Hey, Winter Park Friends,
It’s going to be in the 50s again this weekend! So we won’t have skating/sledding organized activities this weekend in the WS City Park. Feel free to hike the Nature Trail!

The weekend of Feb 7-8 is a busy and warm one. Due to warm temps, we won't open up for regular activities! Keep watching our posts - we will keep trying through the end of February. (Pray for some snow... we'd love one more great weekend of sledding.).

Congratulations to Andrew Arnott, son of Gail and Susan. Andrew was here visiting from Washington DC and took time to come sledding! Winning the farthest slide so far, he sledded past the camping and turned right on the park road! Let's pray for a bit more snow to capture a few more awards!

Hi all! Please share to spread the word.
We won’t have any organized open hours December 20-21 in the WS Winter Park due to no more snow and warm temps.

Everyone have a safe weekend and pray for some good winter temps and snow so we can sled and skate and snow shoe again.
Happy holidays!!!! ❄️❄️🎄🎄❄️❄️🎄🎄
