East Coast Girls: Read up if you want to help make a sick event possible!

Earlier I made a thread about an all girls ski and ride competition at Stowe Mountain in Vermont. I am meeting with Stowe's events coordinator this week, and was wondering what type of event you girls would really like to see. I was thinking "Queens Cup" ish. Possibly teams, with a coach or leader for each team. There could be training runs for about two hours and then a slopestyle. The winning team gets a bunch of swag. There can be awards for best rail trick and best jump trick for individuals. These are just some ideas I'm throwing out. I need to create a proposal, so I thought I'd ask for some input so I could begin to clarify what this event will actually be.
I have gotten a bunch of support on this already, so thanks to those who have already helped me with this! Any suggestions? You NS girls have a say in this, because I want this to be really sick. And actually have it happen.
Throw some ideas at me! Thanks

Thanks for your help and support guys, again it's really helpful feedback. The reason i'm starting this now is because I don't want to be stuck doing too much at the last minute. Im also trying to schedule around all of the events that are already going on this winter, as well as the events that the company sponsors are going to work around...and the weekend of april 18/19 is so far the best sounding. Hopefully there will be enough snow for that again this year.
As for advertising, once its a legitimate event, I will advertise the crap out of it. Champlain College has a lot of great marketing and advertising as well as PR students, and I know they could be of great help.

i think that the teams should have no age discrimination. like a 10 yro should be able to team up with a 20 yro. but if it ends up being individual there should be age groups if you think there will be enough people to fill them.

i have been trying to com up with some good names....its hard. i do
like the girls gone wild idea tho! or something like get out of the
kitchen and ski! haha. or the princess jam, or something. but honestly i think the girls gone wild idea works, and its like we are going wild and taking over the park, how often does that happen? and it catches peoples attention. or there might be trademark problems, you could call it girls gone crazy, or girls gone steezy or something.
but let me know if you need any help with anything, i would love to help!!!

the GIRLS GONE _____ idea makes me laugh so hard, just because of the whole play on GGW. nick's totally right about the spring seshes though, the vibes from that are sooo fun. it's still work, but it's a lot more lax.

I doubt I'd be able to cruise out to the east coast, but I wanted to give props for a sick idea. I hope you can pull it together!

Bump.
This sounds so rad. All the ideas are awesome. Well done for taking the initiative for organising such an event, thats gotta be a lot of work. Just wish I lived a little closer... I'll be watching out for the edit when the time comes!

The whole thing sounds awesome. It would be cool if you could have different sized jump lines, so there could be some bigger jumps.
Thanks for all the work!! Hope it happens
