Scavenger Hunt: Who Are We? Where Are We?
Our employees are amazing. They come from all over the country to live life in Mt. Hood with Windells Camp. Once August starts to slip away, they all eventually have to go back to reality and back to their roots. As winter settles in, our employees are building parks, taking classes, teaching lessons, and just about everything you can think of to pass the time until summer rolls around.
Countdown to Winter Camp Begins!
Winter Camp is so close we can almost taste the piles of powder and the overflowing hot chocolate. We know that spending time at home is nice, but we also know that spending time at Windells on Mt. Hood is a little nicer. Just in case you missed it, here is some footage from one of our banners years here in Oregon.

Windells Employees Make Movies Too
Well, the leaves are falling, and in some parts of the country so is the snow! As all of us gear up for the winter, premier season comes to a close. Our friends at Burton, Forum, Rome SDS, Think Thank, and Videograss produced some jaw dropping entertainment this year. If these flicks can’t get you stoked for the winter season, well then you better hang up your puffy. We were blown away by the all of the films, and I’m sure you guys were too. For those of you who missed out, don’t worry! Tons of freshly made DVDs are being shipped to your local shops as we speak.

Winter Camp Photo Contest
Winter Camp is coming. Mount Hood has a new blanket of snow and the lifts are starting to turn. Some people are thinking about Halloween costumes, but not us. We are thinking about that first heavy snow fall, a midday hot chocolate, and a face mask painted white from pow shots. In honor of the new 2011/2012 powder filled season and our upcoming Winter Camp, we are giving you guys a chance to earn some money towards this session! That’s right, it’s contest time.
Start searching through those desktop folders, because we want to see YOU and your best powder photo. Show us something good. A cliff drop, a heavy pow turn, you digging out your car, anything with you YOU and POWDER. First place will get a Windells prize pack along with $100 off the cost of Winter Camp. Seconds place will get a sticker pack and $75 off, and third place gets a sticker pack and $50 off. We will give you until next Friday the 21st to get us your entries. Send us those pictures!
*Send one entry per person to marsha@windells.com by Friday Oct. 21st at 3pm Pacific Time.
DTTD with Rome SDS
This past weekend we got a chance to catch up with the Rome SDS crew for some premiers, some shenanigans, and of course, the Downtown Throwdown. Winter is in the air as the national tour for “The Shred Remains” comes to an end. Having traveled from coast to coast in a van they call home, it was nice for the team to get out and peruse the town, and even do a little guest judging and competing. The 6th Annual DTTD, set in Pioneer Square, attracted a mixed crowd of die hard fans and first time spectators. We joined LNP, Johnny Lazz, Marie France-Roy, Rusty Ockenden, John Cavan, Riley Nickerson, and Derrek Lever for a little taste of snowboarding in the Pacific Northwest.
Summer Caption Contest Winner
Well, it’s Friday, and that means the Summer Caption Contest has come to an end. We got tons of responses so thanks for taking part in the challenge! The lucky winner will get a custom Windells NXTZ, DVD, and sticker pack. You earned it. Before we can announce the winner, we want to share some of our favorite responses with you guys. Here are the top 5 Honorable Mentions:
“I think I left the sink running….” – Jonny
“I swear I told Forest that it was Hawaiian shirt day.” – Ben
“At Windells, not only can you learn to ski and snowboard like a pro, but Forest Bailey can also teach you how to professionally clean the 6.0 kicker!” – Vince
“(sigh). I swear if he doesn’t get down I’m going to make a caption contest and put it on the Windells site.” – Troy
“Wow, polarized lenses see through more than water!!” – Brad
Now for the big winner. Congrats to Cora Belsher for filling in Mr. Johnny Lazz’s thought bubble with a fun and creative response. “Wow, I can’t believe he can do a one arm push-up in that position.” It’s funny and also believable. Forest Bailey is exceptionally strong. I mean really, that kid wakes up and just starts lifting weights. Congratulations again Cora! You are the lucky winner of a Windells custom prize pack. Stay tuned everyone for more contests all winter long!
