Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the current status of Project Olympic?
    We have the land under contract, but to ensure this vision becomes a reality, we must purchase it by the end of this year. Without donor support, these parcels could be lost to for-profit developers who could build high-end residential or hotel towers, changing the fabric of Olympic Valley forever. To take the next critical step, we are seeking donors to launch the Olympic Valley Foundation, which will be the driving force behind Project Olympic and future community projects and initiatives.
