This winter, ACE has teamed up with Protect Our Winters (with support from The North Face) to bring you HOT PLANET/COOL ATHLETES – where professional snowboarders and skiers coming to high schools to co-present with ACE Educators to teach you the latest in climate science and solutions, and remind you that we need to stand up to save our snow.

On Wednesday, we rocked a presentation for 600+ students at East High School with snowboarders Forrest Shearer and Caroline Gleich… and we’re not stopping there!

We’re bringing a tweaked out and mountain-specialized version of the ACE Assembly to high schools in Utah, Colorado, California and maybe even a few more amazing places yet to be announced – and we’ve got an Olympic gold medalist, 5-time X Games gold medalist and many more athletes lined up to be a part of this collaboration.

Keep up with us right here and at acespace.org/pow for the latest schedules, updates, videos and pictures. Next week, we’re going back to Aspen – – – – – -> X GAMES HERE WE COME!
