The Burton Star Wars Experience Continues
Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 02/14/2012 - 12:07pm
The Force is strong at Sierra for Younglings and Padawans this winter in Yoda's Riglet Park at Wild Moutain Children's Center. The Burton Star Wars Experience uses the beloved intergalactic saga to help children ages 3-6 make their first snowboard turns using Burton's innovative Riglet Reel Technology.
This singular on-mountain experience filled with visuals from the Star Wars galaxy combines Burton's industry-leading technology with Jedi Master Yoda's teaching methods - movement, navigation and control. Younglings and Padawans will learn using the ways of the Force through interactive drop in nodes showcasing custom-made wood carvings of R2-D2, C-3P0, Chewbacca and more. Availability is limited and may sell out on a daily basis; reservations are strongly recommended. Please call (530) 543-3150.
Meanwhile, each year Sierra-at-Tahoe teams up with the Barton Foundation as a way to give back to the South Lake Tahoe Community. Ski or ride all day for just $35 from Feb. 14-16. All proceeds benefit the Barton Foundation, Lake Tahoe Community College Foundation, Lake Tahoe Educational Foundation, Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care and Sierra-at-Tahoe Education Foundation.
