Empire State Winter Games
Adirondack Park, New York
Are you into watching athletes snowboard, ski or winter bike at breakneck speeds? Do you feel the thrill of competition, even when you're on the sidelines? Then
the Empire State Winter Games has something for you! Stand on the slopes of Titus
Mountain, Mount Pisgah or Whiteface Mountain
as competitors roll, soar, slide and carve their way over jumps, bumps and woops. You'll never be far from the action, and you'll never be far from a cup of hot chocolate, either! The 2019 Empire State Winter Games is a multiday sports event hosted in the Adirondack Park, New York. In its 39th year, the Games will bring together athletes from across New York State and beyond to compete in more than
30 winter sports events. The 2018 Games included more than 2,100 athletes of all ages, including master divisions, and the 2019 Games are expected to exceed that number. There is no charge by Empire State Winter Games to watch any sport although some venues charge an entry fee for the venue. www.empirestatewintergames.com
