who registers as a donor at the event. Additional event details are available at www.leecanyonlv.com.
