BECAUSE, LIKE, THERE'S NO TOMORROW >>>
As you know, the new Warren Miller film is headed our way in November. Like There's No Tomorrow will hit Tacoma's Pantages Theater Nov. 5-6 and Olympia's Washington Center Nov. 10-11. Warren Miller Entertainment - whose name is as synonymous with skiing and snowboarding as K2, Salomon or Burton - has been wowing crowds with its cinematic visions of extreme snow sports for 62 years. Its latest film continues the tradition of following the daredevil exploits of skiers, snowboarders and other powder-trashing riders across the globe.
Alas, like a finely crafted Burton snowboard, attending these film screenings doesn't come cheap: Tickets for the event are around $20 a pop. Unless, that is, you win one of the many, many pairs of tickets we'll be giving away at the Warren Miller Prefunc Saturday, Nov. 5 at the Harmon Brewery & Eatery in downtown Tacoma. That's right powderheads, the Weekly Volcano and The Harmon are teaming up to pump a little snow through your veins.
So here's the deal:
First, Harmon Volcano's Warren Miller Prefunc party will run 3-9 p.m. that Saturday. The Harmon's happy hour runs 3-6 p.m. as usual, which is nice. However, because it's a freakin' party, drink specials will continue through 9 p.m.
Second, we're hosting a raffle with past Warren Miller film DVDs and pairs of tickets to all four screenings of Like There's No Tomorrow in Tacoma and Olympia.
Third, there will be a "Best Snow Bum Costume" contest at 5 and 8 p.m. with a $50 Harmon gift card on the line.
Fourth, we'll be handing out a bunch of snow-related swag throughout the party.
And last, we've only just begun to think about the craziest that will happen the Harmon Volcano's Warren Miller Prefunc party. For certain there will be rowdy send-offs for those attending Like There's No Tomorrow that night at the Pantages. And there will be another rowdy welcome when those from the 6 p.m. screening return for more partying.
Have at, snow fans! RSVP to the event on Facebook here. Start planning your snow bum costume. Let's do this thing.
UPDATE ONE: Ben Union will perform live.
UPDATE TWO: One of the raffle prizes will be a $500 gift card to Sturtevant's sporting goods store.
UPDATE THREE: Another raffle prize we'll be giving away at the Warren Miller Prefunc will be a two night lodging with two lift tickets per night at Crystal Mountain Resort.
