Steamboat Resort takes cue from Snow Bowl, starts offering free meals to public

Snow Bowl has since served over 2,700 meals to the community

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. — Steamboat Ski & Resort Corp. is taking a cue from Snow Bowl and launching an effort to help the community in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

After witnessing the generosity of Snow Bowl’s Family Bowl program, which has seen local chefs create thousands of meals for those in need across the community, Ski Corp. has created its own free meal pick-up plan for local residents. Working in conjunction with Snow Bowl, the resort’s goal is to help feed those facing hardships on either end of Steamboat Springs at different times throughout the day.

Steamboat residents can now collect the re-heatable dishes through a contactless process at the resort’s Transportation Center. Resort staff will place the meals outside of a person’s car door while observing proper social distancing and safety guidelines. Residents should drive through the Gondola Square parking garage to receive their bag of food.

“This is a difficult time for Steamboat Springs and many of our neighbors are in need,” said Rob Perlman, president and COO of Steamboat Resort. “The resort has resources available to help fulfill that need, and we are grateful to be in a position to share that with our community.”
