Snowboarding Santas return to chopping up Maine slopes for charity

Santa is back to “pull” it on the ski slopes.
More than 230 skiers and snowboarders Kris Kringles went to a western Maine resort on Sunday to raise money for charity.
Happy Saint Nicks took a break last year because of the global pandemic. But they are back to kick off the ski season in full holiday attire, which includes white beards, red hats, and red outfits.
A sea of red Santa suits tumbled down the mountain, making wide spins as their beards fluttered in the icy wind. At least one Grinch in a blue vest snuck into the compound, disguised in a Santa coat and hat.
The event takes place in the western Maine town of Newry home to the Sunday River Ski Resort, the state’s busiest area.
Before rushing through the snow, Santa Claus All must donate a minimum of $20, helping to support local entertainment and educational programs. The event raised several thousand dollars for the Sunday River Community Foundation, a local charity.
