Protect our Winters has partnered with Leeward Cinema for the release of their film, “My Own Two Feet,” and are inviting POW members to get involved this Fall and use the film to raise funds for local sustainability and/or educational efforts. “My Own Two Feet” is the first feature-length action sports film shot entirely using sustainable methods and features athletes such as Josh Dirksen, Erik Leines, Jeremy Jones, Dave Downing, Temple Cummings, Chris Demoslki, Tom Burt, Stacy Thomas, Chad Otterstrom, and friends. As global warming impacts our mountain climates, it’s time for the influential leaders in the industry to stand up and make a statement. Athletes, industry and film producers have to lead by example, showcasing a more responsible attitude as it relates to the environment, to preserve the winters we all enjoy.

We want to use this film to spread the word about sustainability and offering it to our members to raise funds for their local environmental or educational efforts. POW will provide the film and the marketing art to create posters, ads, etc. and in exchange, we ask that you host the film showing and that all donations/ticket receipts raised be donated to POW and directed to an environmental initiative near you. Big or small, it all makes a difference.

Please contact us at info@protectourwinters.org for more information.

Organic POW t-shirts are available….to any new member who makes a contribution of $40 or more.  Both mens and women’s sizes are available so please don’t forget to specify size.  And of course, we’ll throw in a sticker too.

We’re proud to welcome Vans, Burton, Grand Targhee Resort and First Cornerstone Foundation as valued contributors to Protect Our Winters. We truly appreciate their contributions and look forward to working with them to help change how the winter sports industry addresses climate change.
