Positive Community Connections

Teton Valley Foundation’s Offerings

By Amy Fradley TVF Executive Director

There is no denying that Teton Valley offers incredible cultural and recreational opportunities, as well as awe inspiring natural beauty. Whether you are a visitor to our valley or you are fortunate enough to call Teton Valley home, you likely already know: We are a closeknit community and we know how to have fun! If you want to see these community values in action, just head to one of Teton Valley Foundation’s anchoring programs either at Music on Main in the summer or the Kotler Ice Arena in the winter!

At Teton Valley Foundation, we create positive community connections through a shared love and appreciation for all that makes this valley so special. Whether it is at Music on Main, our summer concert series now in its 16th year, or at the Kotler Ice Arena in Victor each winter, we provide a wide array of programming for all to enjoy. If you haven’t felt the energy of live music at one of our shows in Victor City Park on a Thursday night, plan on it for next summer — it’s a celebration you won’t want to miss. When the snow starts to fly, the rink is the place to be for skating, hockey, and family fun.

For a full schedule please visit our website, (www.tetonvalleyfoundation.org), you’ll be glad you did!

At the Kotler Ice Arena, we provide fun, safe, affordable programs to skaters of all ages. Drop by to enjoy a Friday Night open skate session with your friends or family. We offer drop-in stick n’ puck and pond hockey sessions and we coach over 200 skaters weekly in our Youth Hockey program. Local children are invited to participate in our open skate series through the Winter Sports program, in partnership with the Teton County School District. Throughout the winter, Teton Valley Foundation hosts over 50 local and regional teams who travel to Teton Valley to participate in our adult pond hockey, women’s hockey and youth hockey tournaments. Experience the excitement of healthy competition and camaraderie on a tournament weekend and come cheer on your favorite team.

Beyond the love of being on the ice, we love that our rink is not just a place to skate but a place to grow and learn and build character and community. One of our patrons recently described her experience at the rink: “It is the intangible quality of coming together at a time of year when the elements keep us apart that push us to brave the wind and blowing snow to be part of something wonderful”.

If you want to relive your childhood winters skating on the pond with a little stick n’puck, or you are looking for a leisurely skate on a Friday night, we have what you are looking for. There is plenty of fun to be had any day of the week at the Kotler Ice Arena. At Teton Valley Foundation, we make the good life in Teton Valley even better. But don’t take our word for it. Come see for yourself. See you on the ice!

At the Kotler Ice Arena, TVF provides fun, safe, affordable programs to skaters of all ages.
