SNOWBOWL SIXTH BEST SEASON COMES TO AN END
Flagstaff, AZ – April 5, 2008
All good things must come to an end and so has
the winter of 2007-08 at the Arizona Snowbowl. With the warm temperatures
and only one snow storm in March, typically the snowiest month,
Snowbowl’s last day of the season will be Sunday, April 6.
“We announce we would open next weekend, April 10-13, if
the attendance was strong for this weekend. During the four day
weekend, the estimated skier count will be less than 2,000 visitors,” states
J.R. Murray, Snowbowl’s GM. “We want to thank all the
skiers and snowboarders for a wonderful season and all the support
shown.”
He continues, “Obviously with the good season and so many
days of great skiing, most have had their fill of skiing and spring
fever has taken over. People want to be on the trails, not on the
slopes.”
What started out as a huge challenge in finding employees, Snowbowl
hired over 650 employees, a record. But the employees were strong
and they could not have done it with out them.
In the 2007-08 season, Snowbowl was open 112 days. Their opening
day was on December 13, 2007. This season they received 240 inches
of snow, 20 feet, with consistently great snow since the opening
day.
For the final day, Snowbowl will have the Agassiz, Sunset & Hart
Prairie lifts in operation from 10 am to 4 p. Lift tickets will
be $25 for Adults and $15 for Juniors.
