Ski Sundown Events / Brewer's Fest

**Greg** · Jul 31, 2007, 8:12 AM

We talked a bit about this last year: http://www.skisundown.com/events/ind...=detail&id=181

I might try to go this year if others are interested. Check out some of the other events in the line-up: http://www.skisundown.com/events/

Boardercross/Skiercross?

Sounds pretty interesting. I wonder where they'll set up the course. I suggested a bump competition in the Sundown challenge. Now that would be cool.

I might be interested in going...

If it's a nice afternoon, I might do a little hike around the mountain and then stop in for a beer or two. $30 is a bit steep unless you plan to get totally clobbered though...

It is, that might be what kept me from going last time IIRC...

I think so. I would be more willing to just pony up $4 or $5 per pint...

Wife and I went last year, we had a good time and didn't get bombed. I would say that I did get my $30 dollars worth though. Instead of 6 $5 pints, you can get a much broader sample. Also, proceeds go to their Adaptive Skier program, which is a great cause.

The wife and I are going this year, if any of youse guys are planning on it, let me know, it would be fun to meet-up.

Considering it. I'd like to bring the little one in his Baby Bjorn but I don't know if they are going to bust my stones since they specify adults only...

I think I saw a few curtain crawlers there last year. Just ignore the snarky comments about *cough*parenting skills*cough* We're gettin' a mad steezy sitter, yo.
