Tots & Teens in Telluride

Here in Telluride, we have a little something for everyone. If you're looking for activities and events, other than our world class ski mountain, Telluride has many activities available for the whole family!

So for anyone who loves point ballet, there was a real treat for you in Telluride on Sunday October 18th. The State Street Ballet performed Cinderella at the Palm Theatre. The show was lots of fun. Of course, all I need to have a good time is guys in drag, popcorn, and kids in cute costumes. Seriously- guys in drag. Cinderella's stepsisters were men dressed in hoop skirts and silly accessories, which provided fantastic comedic relief rarely seen in point ballet.

The sun was shining, the sky was blue, and it felt like summer. Lots of locals were out with their dogs and Telluride couldn't be a more pet friendly place. The favorite local hang out for dogs is the San Miguel River trail.

Well sports fans, if you weren't in Telluride on Friday then you missed the biggest sports event of the year. For rubber ducks. Yes, the KOTO duck race was this Friday featuring little plastic yellow ducks "swimming" their little hearts out for their sponsors.

Tatum Tice is a beautiful two year old girl who is trying her hand at skiing. She's a Telluride baby and I'm sure she'll catch onto skiing soon and be chasing Ruby Tanguay down Telluride Trail before you know it. But for now, she needs mom's help.

  While Telluride is mostly known for its downhill skiing in the winter, there are a lot of other fun winter sports going on as well. A few Sundays ago, a local girl scout troop enjoyed a guided snowshoeing adventure on the ski mountain. We enjoyed incredible views and incredible snow.

Let me begin by saying that I am not an advanced skier. While the footage from last month's entry is amazing- courtesy of fellow sales team members Chris Esch and Hart Roberts- it's just not my speed. One question we get a lot is, "is the mountain ok for beginner skiers." I can say with the up most confidence- yes, it is.
