Loveland Ski Area is giving people another reason to visit the mountain this November, although this particular visit won’t involve skiing. The Colorado ski area is teaming up with Vitalant to host a blood drive on Thursday, November 19th, offering donors a free lift ticket for the 2026-2027 ski season.
Free Loveland Lift Ticket For Blood Donors
The blood drive will take place at Loveland Ski Area from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on November 19th. Anyone who donates blood during the event will receive a complimentary Loveland lift ticket valid any day during the 2026-27 season.
There are a few additional incentives for those who participate. Donors will also receive a Winnie-the-Pooh T-shirt and an entry into a drawing for a chance to win one of three $10,000 gift cards. The T-shirt and gift card giveaway are subject to additional terms and conditions.
Helping Save Lives Before Hitting The Slopes
The partnership also highlights the ongoing need for blood donations. Blood is regularly needed for patients dealing with medical emergencies, surgeries, cancer treatments, and other serious health conditions. A single donation can potentially help multiple patients, making community blood drives an important part of maintaining the nation’s blood supply.
Loveland Ski Area is encouraging interested participants to reserve an appointment ahead of the event rather than simply showing up. Those interested in donating can visit skiloveland.com/events to schedule their appointment and find additional information.
For those who haven’t purchased a season pass or are interested in giving Loveland Ski Area a try this winter, this event is a great way to get that access. Also it’s just a good thing to donate blood if you can, so get up there next Thursday.
