An Unforgettable Summer Festival
|
|
Dear friends,
It's been an amazing summer at Antelope Butte, filled with festivals, hiking, biking, camping, picnics and countless good times.
Last month's Summer Festival brought together new and old friends of all ages who rocked out and blissed out to an amazing musical lineup of local and national talent. The weather was perfect for morning yoga, running and bike races, children's activities, cold drinks, good food and Antelope Butte's incomparable mountain setting--it just doesn't get any better.
Here are some fun facts about the 2019 Summer Festival:
- Total Attendance (including races, volunteers, and artists): 700
- Money Raised: $24,000. This is our most successful Summer Festival to date and would not have happened without the support of our sponsors.
- Special Recognition: Grateful thanks to Sheridan Bicycle Company for donating their time, energy, and resources. They've been a part of every event at Antelope Butte since its inception and are a great community partner!
- Thanks to Home Depot for your support in our birdhouse building kids' activity, which was a big hit!
- The Pancake Breakfast provided by the Antelope Butte Ski Patrol helped raise over $900 to go specifically towards Ski Patrol equipment.
It's gratifying to see the whole community coming together for an event like this.
To all of our wonderful volunteers, musicians, attendees and sponsors, we deeply
appreciate your help and support.
Enjoy these summer days, and we'll be back in touch soon with information about the 2019-2020 Winter Season!
Thank you,
John Kirlin, Executive Director
Antelope Butte Mountain Recreation Area

Progress Continues on the Lodge!
|
Hey, look - the Lodge is getting a new roof! We're working hard to meet our next BIG goal of completing our 11,400 square foot lodge, which is currently undergoing a major renovation.
The Lodge will be the center of ALL year-round mountain activities--hosting, teaching, learning, sharing, laughing, playing and celebrating. It is where all will gather to take a break, grab a bite, make a new friend and reminisce about the great day.
The Lodge is the place where memories will be made!
Our next phase of construction includes projects like HVAC, plumbing, electrical work, exterior siding, soffits and gutters.
We can't do it without you. Click the link below to find out how
you
can be involved. (Did you know you can even have a ski run named in your honor?)
