JESS 4 Kids The Jessica Eaman Ski Scholarship provides nordic skiing and snow shoeing opportunities to youth in the North Okanagan

The JESS4KIDS fund (Jessica Eaman Ski Scholarship 4 Kids) created in Jessica’s memory, provides funds to children and youth who would not otherwise be able to afford cross country skiing or snowshoeing opportunities. So far ... The Jess 4 Kids team has raised nearly $30 000 for youth to get outdoors and active! Organizers of her upcoming ski day hope the proceeds will pay for that scene to carry o

n, for both kids and Eaman. The annual J.E.S.S 4 Kids Fundraiser is held at Sovereign Lake Nordic Centre. This great ski day event is held on the cross country ski trails to raise money to give kids in the North Okanagan the chance to try Nordic skiing or snowshoeing. Jessica Eaman was a vibrant young woman who died tragically in a motor vehicle accident in March of 2012 at the age of 26. Jessica was passionate about the outdoors and the environment, skiing, sustainable living, and building a strong and vibrant community. Jessica was an avid cross country skier at Sovereign Lake Nordic Club. She started skiing as a child in the Jackrabbits program. She raced, coached, and at the time of her accident, she was working at Sovereign Lake and studying at UBC. She was a face recognized for her smile, her expertise in fitting newbies up with skis and describing the trails. She played a large part in the day to day operations and showed immense support for the children and youth in the Jackrabbits program at Sovereign Lake Nordic Club.
