Warren Miller's "Ticket to Ride" Movie Fundraiser for Waterford Education Foundation and Unite For HER

Get ready to celebrate winter with Warren Miller’s Ticket to Ride on Friday, 13 December 2013, doors open at 6 pm and show starts at 7pm at Waterford High School Auditorium on 15 Rope Ferry Road in Waterford and support two worthwhile causes, the Waterford Education Foundation and Unite for HER.  Enter for a chance to win one of three ski vacations as part of Warren Miller's World Tour Sweepstakes as well as a brand new Snowboard and bindings donated by Action Sports in Old Saybrook.

The newest chapter in the legendary film series, Ticket to Ride will take filmgoers on an action-packed journey with the world’s best skiers and snowboarders. Witness athletes at their career-best, and discover the paths that put them at the top of the steepest peaks in the 64th annual ski and snowboard film, Warren Miller’s Ticket to Ride.

Experience the immense energy of the world’s most sought-after destinations, and discover the “epicenter of big lines” in Alaska, Montana’s Big Sky Country and the exotic winter playgrounds of Kazakhstan, Iceland and Greenland. The trams and trains in Switzerland will climb to Mt. Eiger, as the fishing boats in Norway carry you to the islands of Ålesund. Once again, winter begins with Warren Miller, and it’s time to get your Ticket to Ride.

Look for world-class action sport athletes as diverse as the terrain, including World Cup champions and Olympians Seth Wescott, Ted Ligety and Julia Mancuso, plus legendary ski mountaineers like Chris Davenport, and freeskiers Colby James West and Sean Pettit.
