Own a piece of Alpine Meadows history

Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows (SVAM) has replaced the chairs on the Lakeview lift at Alpine Meadows and generously donated the old chairs to SAF to help support the athletes and coaches participating in the SVAM Ski and Snowboard Teams. SAF provides financial assistance to SVAM team athletes and for continuing education programs for coaches. SAF’s goals are to provide accessibility to teams and high-level competition, as well as enhance the quality of coaching, instruction and development, of our aspiring athletes.

All proceeds from the sale of chairs will go directly to providing scholarships for those athletes and coaches.

Chair pickup

There are two options for pickup/delivery of chairs:

1. Pick up by the purchaser in the Alpine Meadows Subway parking lot, until Friday, October 30, at a time to be scheduled with SAF.  Please contact  scholarships@svamf.org to schedule your pick-up time. The chairs can be loaded into a pick-up truck by 2 or 3 adults, but there will be no assistance available for help with the pick-up. Please bring your receipt for proof of purchase upon pick-up.

Ski chair customized by Mountain Forge.

The chairs are being sold as-is and will not include a stand or any other enhancements that may be required for you to fully enjoy your new chair. If you would like to add a stand or perform additional custom work on the chair, SAF has teamed up with the Standteiner Family of Mountain Forge, a local blacksmith shop in Truckee with deep roots in the SVAM community. Mountain Forge has graciously agreed to split the profits of any work done on these chairs with SAF and any enhancements made to your chair will further help the athletes and coaches involved in the SVAM Ski and Snowboard Teams.

Contact Mountain Forge at info@mtnforge.com for an estimate of any custom work that you would like performed on your chair. Please be sure to reference SAF if you are interested in reaching out.
