For the Love of Skiing

The late Alice “Putzi” DeGruttola loved skiing, and lived her life around the sport. From skiing competitively as a young girl in Austria, to opening her own Ski Chalet in New Castle, She instilled upon us a love and respect for all winter sports. She supplied generations of families from childhood to adulthood with equipment, winter wear and most of all with expert advice and a smile.

Putzi and family were all passionate or competitive skiers, and always a fixture at World Cup Skiing events around the world. Now in our 2nd and 3rd generations, we are still family owned and operated. Our history and experience go into every customer we work with!
