Event Supports the Future of Collegiate Ski Racing
Reno, NV — The University of Nevada Ski Team is proud to announce its annual fundraising event, the “Denim & Diamonds” Gala, taking place Saturday, November 1, 2025. This special evening will unite alumni, ski industry partners, and community supporters for a night celebrating the Nevada Wolf Pack’s proud ski racing tradition — and the bright future of collegiate skiing.
Led by Head Coach Cam Smith, formerly with the Head Race Department, the Nevada Ski Team continues to build on its legacy as one of the region’s top collegiate programs. Funds raised through the gala and accompanying online auction directly support training, equipment, travel, and competition expenses for student-athletes representing the University of Nevada on the national stage.

Supporting More Than a Team — Supporting the Sport
“This event is about more than just raising funds,” said Coach Cam Smith. “It’s about sustaining collegiate ski racing — giving these athletes the resources to compete, learn, and represent something bigger than themselves. Every contribution helps keep that tradition alive.”
Collegiate ski racing programs often operate on limited budgets, relying heavily on community support and industry partnerships. Proceeds from the Denim & Diamonds Gala will not only benefit the Nevada Ski Team but also contribute to the visibility and longevity of college-level racing across the country.
