2009: Latimer House 2nd Year
For Immediate Release
HIGHER LOVE AT POWDERHORN
Resort supports local charity to raise support and awareness in February
Mesa, CO, February 10, 2009---
Mix beautiful Powderhorn Resort, a proud sponsor like Grand Junction
Subaru and winter sports, and you have a combination that has the power
to help people in need.
Mark February 14th on your calendar to
play at Powderhorn and support a fund-raising effort for victims of
domestic violence. One dollar of every lift ticket sold will be donated
to the Latimer House Counseling & Advocacy Center and $300 will be
contributed by Powderhorn’s partner, Grand Junction Subaru. General
donations are being taken at the resort as well as Grand Junction
Subaru.
This is the second year for Powderhorn to support this
program. Steve Bailey, President and CEO, has a sincere desire to make
a difference in the lives of those affected by domestic violence.
“Latimer House is providing a very valuable and important service to
our community,” said Bailey. “Higher Love was designed to raise not
only funds but awareness of the reality of domestic violence and sexual
assault in Mesa County.”
