Killington Parks sends its season out in style

Saturday, March 30, 9:30 a.m.—KILLINGTON—Another great season with Killington Parks is once again coming to an end. Before they put the metal back in the shop, come lap the parks for one last spring event — Hibernation Park Jam, Saturday, March 30. Soft landings, good vibes, goggle tans and lunch are all on the agenda. Go shred, take home some prizes, and send Killington Parks out in style. Location is still to be determined, but check killington.com for details closer to the event.

Shred sessions will be held from 9:30-11 a.m. with Parks Appreciation Day. Start the morning off with the park crew — they’ll be lapping the park and tossing swag to anyone stomping tricks and having a good time. This event is free and open to the public.

The Park Jam will take place from 1-3 p.m. Meet in the Fuel TV Lounge on the third floor of Bear Mountain Lodge for lunch — open to Park Jam competitors only. All registration for the Park Jam will take place from 9-11 a.m. only. It’s $20 for everyone, which includes lunch. There will be no online pre-registration for this event. Competitors will be required to have a season pass or lift ticket in order to compete. Discounted lift tickets for competitors will be available for purchase at registration.

Awards follow the event at 3:30 p.m.

Events are open to grom and adult snowboarders and skiers. Get the full details at  killington.com.
