Winter Park Colorado First Snow Contest | Winter Park Lodging Company

first measurable snow in Winter Park CO First Snow in Winter Park, CO 2010/2011

The time has come again for the second annual First Snow in Winter Park, CO Contest. Lady Summer is on her way out of the building and our three weeks of fall will come and go and then we are left with six months of glorious glorious snowy winter.

Here is a comment from WP local Mr. Scott Hefel on Aug 24th, 2010:

Seasons are a changing, I could see my breath on my morning walk with (my dog) Sam. I actually started to get excited for snow.

So the contest is, guess the date that Winter Park Resort will receive the first measurable amount (more than a half inch) of snow and you will win dinner, drinks and desert for two at either Deno’s Mountain Bistro or The Cheeky Monk Belgium Beer Cafe in the Winter Park Village. Guesses can be put below in the comment section and need to be guessed at-least SEVEN DAYS before the date of the snow. One guess per person please.

Last years first snow at Winter Park Resort was on September 21st, yes less than one month away. There were two snow contest winners last year and each received a prize.

Last years first Winter Park snow contest had 74 guesses and we are hoping to beat that this year.

All-right here goes, get your snow dance on and lets start getting ready for some fluffy white stuff here in Winter Park, CO. I will be the first to guess below so make sure to not guess my date for you will be certain to have no chance of winning if you do, I will definitely be wrong.

Hi,
My true love, Anne-Marie, made the above entry for me but forgot the date. It will snow on Sept.19. Anne thinks this date is too late, as we had to scrape ice off the windshield just this morning.
