SNOWMASS, Colo. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) May 28, 2008 --
The Aspen/Snowmass summer season
kicks off in a week with the 5th Snowmass Chili Pepper & Brew Fest,
June 6-8, featuring champion chili and microbrew tastings and music by
Dr. John, The Neville Brothers, Stephen Marley, Lyrics Born, Henry
Butler and more.
Just nine miles from Aspen in the heart of America's stunning Rocky
Mountains, Snowmass' dynamic summer season offers diverse mountain
vacation possibilities. Festival
highlights include a wellness festival, on-going music festivals, a
July 4th holiday celebration, a Hot Air Balloon Festival paired
with a Wine & Jazz festival, and eight athletic competitions ranging
from mountainboarding to disc golf.
In addition to weekend festivals, the weekdays in Snowmass are filled
with activities. The Snowmass
Rodeo, the oldest, continuously running community rodeo in Colorado,
opens June 18, with a new barbecue provided by the renowned Hickory
House Ribs of Aspen. Bull and bronc riding, roping, barrel racing,
and plenty of family activities fill the evening followed by a campfire
and S’mores.
Beginning June 26, music festivals lure thousands to Snowmass each
Thursday and select Saturdays, for free outdoor concerts.
Distinguished acts, such as Mavis Staples, The Freddy Jones Band, and
Robben Ford, perform against the beautiful backdrop of the Rocky
Mountains at sunset. Additional activities like golf, hiking and art
lectures round out Snowmass’ summer offerings.
NEW! Snowmass
offers more mountain vacation amenities than ever before. The new,
environmentally friendly Snowmass Recreation Center features pools,
climbing walls, a skateboard park and more. The Sweet Life
interactive candy store/restaurant opens in the new $1 billion base
village development, offering a specialty S’mores
table and 250 flavors of ice cream made on-site. The 25,000-square-foot Treehouse
Kids’ Adventure Center is open for the
first summer ever with day programs for kids. It's all affordable,
thanks to free activities, mountain vacation lodging specials starting
at $40/person, and Frontier Airlines, which offers five new daily
flights into Aspen/Snowmass. It’s easier than
ever to head to the Rocky Mountains for the best summer mountain
vacation ever.
