Very early plans are like this:

Down/Flat/Down
40' Flat Down (20x20)
20' T-Box
16' Box
Wall ride below the entire setup

These are only initial plans, nothing final yet. Depends on when and if we finish building a couple rails.

I'm not sure about the sponsors this year, but past years, there's been some companies that showed up and supported the winners. Plus, it's a turkey AND homemade jam....haha.

I know ninthward was interested, but not sure if they got in contact with anyone or not...

29 Turkey Jam
The Annual Turkey Jam at Cascade. Last year was crazy; we had over 80 competitors show up for the first rail jam of our season. Same format, jam style with features we have ready, depending on snow conditions. Prizes of course include frozen turkeys and homemade jam. Come on out and get down with your funky self. This event will either be held on the Bunny slope or near the Daisy in the new Rail Yard park. Registration fees will be $1.00 AND a few non-perishable food items to be donated to a local food pantry. Lift tickets are required. Helmets are required. Starts at High Noon, registration starts at 11am. (12:00pm on Saturday, November 29, 2008).

i dont know about the upcoming one but i went to like 2 last year and they were both a joke. yea, skiers were allowed but it was definately a snowboarding oriented event. i guess they were kinda fun tho.
