Spring Fiesta 2008!!

Plenty of Sun, Snow and Events Keep The Party Going Into April

More than 350 inches of snowfall to date this winter season has set up Sierra-at-Tahoe Resort for incredible spring time skiing and snowboarding. An event calendar that includes Dog Days of Spring, Queen of the Park, the 5th Annual Telegrass and Salsa Showdown at Baja Grill will keep guests entertained each weekend, while screamín deals like the Spring 3-Pak and lodging packages from $69/person keep the whole party light on the wallet. Live music, drink specials and a Salsa Showdown at the Baja Grill add the Fiesta to Spring Fiesta!

Spring 3-Paks are now on sale! Adults can ski/ride for $45 per day while Young Adults (13 to 22) can take advantage of lift tickets for only $37 per day. A roundtrip to Sierra Resort from Sacramento only takes about one tank of gas - making the entire experience one of the best value-oriented day trips from California's capital city.

Spring Fiesta events include:

• Dog Days of Spring on March 30. Hosted by the Sierra Resort Ski Patrol, this 1st annual event includes a rescue dog demonstration, an avalanche beacon hunt and a visit by CalStar's rescue helicopter as well as the Ski Patrol Olympics!
  
• The 5th Annual Telegrass on April 5 & 6. Nothing says "springtime in the mountains" like enjoying a beer and live bluegrass music in the sunshine while trying to dance in ski boots. The Telegrass festival offers two days of telemark clinics, bluegrass music, free telemark equipment demos and a carefree vibe that comes naturally when you free your heels. New Belgium Brewing will be on hand with their seasonal brews.
  
• Queen of the Park on April 12. Girls rule at this slopestyle event complete with female djs spinning tunes. Competitors can nominate a "token male" to compete in a separate rail and box competition.
  
• Think you have a good salsa recipe?  Get involved in the Salsa Showdown or the Taco eating contest for a chance to win a season pass!  Contests will take place at the Baja Grill and there will be judges deciding the fate of the next salsa master.

Guests can take advantage of great deals on lodging packages in nearby South Lake Tahoe. Sierra Resort's convenient online central reservations page makes it easy to book a spring weekend in the mountains. Guests can also call 877-SKI-2-STAY to book.
