February 2nd is Woodchuck Day, and Woodchucks are Celebrating All Week!

Details: In Vermont a woodchuck is a hearty Vermonter, a Vermont made hard cider, and an animal sometimes referred to as the groundhog. The folks at WDEV Radio Vermont and Woodchuck Draft Cider have been celebrating February 2nd as Woodchuck Day for some years now and Vermont Ski Areas Association is now onboard celebrating this Vermont take on an American holiday – at four ski resorts next week.

Ski Vermont is hoping for six more weeks of winter – as legend goes, it’s signaled when the woodchuck sees his shadow.

MOUNT SNOW — Freestyle skiing and snowboarding’s elite athletes converged at Carinthia in January 2009 and over 20,000 fans on the snow and millions on live NBC coverage, witnessed the event as Mount Snow hosted the second stop of the inaugural Winter Dew Tour. In 2010, the Dew Tour returns to Mount Snow, but this time for the Toyota Championships.

The finals of the Dew Tour, set for Feb. 5-7, is the crowning jewel of the three-stop tour and athletes will be throwing down for a piece of the $1.5 million cash purse and the Dew Cup. Athletes such as Simon Dumont, Danny Davis, Torstein Horgmo, Bobby Brown, JF Houle, Scotty Lago and many more will be competing in slopestyle and super pipe competitions over three days.

While the action takes a break, fans can check out the Festival Village right in the Carinthia Base Area. The Village features sponsor booths, interactive games, athlete autograph signings and tons of free stuff.
