SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The annual Snowshoe Cocktail Race series at Camp Richardson begins on January 18, with the second and third races on Feb. 15 and Mar. 21.
The high stepping fun returns as amateur contestants strap on snowshoes and try their luck in the resort’s annual race. This three-part series held on the beach in front of the Beacon Bar and Grill tests participants’ balance, speed, and agility as racers, cocktail trays in hand, navigate through obstacles, and up and down the beach.
The winner is the fastest and driest at the finish. Spill your drinks and you lose. For their efforts, competitors can win prizes that range from snowshoes and dining certificates to equipment and marina rentals. Registration is free for multiple race categories and signups start at 5:00 p.m. at the Beacon. Races kick off at 7:00 p.m.
Parts two and three in the series are scheduled for Feb. 15 and March 21. The resort is pairing the races with a lodging special that includes one night in the Beach Side Inn or Historic Hotel for just $95 and includes a $25 certificate to spend on breakfast at the General Store.
