If downhill isn’t your jam, WOC will be there renting out Nordic skis, sleds, tubes, and snowshoes, so you can still have a great time playing in the snow. Even if you aren’t winter-inclined there will be a great tailgate lunch (IMPORTANT: YOU NEED TO SIGN UP HERE http://goo.gl/forms/nhyyEhvxuk) and student bands performing around lunchtime. There will be busses leaving from the top of Mission Hill every ½ hour – no personal vehicles are allowed @ Mt. Greylock, so grab some friends and hop on a bus!
