The purpose of the Vermont Ski Museum Hall of Fame is:
To honor athletes, special contributors, and pioneers of Vermont skiing who promoted and/or
contributed to the sport of skiing in Vermont; to document the histories of Inductees in the Museum's collection; and to recognize their accomplishments through the Induction ceremony and the Hall of Fame exhibit.

The Hall of Fame committee looks at candidates in three categories:
