Ski Jump in Westby near Westby House Inn
Soaring through the air...Westby Ski Jump Tournament
On the evening of February 3, 2012 International ski jumpers will take the sky under the lights at the annual Snowflake Ski Club’s 118K ski jump tournament in Westby, Wisconsin. The tournament concludes on Saturday with International and US jumpers competing on the large hill, often traveling down the jump with speeds in excess of 50 miles per hour. Here are the details: Friday, February 3rd, Opening Ceremonies: 7 pm, followed by jumps. Fireworks and Live Music: 9p.m. – 12a.m. Saturday, February 4th, Opening Ceremonies: 12:00 p.m. followed by jumps. Live Music: 3-7 p.m.
Westby House Inn’s location is just 5 miles from the jump and well worth the stay to take in the Friday and Saturday events. Wake up to a hearty breakfast to get you warmed up and ready to enjoy this wonderful winter event. Perhaps a Jacuzzi Suite is the perfect way to top off a well deserved winter weekend getaway.

The volunteer based Club members donate many hours preparing and grooming the hills. The snowmaking and grooming equipment keep the hills in good condition regardless of natural snowfall. The show does go on with real fluffy stuff or not! Plan now to attend!
