| Description: | You want the full scoop? Go to our website: http://www.thebob.com/railjam.html The season will end as snowboarders and skiers rock the rails as The B.O.B.'s surrounding parking lots are transformed into a winter sports fanatic's dream. A 40 foot high ramp will be constructed and snow piles prodded into perfect position for this three day family-friendly event. Locals and visitors clad in their winter gear can enjoy music, food, riders, and raffle prizes with the surrounding downtown skyline as the backdrop. The Rail Jam is slated to begin with preliminary runs on the 27th, and continue through the weekend with prizes being awarded in many different categories for riders of many skill levels. Sponsors will provide lots of swag and free giveaways, the grill will be fired up, and music will be crankin'. Come and enjoy what's left of winter! Thanks to the good folks at FOX 17, WGRD, SKYY, Wind Waves and Wheels, MC Sports, Red Bull, Burton Snowboards, and On The Town Magazine, we're making one of the biggest winter events to ever hit downtown! SKYY Vodka is our main ramp sponsor for this event, so be sure to stop on down and check out our full line of SKYY Infusions. We'll also be featuring Cabo Wabo Tequila.
