 Have Fun!
What you make is up to you, from animals to pirate ships to race cars. Be creative, wear costumes, enter as a team – work outing, church retreat, college fraternity - the more creative minds the better! Or enter as a duo, Father & Son, Best Buds, Grand Pop & Grand kid and of course Better Halves!
Competition categories will be decided upon number of entrants. Awards are given for fastest times in each category, most creative design and more. Racers are allowed to have 2 pushers to give them a helpful shove at the start of the race, but then the racers are on their own. These snow boxes have to slide on their own after that initial push, racers are not allowed to use their arms or legs to push themselves down the hill. Making it to the finish line is not as easy as it might seem and that’s when the entertainment starts!
Our Mountain Café & Bar will be serving up all your winter favorites, not to mention hot chocolate and all the fixes – yum! Mt Crescent provides a comfortable lodge to enjoy the derby with the entire family. It’s a spectator’s event; with imaginatively designed sleds (some fast, some slow) and a few spectacular crashes, the action provides fun viewing for all ages. Still, for anyone who doesn’t want to watch the races, the ski hill remains open for skiers and snowboarders.
Whether you want to test your cardboard design skills or simply enjoy the races as a spectator this event will keep you laughing!
