Skiers, snowboarders and winter weather sports enthusiasts and their families will find mountains of fun, blowout prices on top-of-the-line equipment, accessories and clothing, with savings up to 70 percent; discounts on ski travel and resort packages; and an opportunity to help South Florida families and neighbors in need.

"Because South Florida has cold snaps too, we've teamed up with One Warm Coat, a national charity, to collect gently worn warm clothing for The Broward Partnership for the Homeless (Fort Lauderdale, FL), The Cooperative Feeding Program (Fort Lauderdale, FL) and The Children's Place at Homesafe (West Palm Beach, FL)," states David Mahoney, Peter Glenn Ski & Sports marketing director. He continues, "We invite the community to open their hearts and empty their closets for a community hit hard by the real estate bust and recession." For each jacket donated, Peter Glenn Ski & Sports will award a $10 coupon, good towards the purchase of a new jacket.

Show hours for the Southeast Winter Sports Show are Friday, October 2nd, 1 to 9pm, Saturday and Sunday, October 3rd and 4th, 10am to 6pm each day. Admission is free for children under the age of 16 and $5.00 for adults.
