YES Selected as Benefiting Charity for Custom Designed Skis at Parlor Skis

November 8, 2019 by Jamie Burch Leave a Comment

Youth Enrichment Services (YES) was recently selected by Parlor Skis as the benefiting charity for custom designed skis. Local artist, Joe Wardell, created these skis with YES in mind, and they are currently being sold at Parlor Skis.

Joe’s work contains a lot of text and landscape imagery.  The design of the skis includes the words “YES OUI SI” along the length of the ski, with more text and a landscape backdrop. The skis are being manufactured and sold in a variety of lengths and models.

A portion of all sales on these skis are directly benefiting YES youth programs. Click here to learn more.

Parlor was founded on shared passion for skiing, New England, and designing and building great products. Each pair of skis is made to order in their East Boston factory.
