Snowboarding

Today Is World Snowboard Day

Today is World Snowboard Day, which is being celebrated in 32 different countries via more than 130 events. I’d never heard of such a thing until scanning the newswires this week, but it seems like a neat idea. Maybe next year we can put together a feature ahead of time.

World Snowboard Day was first put together four years ago by the World Snowboard Festival and the European Boardsports Industry Manufacturers Association as an event designed to kick off the snowboarding season, and to allow the general public to “discover the fun of snowboarding through many free activities all of the world,” according to one of their press releases.

There’s a few events taking place in Canada, including in Whistler and Stoneham. Neat.
