Rome snowboards and GRO SNOW teamed up with Stevens Pass for the First Annual LADIES DAY AT STEVENS!!!
We had 40 pre registered ladies from 3years old to 52 and another 40 sign up on the mountain.We were sooo stoked on this much excitement for a first time event!
We had girls visiting from other mountains within Washington and even a couple friends from India who are here working and saw the web site and decided to join. We started the night before with a sleep over with Megan Middleton our Stevens Pass/Rome pro and then started up to the mountain for muffins and Rockstar Latte’s to start our amazing day. The weather was a bit on the wet side but it sure didn’t dampen the spirits of this troop of ladies. Lunch rally found us chowing down on PB& J sandwiches and LOTS of Rockstar’s new PINK!!!!
Lots of encouragement and laughs as new friends were made and old friends had more fun than they had before.Everyone said they improved their skills for having other ladies to ride with. Everyone took off for a few more runs and then gathered for raffles and goodie bags. A New Rome snowboard and a $250.00 Zumiez gift card were the hot items that were awarded as well as beanies, bags and lots of FUN~
I think for a FIRST this was one overwhelmingly POSITIVE time for All.
