Crested Butte. A Winter Kick-Off Party and special Member’s Preview will take place on Friday, November 4 from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. with CBSF memberships available for purchase at the door and throughout the swap. On Saturday Nov. 5th, 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon doors will be open to the public. “This year’s swap will be two days with the return of the Winter Kick-Off Party and Member’s Preview on Friday,” says CBSF executive director Erica Rasmussen, “Local retailers will be participating with closeout inventory and demo gear for sale, most lightly used but there will be some new gear too. We welcome all snow sports gear; alpine and Nordic skis, snowboards, snowshoes, AT gear and splitboards. If it slides or glides, we’ll help you sell it,” added Rasmussen.
