23rd Annual Pond Skimming Competition: Saturday, April 6
Whether your go-to spring skiing costume is an 80’s onesie, a sparkled-out tutu or something else you’ve been prepping all year, it’s time to bust it out and come up to Red Pine Lodge for Spring Gruv’s grand finale, the annual Pond Skimming Competition. Pond Skim is one of the best days of the year to be on the mountain. Contestants must dress in costume (the funkier the better) as they attempt to cross a 100-foot pond on skis or a snowboard. Awards will be given out by a panel of judges for best costume, best splash and crash and overall best male and female contestant. The pond is located at the top of the Red Pine Gondola just outside of Red Pine Lodge. Competitor registration will open on March 1. More information here.
