Slopeside Slumber Party

Straight Up like Paula Details: 📍 Location: Roundtop Mountain Resort📅 Date: Saturday, August 15th, 2026⏰ Time: 8 PM – 11 PM🏔 Course: ~1.5-mile loop with 600 feet of elevation gainThe main course is 0.5 miles of pavement and 1 mile of mowed grass. The brutal climb is 600 feet to the highest point in York County then an incredibly steep descent to party headquarters. Trail shoes are highly recommended for the descent. The steepness on the descent can't be emphasized enough - it is steep! You'll receive a pog each time you complete a loop as proof of your accomplishment. Top 3 winners receive slammers!!!
