Aspen Gay Ski Week Returns to The Limelight Hotel
Premier GLBT Winter Travel Event
is January 13-20, 2013
Aspen Gay Ski Week, the nation’s largest and oldest
gay ski event, returns to Aspen’s newest hotel, The Limelight Hotel, for the
fifth consecutive year from January 13 to 20, 2013.
“Nestled steps from Aspen
Mountain and just beside Wagner Park, The Limelight offers its guests the best
of mountain adventure in a contemporary and relaxed atmosphere,” said Richard
Stettner, general manager of the hotel.
Each afternoon during Aspen
Gay Ski Week, The Limelight hosts popular après-ski events from 3:00 p.m. to
7:00 p.m., attracting up to 1,000 nightly. Sponsored by Bud Light and Svedka,
the après-ski parties feature DJ entertainment, free gifts from sponsors, a
hospitality suite, heated pool and two hot-tubs.
The hotel extends a variety
of amenities to its guests, including an expanded continental breakfast;
complimentary in-town, airport and ski area transportation; complimentary use
of the hotel’s fleet of snowshoes; and exclusive ski programs. The property’s
“First Tracks” program gives guests early access to Aspen Mountain before it
opens to the general public, while “Inside Tracks” is an all-day opportunity to
get the insider’s scoop on Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands and Snowmass while
skiing or riding with Aspen’s top professionals.
The Limelight is a member of Preferred
Hotel Group's Preferred Pride collection,
a distinctive group of independently owned and operated hotels that support the
GLBT traveler. The hotel always extends a complimentary bottle of wine at
check-in for those booking under this program.

“A benefit
for the Roaring Fork Gay & Lesbian Community Fund (RFGLCF), Aspen Gay Ski
Week also hosts exciting nightly events and the popular downhill costume
competition on Friday,” remarked Todd Heimel, board president of RFGLCF. “Back
by popular demand is the ‘mountaintop party,’ accessible only by a moonlit
gondola ride up Aspen Mountain, to an elevation of 11,000 feet. Once there,
guests dance the night away at high altitude.”
