The Copper Mountain Ski Patrol is bringing a Snow Day to Austin! Much needed after wildfires, no? Maybe some real snow?
A Mobile Snow Day Van will be cruising around Austin all weekend, so look for it:
- Saturday, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m.: UT Longhorns Tailgate at the Bob Bullock Parking Lot
The snow machine will start cranking out piles of snow. Ski Patrol will be applying orange Zinka sunscreen to noses and handing out hot-cocoa flavored snow cones, aka Fudgsicles! Take a seat on the mounted chairlift and take a picture. Prizes like Trucker Hats, hot cocoa flavored air fresheners, and Copper Mountain Snow will be available for all participants.
- Sunday, Sept. 11 at 8 a.m.: ‘Got Guts 5K’ run, in Walter E. Long Park (6614 Blue Bluff Rd.)
Ski Patrol will be handing out tattoos and pressing them off with snow … Keep an eye out for Ski Patrol at different checkpoints along the running route and running the race. After the race, think Snow Baths or free muscle cool downs, plus gluten-free cookies!!
