World Cup skiing returning to Killington in November

U.S. Ski Team officials have announced that World Cup ski racing will return to Vermont’s Killington Resort this November, and they hope to make the event an annual tradition.

The event will be held over Thanksgiving weekend, on November 25 and 26, 2017. The resort will host the same two events as last year – women’s slalom and giant slalom – over the two days.

Last year’s event drew roughly 30,000 ski fans to Killington.
