Snow Bomb Park

08/11/2026

Anybody got any cool videos from Snow Bomb Park Freestyle Edition from last year? Unfortunately I was way too busy and didn’t get a chance to take a single video of all the cool things y’all came up with. The human bowling pins were my personal favorite along with your Superman stunts.

So while we have boring times here in the weather department, we are always working on our next big events and would love to add you into our official public video release for this upcoming year.

I know y’all loved that rule change to do your own thing since we are the only Snow Tubing Park in the U.S. that allows this. No worries though, Freestyle will be back again this year unless the track speed exceeds 48mph but I need some of your good content please!

Thank You,
- Chad

❤️ MUST READ!! HLEW FEATURED STORY OF INSPIRATION ❤️

Happy Sunday y’all. I hope everyone has had a chance to get out and enjoy all this beautiful snow! I come here today to share a story of inspiration to you all which I think you will find is amazing as I did. This one hit deep for me which is why I’ve held back on releasing this sooner because I didn’t want it to get lost in the headlines from the big storm.

Things have finally calmed down now and I feel now is the right time to share. As you all know, we put together a community extreme snow tubing event each year called “Snow Bomb Park” for families near and far to come and enjoy. Little did I know I would meet the most positive and inspiring young gal I’ve ever met.

Meet Salome pictured below. She came out to SBP with her Dad and Sister to take on the enormously steep and famous “KC Hill” for some extreme snow day fun! For those that don’t know… This hill is legendary and has a very intense drop with more steep thrills and humps at the bottom. The kicker: SHE WENT DOWN IT BLIND!!!

As most of you know, I too am a member of the half-blind community having only one working eye. The hill can be scary enough for most of us who can see to take it on under normal circumstances but not would I EVER have the courage to go down this hill without any eyesight whatsoever!

Salome was born in another country with an extremely rare condition called Bilateral Anophthalmia. For those that don’t know what this condition is… It means she was born without any eyeballs at all.

As you all know, I have zero tolerance for any forms of discrimination having a disability myself, so I could only imagine all she’s been through but never lets anything get in her way. I am huge advocate for all those with disabilities to exceed their capabilities and Salome sure took it to the next level having NO FEAR whatsoever by jumping on a snow tube and speeding down the slope at over 45mph completely blind and unaware of her surroundings. The empowerment she demonstrated truly gave me hope and brought tears to my eyes.

Having first met Salome, we had a very personal conversation discussing our hardships and immediately connected on a level most will never understand. She is just 14 Years old and was given up for adoption. Thankfully, Salome has been blessed with a great family that knows her superpowers and treats her like a normal person with nothing but love. This is how every disabled person wants to be recognized as. Normal and nothing more.

She is beyond smart and aspires to be an attorney one day. No doubt in my mind that her dream will come true after instantly seeing how amazingly smart she is in the legal field. Her and her family are from Wentzville, Missouri. She enjoys traveling, reading books from braille, writing and singing. Nothing in her path gets in the way of her condition and is a huge inspiration to all - especially those of us with disabilities by not letting her condition stop her from enjoying life to the fullest!

Salome likes to call me Mr. Chad and I will honorably go by that name any day seeing how much hope and encouragement she gave me not to mention how much she truly aspired every single person at SBP that day. She is one talented individual with a bright future ahead. We dedicate this year’s event to her. Additionally, she is the only person ever to be given the HLEW Gold Key with her family to come to SBP free for life or any other event we do for that matter.

It is my hope that you all took this moment to fully read this. Salome had a blast at Snow Bomb Park conquering the hill so many times that day. I even got the chance to tube doubles down the hill with her which was so much fun!

I’m she would love to hear words of encouragement from y’all below if you would like to take a moment to leave a comment for her.

Take Care,
- Chad

⚠️ LOST AND FOUND ⚠️ If any of you are missing any gloves or winter items from attending Snow Bomb Park please send us a message so we can get them back to you. We found several lost items tearing the park down yesterday.

Our hearts are absolutely overflowing with gratitude and love! The outpouring of community support has been nothing short of incredible — truly beyond anything we could have imagined. Your loyalty, enthusiasm, and belief in what we do has not gone unnoticed.

From the bottom of our hearts, we personally want to THANK the hundreds upon hundreds of families who came out to support our exclusive event! You showed up, showed out, and made this an unforgettable experience.

This has been a truly record-breaking year — selling out 4 out of 5 nights! While we are beyond grateful, we also sincerely apologize to those who weren’t able to secure tickets in time. We are already exploring options to expand and improve for our next edition — hopefully later this season if possible.

We were absolutely blown away by how many of you traveled from near and far to experience our extreme snow tubing park — including visitors from Indiana, Oklahoma, Illinois, Kansas, and even Florida! That level of commitment means more to us than words can express.

💙 THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!! 💙

Events like this are only possible because of an incredible team behind the scenes. A massive shoutout to our 100% volunteer crew — you didn’t just help run this event, you MADE it happen. You kept everyone safe, kept things organized, and helped keep costs low so families could enjoy a very affordable, fun-filled experience together.

You are the real Heroes of Snow Bomb Park!

THANK YOU to every single volunteer who selflessly gave their time, energy, and heart to support our local community. We could not have done this without you.

And to everyone who attended, to the local businesses who supported us, and to every person who helped spread the word — you all played a vital role in making this event such a HUGE success!

We truly hope to bring you another edition of SBP later this season. Until then, from our team to yours…

With much love, appreciation, and gratitude.

❄️ Snow Bomb Park is already sold out for the day folks. We apologize to those of you unable to attend today. We hope you’ll be able to join us on the next event when we are able to open back up! ❄️

01/19/2026

❄️ FYI - We get hundreds of questions about this every year so I’ll say it before or if it happens…

Snow Bomb Park WILL NOT Operate with a big natural snow on the ground. We tried this once last year and although we kept the event very safe for everyone, it ultimately put our own safety team at risk because there’s just too many obstacles and speed involved going down that second slope so fast and that far and just another reason why sledding has not been allowed for years there.

Safety has and always will be our #1 Priority. If we even think there’s a small risk to safety at anytime we DO NOT run and I’ve had to make that call in the past to shut the track down early when conditions change. It’s something we take VERY Seriously. We don’t advertise our event as ‘extreme’ to make it sound cool. It’s because it truly is that extreme! We have a great relationship with the KC whom also does so much for our community.

Together, it’s our goal to keep the legendary hill alive and going for many years to come. But in the end SAFETY WILL ALWAYS BE OUR MAIN PRIORITY!!

It’s our last operating day today for a while at Snow Bomb Park and we still have some discounted tickets available. So if you’d like to join us for this edition, today is our FINAL DAY OPEN for this edition.

Thank you for understanding,
- Chad

Winners will be announced on Tuesday. Then we shall get back to talking about our next potential system… And our First Ever featured story which we don’t do here. It hits as close as it gets and will likely bring you to tears as it did to me. Men do cry.

💙 Huge thanks to our Chef Meteorologist Tim for keeping you all in the know about potential winter weather coming up while I’m away running SBP.

Thank you everyone for the Most Amazing Year Yet!
