Savings and Events at Holiday Valley
In Ellicottville, the Holiday Valley snowmaking crew is inviting snowmakers from the region to the annual Guns ‘n Hoses Race and Party on Saturday, March 21. Snowmakers must ski through race gates while carrying the snowmaking hoses, and then hook them up to snow guns at the base of the course. Come out and cheer on these hardworking men and women as they celebrate the season and raise funds for Mercy Flight Emergency Helicopter Services.
