New Years Eve Celebration in Winter Park, Colorado

Come celebrate the end of 2009 with some high country fun in Winter Park Colorado.  Spend the day skiing and then head to Hideaway Park in the Town of Winter Park and be treated to some free sledding, rail skates, hot chocolate, human bowling and some warm fire pits with fireworks going off at 10pm.  Great fun for the whole family and if you take it easy on the booze get up early and hit the slopes and start a perfect 2010 by making some turns down the Winter Park Resort slopes.

If the family thing is not your cup of tea there is the Grand County Blues Society New Years Eve Celebration that will be held up at Silverado II Resort and Event Center.  Bring in the New Year in style, blues style! Great food, company and dancing music with champagne toast.  Featured artist is Nick Moss & The Flip Tops with Lurrie Bell.  Time is still to be announced for the the blues celebration.

If blues and the family thing both are not what you are looking for then head out to one of the hopping restaurants at the resort or in town.  I recommend the Cheeky Monk, Tabernash Tavern or the Sushi Bar.

New Years Eve comes once a year.  Don’t waste the one night with a lame night out down in the city.  Make a special evening with special memories and have a Winter Park, Colorado New Years Eve.

Winter Park opening day liftsWinter Park Ski Area Opening for 2009/10 Ski Season

Yes, I know I have already done two blogs about opening day up here at Winter Park but I’m getting very excited for this coming ski season.  We have been getting quite a bit of early snow and the predictions for this El Nino winter call for lots of big wet snows.  All the runs up at the resort are now covered in some white fluffy and Warren Millers movie Dynasty hits town this week on October 28th.

So I guess what I am trying to say is I am getting amped to take some turns at Winter Park.  I have also heard that the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce will be introducing Powder Addiction, the new snow cat skiing operation in Winter Park on October 28th ,the night of the Warren Miller movie.  Powder Addiction will be an offering by the owners of Grand Adventures, the longtime snowmobile tour and rental operator here in Winter Park.  That means we will have a snow cat skiing operation based right here in Winter Park, Colorado.  I will do a whole other blog on that this coming week.

So get all your ski gear garb out and get it washed up and tuned and lets bring on the ski season.  Only 24 days until Winter Park Resort is open!
