SPRING GRÜV: POND SKIMMING CONTEST

Canyons Events

All listings are subject to availability and subject to change.
3/23/2013 - 3/23/2013

Canyons presents the 6th annual Spring Grüv . For 10 days we'll be having huge, free concerts in the Resort Village, as well as the famous Pond Skimming Contest! Our annual Pond Skimming Contest will be the first event of Spring Grüv. It's one of those traditions that has been wild from the start. The Pond Skimming Contest is Canyons' most popular party and is the true indicator that spring has arrived. Contestants must dress in costume (the funkier the better) as they attempt to cross a 100-foot pond on skis or a snowboard. The pond and the excitement happen at mid-mountain just outside Red Pine Lodge. Must be 10 years of age or older to enter.  Spectators will need a lift or gondola ticket to watch. Then, hit up the Resort Village for a live concert (band TBD)! NOTE: No outside alcohol is allowed in for our spring concerts. We will have food and beverage options available in the Resort Village, so don't worry! And, please carpool.

Pre-Registration is now closed. We'll see everyone on Saturday!
