We established the Clay Soper Memorial Fund (CSMF) because we wanted to make a difference in Clay's memory. His tragic death was something we felt needed to be talked about and understood. He should not have died - he made a bad decision that is common within party culture today. He died because of what he and his friends DIDN'T know. CSMF has three initiatives: 1) "If They Had Known" - a documentary spoken BY kids TO kids about the risks associated with current party culture. 2) Clay Connections - a program partnered with Youth Enrichment Services (YES) in Boston, MA 3) Clay Soper Memorial Weekend Championship - an annual two-day USSA-sanctioned alpine ski race held at Clay's home mountain, Waterville Valley, NH.
