*Attention all area skiers and riders: the following event will not want to be missed!*

SkierIf you are like me, ski season and the first snow couldn’t come soon enough.  As I sit here envying those living out West who are already gearing up for the start of their season, I find myself looking for any ski related activity I can find to preoccupy myself.  For this reason, I was quite excited to hear that Buckman’s Ski & Snowboard Shop is hosting a major event right here in our area.  Some of the world’s most famous skiers/riders will be in town for the event that also coincides with Buckman’s annual Tent Sale.  At the Tent Sale, last year’s left over inventory is sold at deeply discounted prices.  For anyone looking to buy new equipment or winter outerwear this year, you won’t find better deals anywhere else (believe me, I’ve looked).
