Park City is a community that loves to give. More than 100 non-profits benefited from Live PC Give PC, the mountain town’s annual day of 24 hours of giving that is facilitated by the Park City Community Foundation.

Thanksgiving in Park City signals the beginning of the ski season. Unlike many parts of the country, we can actually hit the slopes before we celebrate being thankful for the mountain paradise we get to call home.
