Find out more about Lisa: A love of the mountains inspired Lisa Marie Mercer to abandon a sucessful New York City fitness career to move to Colorado. Now, she's the owner of Mountain Sport Fitness and the author of Open Your Heart With Winter Fitness. Lisa has worked as the fitness coach for Ski Portillo and other prestigious ski camps. |
Because of the Mormon Church's influence of the California vote on Proposition 8, gay-rights activists are advocating boycotting both the ski resorts, and the Sundance Film Festival. Apparently, the Mormon Church encouraged its members to work to pass California's Proposition 8 by volunteering their time and money for the campaign. As a result, thousands of dedicated and homophobic Mormons worked as grassroots volunteers, while donating millions of dollars to the campaign.

to Colorado ski areas. What are your thoughts?
