2014 Wintersköl Dates announced:
January 9-12, 2014

HISTORY OF WINTERSKÖL
Wintersköl, Aspen's annual "toast to winter," dates back to a quiet January in 1951. Jack DePagter, previous owner of the Holland House, created Wintersköl. In 1949 Jack began bartending at the Hotel Jerome. Noticing a lull in business during the 3 weeks after Christmas when the ski lifts closed, Jack decided that there must be something he and his friends could do to bring people into Aspen. His idea: a winter carnival to celebrate Aspen's unique Nordic lifestyle, like those at European ski resorts. With that idea...Wintersköl was born! Today, the four day celebration features on-mountain activities, Soupsköl, the Canine Fashion Show, winterfest, fireworks, and much more.

5:30 - 6:30 p.m. Why Goethe? Why 1949? Why Aspen?
Doerr-Hosier Center, Aspen Meadows. A Fireside Chat hosted by the Aspen Institute. Something very strange happened in Aspen in the summer 1949. Even though there were very few rooms, 2000 people came here. They were from every state except for two, and they came from 11 different countries. Come find out who came; what they were so "worked up" about, and why Time Magazine featured this unusual meeting in Aspen, Colorado as its cover story on July 11, 1949! After seeing this multi-media presentation, you will have a new understanding of the "big bang" that caused Aspen to be the unique spiritual, cultural, intellectual and recreational center that it is today. Narrated by Steven Wickes, former Director of the Society of Fellows at the Aspen Institute.
