Paul Hill

Memorial Program

In memory of Paul Hill, a remarkable young man who loved the outdoors and skiing, Showdown Montana is honored to introduce the Paul Hill Memorial Program. Each winter, this program will provide all students, teachers & support staff from White Sulphur Springs Public Schools, grades K-12, with a complimentary season pass to Showdown, allowing them to enjoy the slopes throughout the season. We are honored to share Paul's passion for skiing and the outdoors with future generations, celebrating his spirit and love for winter fun. 

Showdown will be at the White Sulphur Springs School all day on Monday, November 18th to take photos and print passes for any students, teachers and support staff that swing by. If you are unable to pick up your pass on the 18th, you will be able to pick up your pass at ShedQuarters on your first trip to Showdown this winter.

We'd like to offer our heartfelt appreciation to the Hill Family and the WSS Public Schools for allowing us to honor Paul's legacy in this way. We are excited to see the students of White Sulphur Public School on our slopes and hope they find the joy and happiness that the lifelong sport of skiing brings to so many.

With love,

Katie Boedecker, President
Avery Patrick, Vice President

  • If you're picking up your pass at ShedQuarters, please bring a form of ID or proof of enrollment/employment with White Sulphur Springs Public Schools to help us verify eligibility.

  • We understand that some families may have already purchased passes for the current season, and we very much appreciate your contribution towards supporting Showdown. However, we won't be providing refunds for the passes already purchased. We hope you understand.

  • Currently, only the season pass is included in the Paul Hill Memorial Program. However, it is our goal to add rental options and assistance in acquiring gear in future seasons to make skiing more accessible for everyone.

  • The fee for the PE Program covers the lesson only. The lift ticket and rental equipment are included at no charge. Regardless of whether students have their own equipment or a season pass, the fee is the same.

    If your student is a Showdown Season Passholder, we ask the schools to require them to participate in the PE Program under the same rules as everyone else. The point of the PE Program is to provide lessons based on students' ability. Anyone can become a better skier or boarder. That is the point of this education. We have lessons for all skill levels.
