Winter Adventure Park Debuts in Rockford

If you've been missing the snow this winter, there's one place in Rockford that has plenty of it.

Thanks to man made snow, you can now ski, snow board or go tubing at the new Alpine Hills Adventure Park that opened over the weekend. I'm especially excited because my family and I love to ski; I can even teach you how.

The park, which was open briefly for the weekend, has all the equipment you need on site or you can bring your own. An official grand opening is scheduled for next month. To check park hours, call 815-227-4604 or visit gatewayparks.com.
