Snowdown 2025!

Durango will trade its winter blues for board games and clues. Snowdown 2025 has arrived, and this week is jam-packed full of events. You’re watching the Local News Network, brought to you by Dunkin’ Donuts and San Juan Regional Medical Center. I’m Sadie Smith. This year’s Snowdown marks its 46th anniversary with the theme, “It’s your Move: The Board Game Edition.” Snowdown will light up Durango from Friday, January 24th, through Sunday, February 2nd. The search for the Silver Bullet is officially on. Hidden somewhere in La Plata County, the Coors Light Silver Bullet holds the key to $250 and a cornucopia of prizes. Want to join the chase? Tune in daily to Radio 101.3 and KRSJ 100.5 for clues that could lead you to the grand discovery. Friday, January 31st, is a date you won’t want to miss. At 6:00 PM, the Snowdown Light Parade, hosted by Purgatory Resort, will light up Downtown Durango. Significant street and parking closures will be along the parade route, so arrive early and plan accordingly. Volunteers are still needed to ensure a safe and successful parade. If you plan to attend some of Snowdown’s signature events, act fast. Tickets for the Snowdown Follies, Fashion Do’s and Don’ts, and the Outlaw Josie Pete’s Golf Tournament are already sold out. However, you can still catch a live video recording of the Snowdown Follies and a video recording of Fashion Do’s and Don’ts at the Animas Theater. The full event schedule as well as details on rules and volunteer opportunities can be found on snowdown.org. For more information about this and other stories, visit durangolocal.news.
