On February 7th, Subaru of America, Inc. and Make-A-Wish Utah made a boy's wish come true by joining forces at the Subaru WinterFest event at Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort, UT. The wish of adventurous and sports-loving
11-year-old Derek, is to go fishing in Alaska. As a proud supporter of Make-A-Wish, Subaru is honored to sponsor this wish for such an inspirational and resilient child.
Derek, who was diagnosed with liver failure, learned that his wish to go to Alaska with his family will come true this spring during a surprise wish reveal ceremony at Subaru WinterFest - a lifestyle expo that stops at some of the best mountains across the country and features free ski and snowboard lessons/demos, and interactive experiences for families and winter enthusiasts. This 2014 - 2015 ski season, Subaru will hold fourteen Subaru WinterFest events at resorts across the country.
For Derek, the mountain-man-in-training, it was a special and memorable moment as he discovered through clues popping up around the Snowbird Village that he and his family would soon be venturing to Alaska to see mystic-blue glaciers and catch salmon.
