Sunny and Warmer - pond skimming event update AND open next week!

Lots of SUN today with a daytime high in the lower 50's.  Great day to Ski and Ride!

Slide and Splash update:

The pond skimming event scheduled for Sunday has been moved to next Saturday 3/22.  Sunday's weather forecast changed dramatically yesterday.  A late season snow storm is forecasted to move through our area during the day Sunday lasting into Monday.  Trying to hold the pond skimming event on a day forecasted to be in the mid 30's with cloudy conditions and falling precip, does not work.  Our end of the season pond skimming event is a celebration of a seasons worth of fun, hard work by our staff and the arrival of Spring.  We are looking forward to this event and hope to see you on 3/22. 

Park Party portion of the Slide and Splash Weekend is still on.  This weekend will feature expanded Terrain Park features, great music on the snow and deals.  30% of lift tickets and a $59 lift and rental package.  Discounted skiing and riding along with 25 trails open and tons of snow = incredible value and good times!
