WIA Awarded 30 Winter Camp Scholarships
In 2011 WIA awarded 30 Winter Camp scholarships to youth for participation in ski programs at Big Sky and Moonlight resorts. These scholarships allow all Big Sky youth the opportunity to learn the skill of skiing/snowboarding in their own backyard. “The scholarship program positively impacted not only my son, but my whole family. Skiwees was just what my family needed. The Ski program was wonderful and we would not have been able to afford to put him in ski camp without the scholarship. It gave my son another much needed outdoor recreation activity to get some physical fitness. It also gave his hardworking father a much needed break and a chance to go snowboarding on his own. Thank you so much and I hope that the winter camp scholarships will be available next winter."





AUGUST 12, 2012
Annual Croquet Fundraiser held at the Big Sky Golf Course.
The 2012 Tournamet will be on Sunday, August 12th.
Women in Action's main fundraiser of the year is an annual croquet tournament in August held at the Big Sky Golf Course Driving Range. Proceeds from the event go directly to fund WIA's four programs. This is our main fundraising event and the revenue generated helps send kids to camp, receive urgent medical care, provides educational opportunities and allows for free participation in our highly utilized mental health program. In addition to generating much needed funds this event raises awareness of the existence of families in need in our community despite our resort environment.
