Rail Jam At The B.O.B.
It's that time of year again. Rail Jam is happening the 26th-28th at The B.O.B. downtown. You can get a full account of what's happening here. But here's a short version - Rail Jam is like a snowboarding event that uses, well, rails to show off some skills. It's a free event to the public and they even provide entertainment. They'll have live bands and DJ's playing music throughout the event. This is an all ages event and competition so it's definitely family friendly. And with the winter olympics going on this could be your family trip to see winter sports in action without costing you more than say parking fees. Just remember to bundle up to stay warm.
