NEW THIS SEASON
• New for the 2009-2010 season, Snowshoe is offering the state-of-the-art Head BYS rental system. Head’s top-of-the-line rental equipment speeds up the fitting process to get you on the snow quicker, and once you’re there, the shaped skies will accelerate your on-snow progression. Plus, all children’s (12 and under) rental packages now include a helmet.
• Snowshoe added a third surface lift—a standard rope tow—to the Silver Creek area to help beginners move from the designated teaching area to a beginner-friendly slope without having to make it all the way down to the chair lift.
• Snowshoe’s high performance rental shop, The Mountain Adventure Center, will be home to the first Oakley Goggle Bar on the East Coast. The Goggle Bar will allow customers to make customized goggles, with lens, strap and frame choices from Oakley’s large selection.
BUDGET BONUS
• With any Snowshoe lodging purchase this winter, guests will receive a coupon book with $1000 of shopping, dining, and adventure discounts.
• This season all Snowshoe-owned restaurants will be offering a $9.99 dining option at every meal. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast at the food court, enjoying lunch slopeside, or soaking up the mountaintop atmosphere with dinner in the Village, you’ll be able to enjoy a complete meal for just $9.99.
