HoliMont to host ‘Frosty CX’ fat bike races next weekend By Deb Everts
Winter fun at HoliMont Ski Resort is going to be even more exciting when the inaugural “Frosty CX” fat bike race comes to the resort Feb. 23. The new, non-skiing event features hardy souls who set out to conquer the snow on their fat bikes, which are basically mountain bikes with huge tires that are made for snow, according to Marketing Director Greg Culver.

Slip down a slope at HV’s annual Penguin Paddle By Deb Everts
Each year, people of all ages don garbage bags and slip down the slope of Yodler like penguins at the annual Penguin Paddle. The event benefits Holiday Valley’s Lounsbury Adaptive Ski Program that serves 200 and 250 disabled clients each season offering ski lessons and equipment to people with all disabilities, both physical and cognitive.
Make like a penguin and slide down a slippery slope at this year’s annual Penguin Paddle that takes place Saturday, Feb. 23. The slide features hundreds of funloving people who put on a helmet and don a black garbage bag, then slide down Yodeler Slope on their bellies like a penguin to raise money for Holiday Valley’s Lounsbury Adaptive Ski Program (LASP).
