3rd Annual Walk of the Santa’s Weekend in the Mount Snow Valley of Vermont

Where: Mount Snow Valley, Home of Mount Snow, VT
When: December 12th – December 14th

This December, the Mount Snow Valley will be celebrating Santa with a weekend full of fun activities for all ages. The main event will be a short “Pledge Walk” around the base of Mount Snow on Saturday at noon. In order to participate in the Pledge Walk and the Scavenger Hunt, we are asking participants to raise pledges from their friends. Those with pledges of $10 or more will receive a Santa ID card good for discounts throughout the valley and a passport for the Scavenger Hunt. Those with pledges of $50 or more will receive a free Santa suit which will be worn during the Pledge walk (while supplies last) and any one in a Santa suit is eligible for $25 off skiing/riding at Mount Snow.

The weekend will start with a kick off party at the Matterhorn Inn in West Dover on Friday, December 12th.

The Pledge Walk is on Saturday, Dec. 13 at the Grand Summit Hotel where there will be an Arts & Crafts Fair as well. There will also be a Gingerbread House Exhibit downtown Wilmington in Memorial hall.

Saturday night will be a Charity Dinner & Dancing with a “Vermont Experience” Auction.
A plated dinner and live music from Peter Miles and The High Road will compliment this interesting and unusual auction.
On Sunday there will be a Snowman making contest at the Matterhorn as well as the presentation of prizes for the Scavenger hunt and the Snowman contest.

A portion of the proceeds of this event will go to Deerfield Valley Community Cares, a local organization that supports working families and seniors with fuel assistance during the colder months. Last year they helped 57 families with almost $40,000.

This event is brought you by Celebrate the Valley Inc. and sponsored in part by the Dover Economic Development Committee.
