Sno Kona Pond Skim Competition Mt

 Sno-Kona Pond Skim Competition, 4-28-2012
It is time to dust off your water wings and pond scum snorkel set as we approach the 2012 Sno-Kona Pond Skim hosted by Mt. Hood Meadows. This annual tradition sends land based humans cascading down a snowy runway in hopes that they will generate enough speed and have enough control to cross the pond without falling in the drink. Of course it is not just making it across that earns you points.
Criteria for this sacred event is based on a three tier scale: Making it across; Costume; and Style/Crowd response. So if you're planning on entering, don't forget to dress in your 'Sunday best' and by that I mean the most outlandish thing you can think of (as you will be judged on appearance). However shallow that might sound it helps to ease the tension when you catch an edge and belly flop mid pond dressed as a transsexual Batman or a giant burrito or Betty Boop or, well you get the idea. It is like that one guy said in the movie 'Gladiator' '' win the crowd, and you'll win your freedom.' In this case it is win a grand prize trip for two to Hawaii!
Registration for the event concludes on the 26th or after 100 participants have signed up. To sign up and learn more please visit Ski Hood. GOOD LUCK!
