Jackson Hole On Ice Weekend and Nashville Unplugged Gala
March 3 - 7, 2011

Join Spring Creek Ranch and the Jackson Hole Moose Hockey in supporting a great event benefiting the Jackson Hole Youth Hockey and the USA Warriors Hockey Program.

The On Ice Weekend is a unique fundraising event centered around the game of ice hockey.   The goal of the On Ice Weekend is to favorably promote the game of hockey, foster new friendships, and support in the community of Jackson Hole.  Check out the schedule of events on the On Ice Weekend Website.

The USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program has been organized to operate exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, for United States Military personnel wounded in defense of the United States in conjunction with the USA Disabled Hockey Program. The Program's  mission is to organize and administer an ice hockey program that provides a recreational, therapeutic experience and education to its participants. Some of the program's purposes include, but are not limited to:

• 1. Encouraging the formation of ‘USA Warrior Hockey Programs' locally and nationally;
• 2. To educate, train, motivate and encourage, individuals who have physical disabilities incurred during service to the United States, to participate in the sport of ice hockey in an environment that is adapted to the level of ability of the participating athletes;
• 3. To integrate people with disabilities with people without disabilities in order to promote awareness of challenges and to encourage team building;
• 4. To use the game of hockey to assist individuals with disabilities in developing self-confidence, adjusting to their new lifestyle, rehabilitation, self-reliance, concentration, and to assist in helping participants back into mainstream lifestyles they were accustomed to prior to their disability, that will help the individual be more successful both within and outside a hockey environment;
• 5. To educate and encourage the general public about disability sports and the USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program in particular and to promote societal awareness of the sacrifices participants made in defense of our nation.

Experience Spring in Jackson Hole at Spring Creek Ranch

Spring is a time of new beginnings and what could be better then a relaxing stay in Jackson Hole and Spring Creek Ranch?  April starts off with a fly fishing extravaganza.  Start your fishing season in style on the world famous Snake River.  April is "Off the Charts" fly fishing with low clear water with hungry trout coming off the lethargy of winter.  Cozy up to the fireplace in your deluxe hotel room, breakfast at the award winning Granary Restaurant, and a day of fly fishing.

May and June bring all kinds of new life to Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Park.  Enjoy a guided Safari to view the wildlife of the parks.  The Calves, Cubs, & Kids Special is just the ticket to see where the animals are.  4 nights in a deluxe hotel room, breakfast at the award winning Granary Restaurant and two different safari's plus much more!

Dawn or Dusk Safari - Embark upon a first-class journey into Jackson Hole. This Wildlife Safari offers a personal and unforgettable wildlife experience rivaling a National Geographic special! Each tour is custom tailored to meet your specific interests, coupled with privately guided and chauffeured vans. Spring is an incredible time of year to see all of Jackson's wildlife as many migratory animals move North through the valley.

Best of Yellowstone - This extraordinary trip will focus on the dramatic qualities that influenced the decision to make Yellowstone the world's first national park. These qualities include the park's spectacular wildlife, the most famous geysers in the world and never-ending scenery. A Yellowstone trip will always vary to account for wildlife sightings and group interests, but stops typically include Old Faithful, the colorful waterfalls of Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and the wildlife of Hayden Valley. Lunch is included and is often taken near Old Faithful.

Maybe you're interested in immersing yourself with nature?  The Wolf and Bear Safari might be your choice.

Wolf and Bear Safari - Join an experienced guide in learning about and searching for the most famous predators in North America.  The wolves of Yellowstone are notoriously visible if you know where to look and have been seen every day by visitors somewhere in the park since 2001.  Spring is an ideal time to see wolves and bears since the park receives few visitors and the predators are actively hunting for newborn elk, moose, and bison.  This Safari is not to be missed.  Four days spent searching and viewing the bears, gray wolves and the natural splendor of Yellowstone National Park.

Check out the Naturalist Field Notes to see what others are seeing while on our Wildlife Safaris.

Come to Jackson Hole this May and enjoy the beginning of summer and the great events that we have to offer.  May 22 and 23rd is the 43rd annual World Famous Jackson Hole Boy Scouts Elk Antler Auction.  An exciting time for celebrating nature, outdoor skills, hunting and ecological education and awareness.

Every spring, thousands of elk wintering on the National Elk Refuge lose their antlers before they migrate to their summer range. The Boy Scouts assist the Refuge with harvesting the shed antlers and auction them to bidders from around the world who make furniture, wall decorations, jewelry and food products from them.

This annual event, which includes a Chili Cook-Off with live musical performances, and the kick-off of a Mountain Man Rendezvous and an Antler Rendezvous, supports the winter feeding program on the National Elk Refuge with 80% of auction proceeds going back to the Refuge.
