Couples Celebrate Valentine's Day in Style at Loveland
This past Sunday, Valentine's Day, nearly 70 couples either got married or renewed their vows high atop the Continental Divide here at Loveland Ski Area. Not only did they participate in one of America's most unique events, but they were also treated with some of the best conditions of the season.

The Hose Relay is a slalom style race in which teams of 5 navigate the gates in fireman's coats and helmets, the whole while holding on to a 50 foot fire hose. This challenging event not only riles up the competitive nature of these teams, but also raises important funds for the St. Anthony's Children's Hospital Burn Clinic.

Loveland Celebrates the Winter Olympics
Everyone here at Loveland is excited about the winter Olympics and not just because we love winter sports, but because some of the top competitors spent the early season training and competing here at Loveland Ski Area. Congratulations to Lindsey Vonn for her gold in the downhill and also to Julia Mancuso who collected her second silver of the 2010 games earlier today. She is now the most decorated female skier in Olympic history.

And let's not forget about Hannah Kearney, Shaun White and Shani Davis who all won gold in 2010. USA!
