Main Street Station Summer Concert Series Announced!

Ahhhh...summertime in Breckenridge, turquiose blue skies, cool temperatures , hiking, biking and now LIVE MUSIC in the PLAZA!

Main Street Station has announced the first ever Summer Concert Series. The series kicks off on June 6th from 3 - 7 in the Main Street Station Plaza featuring the M.T.H.D.S. and headliners Pep Love and Opio , front men from the wildly successful Heiroglyphics.

M.T.H.D.S. sound is funk-driven rock, melodic hip-hop and blue reggae united together. Formed in April of 2007, ‘The Methods,’ as they’re more widely known to their fans, were drawn together by a love of music and snowboarding. Using a name derived from the snowboarding trick, the Colorado based group began playing to world class athletes, tourists, ski bums, gnarly shredders, hipsters, slizzes and confused drunk weirdos that accidently wandered into various shows.

Headliners Opio and Pep Love are members of the Oakland -based undergound hip hop collective - Heiroglyphics. Both remain two of the most popular Mcees in the Hieroglyphics camp, coming off with a smooth flow in conjunction with well thought-out and clever verbals. They continue to astound fans worldwide.

Tickets $15.00 by calling Main Street Station at 970-453-4000 or purchase day of show.

Tubbs Romp to Stomp Out Breast Cancer Comes to Summit County Colorado

The seventh annual Tubbs Romp to Stomp out Breast Cancer, one of the largest snowshoe events in the nation, is set for March 7 at the Frisco Nordic Center, and organizers are encouraging participants to register early — or risk being shut out. Event organizers announced Thursday that a participation cap of 2,000 will be placed on the event, and registration is up this year nearly 80 percent over last year. Day-of-event registration likely will not be available.

The event, which last year attracted some 2,200 snowshoers and raised more than $131,000 for the Denver affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is expected to sell out, according to site coordinator Joan Davids.“It is major,” she said. “We are looking to raise over $125,000, but will need everyone’s help.”Frisco — one of five communities across the country to host such an event — is an ideal setting, according to director Wendy Miller, because it is a short drive from Denver and offers scenic trails and plenty of room for gathering — as well as great support from the town and the Frisco Nordic Center.“The Frisco event grew by 400 participants from the year before to reach 2200” Miller said. “We think might be the largest snowshoe event in the world.” Tubbs Snowshoes, the prime sponsor, will have a limited supply of snowshoes available for free use for participants. The event will start at 7:30 a.m. with a pancake breakfast for participants sponsored by Wells Fargo. For more information on the event or to sign up in advance visit the Romp To Stomp website.

Sacred Tree and ResortQuest support the Romp Coinciding with the Romp, Sacred Tree, a spa and center for integrated health care at BlueSky Breckenridge, together with ResortQuest, is offering a free talk and interactive presentation about how healthy hormones interact with breast cancer.The presentations are scheduled from 3-4:30 p.m. on March 7 and 9-10:30 a.m. on March 8.Donations of $5 or more will be accepted for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and 10 percent of proceeds for these spa treatments also will be donated.

ResortQuest Breckenridge and ResortQuest Keystone will be offering 30% off lodging to participants.

It's time again for Snow Sculptures!

In Breckenridge each year, blank canvases of snow become works of art. From a whimsical bouquet of enormous flowers, to thought provoking abstract shapes, sculptors form these masterpieces before thousands of spectators over the course of five days in the heart of town.
In its 17th year, artists from all over the world will come together to present intricate, awe-inspiring snow sculptures. These artists will carve twenty-ton, 12-foot-tall blocks of snow into pieces of art using only their creativity, inspiration, own two hands and permitted hand tools.

I have been lucky enough to preview the designs for some of these sculptures - wait until you see the Breck Team's - it's called "Wheee!" and it's a roller coaster - don't know how they are going to pull it off - but knowing those guys - they will!

There are great lodging packages out there if you are coming into town - ResortQuest has one of the best deals in Breckenridge - with 50% off your lodging PLUS two free snow proof cameras to get pictures of these masterpieces! Visit Breckenridge Lodging for the details.

Wahoo! 79 inches in December!

With the weekend snowfalls, Breck’s hit some snowfall records! Remember, my data only goes back to the 2000-2001 season, this month’s snowfall to date (79 inches) makes this December the snowiest December in the past 8 years and the snowiest month overall in the past 8 years as well (previous record was 78 inches, which was December last year). Monthly snowfall is 66% above average, and YTD snowfall is 4% above average. Wahoo!
