PROJECT ICARO
THE PURPOSE OF THE ASSOCIAZIONE “PROGETTO ICARO” IS TO PROMOTE THE SAFETY EDUCATION ON THE SNOW FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ENJOY SKIING AND RIDING OFF THE BEATEN TRACKS. THE ASSOCIATION WANTS TO TEACH YOUNG FREERIDERS TO RIDE MORE SAFELY AND UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS OF THE SNOW, INSTEAD OF SIMPLY FORBIDDING THEIR ACTIVITIES. ALREADY IN THE FIRST YEAR OF ITS ACTIVITIES IT HAS ORGANIZED SEVERAL EVENTS SPECIFICALLY FOR KIDS, BUT OPEN FOR ANYBODY WHO WAS INTERESTED TO JOIN.
Icaro has been an uncle, a teacher. In his smile we could find energy and a hug that gave us comfort. He was a hand that sweetly dried bitter tears. Icaro has given us a bundle, or should I say a backpack full of experience and emotions. Full to the edge of love. Icaro is always in our eyes and in our hearts. The guides that we have become now is greatly because of him. This is why White Line is proud to give its contribution with a day entirely dedicated to the safety of off-piste skiing for young people.
