Snowshoe Mountain Ski
Resort Offering Deals for GNCC Weekend on
January 30
Morgantown, W.Va. (January 12, 2009) -- GNCC
Racing, in conjunction with Snowshoe Mountain
Ski Resort, has announced a special GNCC Weekend
to take place at the resort from January 30
through February 1st. Through the relationship
GNCC Racing has built with Snowshoe Resort, all
racers, friends and family with an AMA or ATVA
membership card will receive 10 percent off of
room rates, lift and lodging packages by simply
showing their card at check-in on Friday.
Snowshoe will also offer special rates on
activities at the Big Top Welcome Reception
later that night. The discounts are available
for all AMA and ATVA members.
"I think it's a great opportunity to
introduce the people who have been here in the
summer to our winter operations and it's a great
venue to do that," said Brad Larsen, director of
marketing for Snowshoe Mountain Ski Resort. " At
the same time GNCC is going to be making some of
their announcements and there's no better place
to hear what's new for GNCC this year then at
Snowshoe where one of the marquee events is
going to happen in June."
On Saturday night, Snowshoe will offer
snowmobile tours of the mountain. Two tours will
run, and the first nine GNCC members to show up
for each will get to ride for free.
The largest ski resort in West Virginia,
Snowshoe Mountain Resort sits at 4848 feet with
60 slopes and trails, with 12 of those open for
night skiing. With 180 inches of average annual
snow fall and 100 percent snowmaking
capabilities, Snowshoe offers winter activities
for any age with snowmobiling, snow tubing,
snowshoeing, cross country skiing and terrain
parks. And after a long day on the slopes, folks
can warm up with a hearty meal at one of the
many restaurants and coffee shops in the
village.
"Racer Productions is excited to have this
opportunity for our racing families to get
together for a non-racing function," said Tim
Cotter, Snowshoe GNCC Event Director for Racer
Productions. "We appreciate Snowshoe Mountain
Resorts extending this invitation to AMA
Members."
The 2009 Can-Am Grand National Cross Country
Series begins with the Parts Unlimited River
Ranch GNCC in River Ranch, Florida, which runs
