  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kelly Shannon Pocono Mountains
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kelly Shannon Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau [email protected] PoconoMountains.com / @PoconoTourismPR 570.730.6444 Poconos Gear Up for the 2017-2018 Ski and Snowboard Season Exciting events, improved snow making, better trails, and featured specials POCONO MOUNTAINS, PA., November 21, 2017 – The first sightings of snow for the 2017-2018 winter season have been spotted over the past few weeks across multiple locations in the Pocono Mountains. Ski areas rejoiced, responding to Mother Nature by making even more snow, creating prime conditions for skiing, snowboard, and snow tubing. For the most up-to-date information on opening dates and snow conditions, visit the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau’s Snow Conditions page. The Pennsylvania Ski Area Association has reported what’s new for the 2017-2018 ski season. Big Boulder Ski Area was the first to open this season in the Poconos and is currently open on weekends, depending on weather. Its sister mountain, Jack Frost Ski Resort, has snow fans blowing as the temperatures dip into the 30s. New for this year for both mountains (known together as JFBB), is a Peak Discovery Program, where skiers and riders can “Learn, Practice, & Explore” when they want, where they want, at any “Peak Resort” in the Northeast. The program is a 3-day lesson with equipment rentals and lift tickets for just $99. Another bonus for the 2017-2018 winter season: JFBB snow conditions are guaranteed! If riders are not completely satisfied with the trail conditions, they can simply return their ticket to Guest Services within one hour of purchase and they will receive a “Snow Check,” good for the same lift ticket type valid that season.
