Carinthia Parks At Mount Snow Announces New Events For 2018/2019 Season

Mount Snow, is pleased to announce a brand-new lineup of events at Carinthia Parks for the 2018/2019 winter season. In honor of the 10thanniversary of Carinthia becoming an all-terrain-park mountain face, these new events will highlight many of the aspects that have helped Carinthia rise to the rank of #1 Terrain Park in The East, as named by both Transworld Snowboarding and Newschoolers.com. Along with this lineup, comes the opening of the new $22M, 42,000 sq.ft. Carinthia Base Lodge, which for the first time brings après to the Carinthia Base Area, with three restaurants, two bars, and a large outdoor deck that is designed with event-viewing and afterparties in mind.  

“In honor of our 10-year celebration, we thought it was the perfect time to add in some new events and concepts that we've been dreaming of,” said Ben McGinnis, terrain park manager at Mount Snow. “We've gone back to the drawing board on our events and builds this year, and are really excited to see the reactions to these new and innovative offerings.”

Ever the training ground of future X Games athletes and Olympians, Carinthia Parks is continuing its tradition of progression and professional development with the return of its Grommet Jam Series. The Grommet Jams, which are held December 27, 2018, January 21, 2019, and wrap up with the finals on February 18, 2019, feature a morning of coaching followed by an afternoon of competition for both skiers and snowboarders ages 12-and-younger.
