The Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society partnered with the Central Council of California Ski Clubs to show the 65th Annual Warren Miller film, “Here, There & Everywhere.”

“Warren Miller is the one that ushers in winter ski season,” said Fran Long, Avalanche Ski & Sports Club member.

The film was a series of clips showing skiing and snowboarding in the vein of the original film by Warren Miller, who chronicled his two-year sojourn into the mountains skiing. It was narrated by Jonny Moseley. Some of the locations featured in the film were California, Montana, British Columbia, and Alaska.

The event is meant to be an annual gathering to bring attention to the forthcoming skiing and snowboarding season.

The event offered giveaways from local and national businesses. Entries also include the opportunity to win a two-person ski package to Switzerland.

The local chapter of the Central Council of California Ski Clubs is Avalanche Ski and Sports Club, which orchestrates and supervises ski trips.
