Gretchen Bleiler, Aspen/Snowmass Team Athlete and Olympian, dreamed up a weekend of photo shoots, competitions and activities for pro women snowboarders, and it's coming to fruition during the last weekend of the eighth annual Bud Light Spring Jam.

Fifteen of the world's best snowboarders will attend including Bleiler, Hannah Teter, Kelly Clark, Tricia Byrnes, Elena Hight, Molly Aguirre, Clair Bidez, Soko Yamaoka, Kaitlyn Farrington, Shiho Nakashima, Ellery Hollingsworth, Paulina Ligocka, Lizzy Beerman, Meg Pugh and Manuela Pesko.

"This event will be the perfect way to end the season and bring everyone together to ride, hang out and have some fun," says Bleiler. "The weekend is turning out to be even bigger and better than I expected thanks to the support of the sponsors and Aspen/Snowmass. I can't wait."

A session in the superpipe and quarterpipe kicks-off the weekend on Friday, April 4, from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. in Snowmass with viewing open to the public.

The action continues at the Snowmass superpipe and quarterpipe on Saturday, April 5, with a competition from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. The competition will include a jam session contest with full superpipe runs, followed by a one-hit contest awarding the rider with the best trick.

On Sunday, April 6, the athletes will have a photo shoot at the Snowmass superpipe and quarterpipe from 10 a.m.–2 p.m., with viewing open to the public. Several pros will also teach the Snow Angels Terrain Park Boot Camp on Fanny Hill from 12 – 3 p.m. The Boot Camp welcomes new rail and park riders (both skiers and snowboarders) to learn from top coaches and pros.

The CoverGirl Snow Angels Invitational is more than a simple superpipe competition. The weekend will feature a welcome reception, spa activities, yoga, environmental workshops, cooking workshops and a night out on the town for the athletes.
