MANSFIELD – Families looking forward to kicking-off the New Year with some heart-healthy fun in the outdoors, can find it at Snow Trails this winter.
Tubing enthusiasts can hit the Vertical Descent Tubing Park for the return of the resort’s “Will Tube For Food” benefit event on Wednesday, Jan. 4 from 5 to 9 p.m. Now in its 17th season, Will Tube For Food benefits Catalyst Life Services.
Snow tubers save $5 on 2hr Tubing Tickets by making their required Advanced Reservation online at $25 per ticket, regularly priced at $30. Discount shown in cart and no promo code required. Snow Trails will also donate $5 to Catalyst Life Services from each ticket purchased.
As a bonus, this event will be held under the Glow Tubing LED lights. Popular times sell-out, so it is recommended to make a reservation as soon as possible to not miss-out on the fun for a great cause. Visit: SnowTrails.com/WillTubeForFood.
“We are excited to give back to the community and welcome families for a fun night making memories with Glow Tubing at Snow Trails,” said Nate Wolleson, Snow Trails Marketing Manager. “We began this event in 2006 and it continues to provide many non-perishable donations of food and a financial contribution to the great work of Catalyst Life Services New Beginnings program.
“We fully appreciate each Snow Trails guest who joins us and we couldn’t do this without their support,” Wolleson said.
Snow Trails Vertical Descent Tubing Park offers 2hr Tubing Tickets to include the use of a snow tube, conveyor carpet lift ride to avoid walking uphill – typically required with sled-riding – and the use of multiple tubing lanes for a fun snowy descent under the glowing LED lights.
Non-perishable donations will be collected at the Tubing Park Ticket Hut when redeeming reservations. The Hut is adjacent to the tubing lanes and the Tubing Lodge, which offers a snack bar, restrooms, and a panoramic view of tubers sliding-by.
In addition to tubing, families looking to enroll the kiddos in learn to ski & snowboard programs or simply hone their skills can take advantage of Snow Trails Children’s Program.
