From the Buffalo News:
The nation may have just finished celebrating its Independence Day, but there are a good number of people whose idea of fun in the sun includes a trip to a winter wonderland that has snow-covered hills and a skating pond.
Those folks can now indulge themselves to their heart’s content in summertime heat. In an area that gets a bad rap for its winter weather, it’s all snow all the time at Snow Park Niagara Falls — except the blustery conditions currently are on ice.
Snow Park, which already held its grand-opening gala June 20 — in the rain no less — will hold an even bigger coming out party Thursday night when the venue plays host to a top amateur snowboarding competition, the Red Bull Butter Cup.
