Winterskol in Aspen–January 8-11, 2009
This week marks the 57th annual Winterskol celebration in Aspen. Founded by a group of locals looking for a reason to have a party the second week of January, Winterskol consists of a myriad of events and the admission is cheap or free!
Soupskol is scheduled for Friday evening starting at 5:30. People can taste and vote on their favorite soup offered from local restaurants dished out at the corner of Cooper Street and Hunter Avenue.
Fireworks are set off in Snowmass Village on Friday night and again over Aspen Mountain on Saturday night. The annual parade will be held in Aspen on Saturday, and snow sculptures created by WinterSkulpt constestants are on display near the Wheeler Opera House.
Winterskol is just one of the many unique events that has found a home in Aspen and the Roaring Fork Valley. Find your home here, too–Jen is here to help!
