This celebration of sun and snow includes the Slush Cup, Splash for Cash and Cardboard Box Race. This traditional rite of the season takes spring fever to a whole new level!
April 4 - Okemo Slush Cup
The object is to ski or snowboard down a trail and skim across an 80-foot-long slush pond without falling into it! It’s a chilly spring dip for those who don’t make it. Open to the first 125 participants. Entry fee is $20. Participants win fabulous prizes. Registration starts at 8 a.m. and the pond skimming starts at 11 a.m.
April 4 - Splash for Cash
Go big and get wet! Three huge kickers will be built at the edge of the slush-cup pond. Contestants will get one shot to go big and get wet. Best freestyle tricks and biggest splashes will win top honors. Two age category winners will split the registration fees and go home with some soggy dollars in their pockets! Register for both the Splash for Cash and the Slush Cup for only $30. Splash for Cash starts at 1 p.m.
April 5 - Cardboard Box Race
Contestants must build a snow-sliding racing sled out of only corrugated cardboard and tape (plus decorative features) for a wild ride down the slope at the Jackson Gore “Cardboard Box Raceway.” Teams of three (must be 18 or older) must ride in the sled. Sleds will be judged in two categories: artistry and construction. Bonus points for team costumes. There will be awards for the fastest sled and best self destruction of a sled while on course. Join Harpoon Brewery in the Sitting Bull after the race for a cold beer and prizes. Discounts on Harpoon drafts will be available all day long!
