Winter Carnival, presented by Subaru of Bend

Now in its 32nd year, Hoodoo’s Winter Carnival is a celebration of the fun and excitement of winter recreation in the Northwest. The day-long schedule of events includes an ax throwing booth, frisbee golf, musical chairs, a three-legged obstacle race, a team tube race, a hula-hoop contest, a pie eating contest, a ski javelin throw, a Hoodoo employee snow sculpture contest and bingo. The Winter Carnival dinner menu will include an 8 oz. Traeger-grilled prime rib, garlic mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables, salad and dessert for just $15.95.

The always popular Dummy Downhill contest at 3 p.m. features large figures made by Hoodoo guests. The dummies, which are attached to skis or sled runners, are sent flying down a steep course with a snow-packed jump that leads them to a stunning crash.
