SLUSH CUP | 1PM

The annual Slush Cup at Spring Carnival is one of the wildest, wettest, and most entertaining events of the season at Giants Ridge! This fan-favorite spectacle challenges skiers and snowboarders to gain enough speed to skim across the icy pond...or take an unforgettable plunge.

The Best Part? Costumes!

Follow the theme and strap on your favorite team's uniform or jersey. Make sure its one that makes a big splash!

While only a few conquer the pond, everyone walks away with great memories, and possibly a prize based on their scores from our judges!

Whether you're competing or cheering from the sidelines, Slush Cup is the highlight of Spring Carnival.
