Summer 2019

To our friends in the media,

Not long after winter wrapped up, spring was kicking off at Windham Country Club. Golf season is now in full swing, and Saturday, May 25th, marked the opening of Windham Mountain Bike Park and the Scenic Skyride.

Events abound this summer at Windham, with the popular Music on the Mountain Series, presented by GNH Lumber expanding to eight Fridays, starting July 12th and running through August 30th, Labor Day Weekend. Each Friday evening, guests can take a free Skyride to the Wheelhouse Lodge for a BBQ, outdoor bar, and live music on the deck.

In August, the inaugural Keg, Rattle & Roll in the Catskills Festival, presented by The Great Northern Catskills, will feature dozens of craft beers, ciders, and wines, as well as a great lineup of live music, craft vendors, and tasty food options in a beautiful outdoor setting! Admission to the festival is free. Glassware and tasting tickets are available at windhammountain.com in advance at a lower rate, or on site at the festival.

Of course, part of summer at Windham is always preparing for winter. Crews are on the mountain every day working on the relocation of our high-speed quad chairlift to the “C Lift” position, installing miles of new snowmaking pipe and putting up a new booster pump house on the East Peak.

I invite you to come visit us this summer to make your own year-round mountain memories, minutes away!

Best Regards,
