The program — titled “Who is responsible for what?” — will take place from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, in the Buffalo Room inside the County Commons in Frisco. The the event will feature a panel discussion about snowsports safety and law with Summit County Sheriff Jaime FitzSimons, Breckenridge-based attorney Jeffrey Burns, Keystone’s Senior Mountain Operations Director Julie Rust and Team Summit Snowboard Program Director Matt Voegtle.
