The red balls bounce down a hill at Purgatory every year as part of the Red Ball Express fundraiser for local Rotary clubs. Locals  win up to $5,000 if the numbered balls match their ticket numbers. The annual event also includes downhill ski races, and the Pine River Rotary team took second overall, barely missing first place.
