Following the Calcutta auction of the pros, we will begin our live auction portion. You will also have a chance to support our charitable partner with your silent auction bids. Proceeds of the 3 auctions will benefit the US Ski & Snowboard Team Foundation (USSA).

Calcutta Estimated payouts will be as follows*:
