The Truckee Ski & Snowboard Swap is a beloved annual community event hosted by the Truckee-Donner Recreation & Park District (TDRPD), scheduled this year for Saturday, November 1, 2025, from 11 AM to 4 PM at the Steve Randall Community Recreation Center in Truckee, CA.

The event offers families and individuals the opportunity to both buy and sell new and used winter sports equipment, making essential gear affordable and accessible ahead of the winter season. Attendees can discover bargains on skis, snowboards, boots, winter clothing, and other accessories, while local ski shops and resort representatives are present to answer equipment questions and provide guidance.

Key Features & Community Impact

Free for all ages: Admission is open to everyone, ensuring broad community participation.

Silent auction: Includes coveted items like season passes, lift tickets, local gift cards, and specialty experiences.

Scholarship support: All proceeds from the swap—through both item sales and the silent auction—are directed to TDRPD’s Scholarship Fund, which helps community members afford participation in TDRPD programs. For 2025, the scholarship fund is being expanded to $35,000 to offer increased support.

Proceeds directly support youth programs including Buddy Werner Truckee Ski Team, Girls Volleyball, Youth Basketball, and youth hockey. The current structure ensures that every dollar raised has tangible impact in expanding access to recreation in Truckee.

By contributing, you will be supporting not just a successful swap event, but also empowering families, youth, and individuals to engage in healthy, active outdoor lives that they might not otherwise afford.
