any suggestions or improvements about the event drop it on this forum. Sounds like there is a good chance little mountain might put on another event this fall, improved through some of the rider feedback....

I heard from a crew that splitting the boarders/skiers into 1 hr Jams would cut down on the lines and allow the Judges to focus better.

Allowing everybody to session till they were threw was dope!!!

the set up was pretty sick but i would have liked to see more stuff go down on rails rather than boxes... maybe if we could get a longer down rail set up street style...

overall the jam was fuckin sick

I vote for having a longer down rail, set up street style next time, as style should be a factor, and that was not the case in mentor. Kids were hucking meat onto the box. This will weed out 95% of the kiddies who think theyre steezballs. Even a flat bar would work.

yeah 3 differnt things is cool but if you used more snow for two bigger rails i think you would have seen the real skiers show threw

our webserver went down last night, it's back up.

We're gonna have four days of jams at our FF at Peek'n Peak
19th Annual Fall Fest

We're thinking a semi truck full of ice and a wood chipper?

10 tons of ice has been ordered.  we can get more if needed.  modified wood chipper.

Event workers needed:
If you are interested in working as a Terrain Park Ranger this coming season then I'm requesting that you work as a helper for our Fall Fest Rails and Boxes Jam. I will pay $6.75 an hour for you to shovel snow, assist with crowd control, answer questions, and whatever errands need to be run. This will allow me to hand pick a dozen qualified Rangers for next season. If it doesn't work out then you still get paid to work the event. I want everyone to work a minimum of a full 8 hours. More may be requested but I also want to allow everyone a chance to compete. If hired for winter season the wage would be adjusted accordingly. Please download the application below or pick one up at our HR office at Peek'n Peak.
Or apply in person at the Human Resource Office in the Annex Building at Peek’n Peak Resort 1405 Olde Road Findley Lake NY, mail resumes to PO Box 360 Findley Lake NY 14736 or email resumes to humanresources@pknpk.com . EEO

19th Annual Fall Fest
October 14 & 15, 21 & 22
10am-5pm daily
Four family fun-filled days!
For extra points, design a terrain feature on the third (blank) page of this application.

all days should be the same, I just want to allow everyone a chance to see what we have to offer and have a shot at a seasons pass.  Round Top, PA is having a Jam on that second weekend.
