Read to Ski
Numerica Credit Union and Schweitzer have partnered together with the Lake Pend Oreille School District to launch a new literacy initiative for local middle school students. Numerica's Read to Ski Program encourages 7th and 8th graders to build reading habits by offering a unique reward: a free lift ticket to Schweitzer for the 2026/2027 winter season.



How it works:
  • Open to all 7th and 8th grade students in the Lake Pend Oreille School District
  • Read and log 10+ hours by Friday, November 20, 2026 (download form here)
  • Submit your completed log to your teacher
  • Receive a free junior single-day lift ticket to Schweitzer for the 2026/2027 season
Not into skiing? Students can complete their form in exchange for 2 movie tickets to Sandpoint Cinemas instead!

Not only does this encourage students to explore the magic of reading, but it also encourages students to experience the joy of snow sports.
