Expect live music, a Labor Day 5k and Fun Run, adorable alpaca encounters, delicious food, and lawn games galore. But the real star of the show is the epic tent sale! Score huge discounts on last season's ski and snowboard gear, plus get a first look at the hottest new equipment for the 2024-25 winter season. And the savings don't stop there - snag deals on resort wear, golf apparel, and more! It's the perfect way to say goodbye to summer and gear up for an epic winter at Crystal Mountain.
