Hosting the event are Force Support Squadrons from Buckley, Schriever, Peterson and F.E. Warren Air Force Bases as well as units from Fort Carson and the U.S. Air Force Academy. Friday and Saturday will host racing, including the Commander's Cup Traveling Trophy race for skiers and snowboarders on Friday and individual races on Saturday. Families, kids and adults can enter the cardboard derby to race home-built cardboard sleds on Saturday, or participate in a costumed snowshoe race later that day. For the noncompetitive sorts, the event also features discounted lift tickets for the individual or the whole family. Finally, for those not interested in skiing or snowboarding, other events including snow biking, tubing, snow-shoeing, cross-country skiing, ice skating, sleigh rides, yoga, spa treatments and fudge making abound to occupy the day.
