Stratton announces 'Fire and Ice' Festival 2010 |
The month is highlighted by Stratton's 'Fire and Ice' festival, action packed with events and activities for all ages, including the official Lindsey Jacobellis hometown viewing party as she goes for gold.
The schedule of events is as follows.
Feb. 13 Fire on the Mountain
An epic opening party with fireworks, a torch light parade, bon fire, snow sculpture contest and Grateful Dead cover bands, with tie dye shirts of course.
Feb. 14 Sweetheart Sunday
The Villager chair turns into the 'Sweetheart Chair' all decked out with red ribbons and hearts. The American Express lift becomes the 'Speed Dating' lift as singles will have approximately four minutes to impress a future love interest before they can decide to ski, or not to ski down together. Food and drink specials will entice your favorite Valentine, as will a special V-Day dinner at Bentley's to cap off the most romantic day of the year.
Feb. 15 Mystery Monday
We've always been a place to come and play, so our resort-wide game of CLUE should entice those looking for a new challenge. And if you know Stratton trivia, win big with Q and A sessions and our 'cash cabin' gondola.
