Meadows Film Festival

Turn Your Talent and Passion Into Prizes

Full Sail Brewing, Dakine and GoPro present the fourth annual Meadows Film Festival, March 17th, from 4 - 7 PM at the Vertical Restaurant and Sports Bar.

We've received some awesome films, showcasing the riding and film making talents of our locals. It's a friendly competition to celebrate the beauty of our mountain, the talent of those who ski and ride here and the creativity of local film / video makers. The fourth annual Meadows Film Festival will showcase local talent - on the hill as well as behind the camera. Come join us in celebrating this mountain and this sport that we all love!

The Top 10 Finalists will each receive a special logoed backpack or camera bag from Dakine. Finalists 6-10 will also receive a gift certificate for a free pair of KEEN shoes. The top 5 finalists will each receive a GoPro Hero3 Silver Edition Camera, and the top 3 finalists will also receive a LCD Touch BacPac and a Battery Bacpac for their GoPro. The winner will receive $500 cash, thanks to Full Sail Brewing!
