Hate Mondays?  Well, you shouldn't this time because Monday, February 20th is President's Day, which means you have the day off.  Break this down even further, and you'll find one happening party before your eyes the night before.  So, on Sunday, February 19th, come celebrate the fact that you have a day off in addition to the birth of Anheiser Busch's first liquor, Jekyll and Hyde. 

So, get your ski and snowboard boots ready because you'll be shredding it up on the mountain until midnight and then change into your pretty dancing shoes for the party to rip it up on the dance floor in the Hex until 3:00 a.m.  With drink specials galore from Jekyll and Hyde, live music and a ton of giveaways from Jack FM, who would want to miss out?

You must be 21 or older to get into the party!


The Cabriolet and the Parks will be open until Midnight too!!!!!

Well, as you can see, Tour De Creek was off the hook!!!  The all day event consisted of three different rail jam's followed by a after party/award ceremony.  Teams from all over the East Coast showed up to represent their board shops in the comp.  One team even caught the red eye from Whistler to compete in the event!!!  The winning team was 'Fat Trax' from Massachusetts.  Congratulations Boys!!!  The After Party was held @ The Hex.  As you can see it got a little crazy.  Somehow a friendly game of Pictionary turned into a team dance off!!!!  Don't miss Tour De Creek next year.  Also, don't forget about Jammin for Swag again this Friday and Girls learn to Ride on Saturday!!!!
