What a kudos to Winter Park Resort for scoring the 1st International two day on snow demo and free ride fest in conjunction with the Denver SIA tradeshow. SIA is all about snowsport retailers getting together to share new ideas, gear and equipment that we, the public, will soon get to enjoy! The Tradeshow, which used to take place in Vegas, is being held at the Denver Convention Center. Following the show, for the first time ever, is a demo and free ride fest for the attendees including Alpine, snowboard, tele, cross-country and snowshoe gear. In addition to Winter Park Resort, Devil’s Thumb Resort in nearby Tabernash will be the site for cross-country and snowshoe events. Winter Park stands to gain great notoriety from those in the snow business as we get to showcase our winter destination!

Beaver Village Condominiums is providing lodging and special deals for the SIA participants. Check out our website for more info on nightly lodging and accommodations in town!

Winter Park Carnival is almost here! This fun event started as Mary Jane’s Birthday Bash several years ago. As you may or may not know, Mary Jane was the infamous entreprenuer who made her way in Winter Park as a prostitute in the late 1800’s. Her unique talents awarded her a special place in the history of Winter Park and she is notably referenced when locals say “they skied Mary Jane’s backside”!

These days, Winter Park celebrates the festivities as a carnival with parade, dog sled races, music at the park, campfire in the park, pancake breakfast, and so much more! The Winter Park Carnival weekend will be fun for the whole family. We invite you to stay with us and take advantage of our great location which is close to town and the ski resort! Check out the schedule at Winter Park Visitor Center.

Winter Park Resort also celebrates 70 Year Anniversary!
