Adopt A Penguin

Adopt a Penguin 

 Adopt a real live penguin! Diamond Peak wants to let you know about an exciting opportunity to help save the endangered penguins in the Antarctic. You can adopt a penguin for as little as $25 and in return, you’ll get an adoption certificate and a photo of your adopted animal. For $100 or $250, you’ll receive a plush toy, a framed certificate, a gift box and the satisfaction of knowing that your little penguin in the Antarctic will have a happier life.            

Diamond Pete is Diamond Peak’s mascot who is closely associated with the Bee Ferrato Child Ski Center. Bee Ferrato picked up a yellow-eyed penguin when she was walking along the beaches of New Zealand as a little girl. She developed an interest in penguins and years later she visited Diamond Pete’s brothers and sisters in Antarctica. It was about that time when Diamond Pete swam and waddled his way to Diamond Peak Ski Resort in Incline Village, Nevada, because he heard about the fresh powder and family-friendly terrain. Pete hangs out in Antarctica during the summer where it’s a bit cooler and makes his way back to Diamond Peak for winter with a belly full of fish.

Help Diamond Pete’s family by adopting one of his friends. Each adoption is symbolic and your donation will be used to fight threats like habitat loss and poaching. Click here to adopt now!
