LaBella Proudly Sponsors the IBSF Bobsled & Skeleton World Championships and Supports Major Facility Improvements at Mt. Van Hoevenberg!

LaBella Associates was honored to be an Official Regional Sponsor of the IBSF Bobsled & Skeleton World Championships, which took place March 6-9 and 14-15, 2025, at Mt. Van Hoevenberg in Lake Placid, New York.

Enhancing a World-Class Facility

As part of our commitment to supporting international competition and athlete development, LaBella Associates, in collaboration with Phinney Design Group, is working for the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) to bring major improvements to Mt. Van Hoevenberg. These enhancements include track upgrades and renovations to key amenity buildings, ensuring that the facility continues to provide a top-tier experience for athletes, spectators, and the community for years to come.

A Vital Hub for Sliding Sports

Mt. Van Hoevenberg is one of only two Olympic-style bobsled, skeleton, and luge tracks in the United States, with the other located in Park City, Utah. As a historic and essential training and competition venue, these upgrades will solidify its role as a premier destination for international sliding sports.

Looking Ahead

We are proud to play a role in shaping the future of Mt. Van Hoevenberg and look forward to seeing the impact of these improvements during future sliding events.
