Poster: A snowHead
|
For the last few years I've fancied going to watch the Warren Miller films but they never seem to be showing within a reasonable distance to home.
So I've been thinking about putting on a film / snow sports night myself but I'm not sure if anyone would be interested. We live in the Peak District so there should be lots of snow loving folks around (I hope)
Does this sound like a good idea??

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Home of England’s only recorded 12 month snow patch ! |
Until recently I used to walk there, often several times a week. Lovely place, but never saw anything approaching said great glacier... Course, not being speliologically minded, I was above ground.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

On the original question- yes, that sounds like a great idea. Living in the flat bit to the east of the Peak District I miss the hills and there never seem to be any ski films showing near me. I’d support a snow sports/film night a bit closer to home!

Sounds like a good idea, although I'm a bit out of the way.
Don't know if your aware of https://www.banff-uk.com/ which has been touring every year for over 5 years now. There is a couple of viewings in Malvern, might be something closer. They usually announce a handful more dates in the new year too.

Have a word with Outside in Hathersage, it’s the sort of thing they might be interested in putting on in the cafe upstairs if there was enough interest.

The Sheffield Adventure Film Festival usually has a decent proportion of snow-themed offerings; next one's in March, I think. I'm sure I've been to something in Buxton too in the past, might've been the Banff one.
