NSAA Safety Month, hosted by the National Ski Areas Association (NSAA), is dedicated to promoting safety and responsibility on the slopes. As part of this initiative, we’re highlighting the importance of the "Know the Code," a set of guidelines for safe skiing and riding. This year, we’re celebrating with a variety of fun and informative events, including Toboggan Rides and a Lift Evac Demo with Ski Patrol, a Lift Safety Session with our Lift Operators, and a Park Smart Pop-Up with our Parks Crew. These activities offer guests the chance to meet our expert teams and learn about mountain safety in an engaging way. Don’t forget to join our Blizzard Bingo challenge for a chance to win prizes! Our continued commitment to safety has earned us multiple NSAA safety awards, and we’re proud to offer these exciting opportunities to ensure everyone stays safe while having fun on the mountain.
