Legendary skier, Luggi Foeger, served in 10th Tenth Mountain Division during WWII before designing the ski area and was the first Ski School Director at Diamond Peak. Honoring the mountain’s military heritage in a way, the ski resort participates in Achieve Tahoe’s annual military sports camp to take a group of veterans who had been injured in the line of duty up to the slopes. The local nonprofit has provided adaptive sports for people with disabilities for over 50 years with many resorts in the Tahoe Basin supporting this program. On another note, Incline Village schools incorporate an engineering theme from their curriculum into each year’s Dummy Downhill at Diamond Peak, where the local hospital, fire department, and other local health organizations table at the event to promote community benefit programs to residents and employees.
