stick taps for our sponsors!!
sponsors help make the zamboni go round… literally!
The Winthrop Rink is supported by the sponsorship donations of over 70 local businesses and organizations. Thanks to them, we’re able to host tournaments and provide year-round programming for youth and adults at an affordable rate.
Tourism is the lifeblood of the local economy in Winthrop, Mazama, and Twisp. As the Winthrop Rink has become the premier destination for outdoor skating and recreation in the Pacific Northwest, it’s become an economic engine for the region. As they say, high waters raise all boat. Or does it freeze the water? Ok. That metaphor got away from us.
We’re honored that over 70 local businesses give back as sponsors of the Winthrop Rink. They help us keep programming affordable for youth and adults, they make it possible to host tournaments, plus they make the rink look fantastic with those beautiful graphics!
As you plan your trip to the Methow Valley, we would appreciate your patronage of our sponsors. They literally make our skaters — and Zamboni — go round. (Finally, a metaphor that works.)
