PR:Snowboarding, and Snow Play in San Francisco's Union Square

12/16/98

Sugar Bowl Resort in conjunction with Macy's, the historic Westin St. Francis, Sprint and Tommy Hilfiger will be bringing snow to San Francisco's Union Square December 18-20. Sugar Bowl will be trucking in 20 tons of crushed ice and fresh snow and building a mountain 70' long and 20' wide. Sugar Bowl will be offering complimentary lessons and rentals for skiers and snowboarders. Instruction will be provided by Sugar Bowl's Mountain Sports Learning Center. For kids too young to ski we will have a snow play area set up so they can touch the snow. In addition to skiing, all participants will be able to place one free call home for the holidays to anywhere in the continental United States... compliments of Sprint PCS.

Mt. Sugar Bowl will be open on Friday from 12:00 - 5:00 p.m., on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

And for those of you who are looking for a little more vertical than Mount Sugar Bowl in the city, Sugar Bowl does has 1500 feet of vertical, $20 million in improvements, including a brand new Main Lodge at the base of Mt. Judah and another new quad chair. Sugar Bowl is the closest major resort to the Bay Area and is located only 3 short hours from San Francisco.
