Pebble Creek Ski Area is Celebrating 60 Years of Winter Sports Fun

This the afternoon, a Stacy Smith Fun Race for Kids is scheduled.

Then, persons of all ages are invited for dancing and fun at The Snow Ball in Pebble Creek’s Lodge. The Snow Ball will start 5:00. The Snow Queen will make a special appearance at the Snow Ball and perhaps a skiing appearance on the Aspen as well. Between music sets, Pebble Creek will invite guests to sample birthday cake and wish the area another 60 years of successful winter fun. To add to the festivities, dress clothes, glow necklaces and bracelets are suggested.

Once darkness descends on the mountain, guests will be treated to the visual delight of 50 skiers and boarders traversing The Ridge by torchlight.   In the spirit of the Olympic Torch Run, torches carried by professional skiers and boarders will wind their way in a procession down the mountain. The parade will begin at about 7:30 pm with fireworks at the end. The community is invited to watch this exciting event. In addition, anyone who can see Pebble Creek’s night-lights should be able to see the parade and fireworks from their location.

The Aspen area and restaurant will be open for night skiing and boarding until 9:30 pm. Lift tickets are requited for night skiing. There is no charge for the Snow Ball and watching the Torch Light Parade.

The celebration continues Sunday with a special anniversary Pocatello Ski Association Day with the Rockin' the Ridge Slalom and Après Ski Party as the lifts close.
