Northstar California Resort, through Vail Resorts Echo, is pleased to announce the 2011.2012 grants it has awarded local non-profit organizations. Aimed at both protecting the beautiful natural resources that surround the resorts and helping build stronger communities where the Company's employees live and work, Vail Resorts Echo encompasses three core efforts environmental stewardship, charitable giving and community volunteer engagement.
Each year, Vail Resorts Echo contributes more than $6 million to over 150 local organizations that surround its resorts. This year, Northstar has partnered with 25 non-profits who are working to create a bright future for locals through education, environmental protection and awareness, and important services.

"These are just a few of the examples of the partnerships we are working to create through Vail Resorts Echo."
