The 2013 Celebrity Smile Challenge will mark Operation Smile’s 2nd Annual Event in Park City, commemorating more than 200,000 surgeries performed to date, transforming the lives of children born with cleft lips and cleft palates around the world.

This event will be hosted at The Canyons Resort, followed by a private dinner, on Saturday, March 30, 2013. Park City, Los Angeles and Manhattan business and community leaders, celebrity Smile Ambassadors and the philanthropically-minded elite have agreed to lend their support to ensure children around the world are given a new smile. This year’s Event Chairs are Billy Bush of Access Hollywood, Jennifer Salke, President of NBC Entertainment, and 3 Moms on a Mission’s Stephanie Argyros, Krista Jajonie and Daneia Sanadiki. Henry Salke is also returning as Junior Event Chair.

Teams of six racers will compete against one another in a head-to-head dual slalom race where best overall team score wins.  Each team will consist of one celebrity skier, one Olympic skier, and four amateur skiers/Operation Smile donors. The team with the best overall finish time will be recognized during an award luncheon at The Red Tail Grill directly following the race.

Sponsors will have the opportunity to be involved through a variety of sponsorship levels ranging from the Title Sponsor down to a Junior Ski Sponsor.
